“Haha! Look at you…you look sooo happy!!!”

Cherry the Manic Shopper would say that again and again whenever I put something in my mouth during our lunch at Tsukiji. I couldn’t help but smile while savoring the glorious food.

Tsukiji, named after the biggest fish market in the world that is located in Tokyo, is one of the most authentic Japanese restaurants in the Metropolis. According to owner Chef J. Gamboa (the same group behind Milky Way and El Cirkulo), three times weekly, they actually have someone go to Tsukiji, Tokyo in the morning to buy seafood. Sometimes, Chef J goes there himself! The fresh goodies are then brought to Manila the same day via Japan Airlines where it remains chilled, not frozen! By lunch, they can be on your plate! (Chef J.’s tip: for the adventurous ones, make sure you go to Tsukiji on a Friday for lunch or dinner! Unique seafood products are brought in Friday mornings!)

Here’s what we had!
