California roll, gyoza, salmon croquette, shrimp tempura, eggplant tempura, sweet potato tempura. Buffet
DADS Kamayan Saisaki, Manila PHILIPPINES
I wasn’t all that hungry after the Filipino plate, but I figured it was a buffet and I should eat my money’s worth (stupid American mentality!). Lol! The items on this plate weren’t as satisfying though. Tempura is not the best item to choose in a buffet because the batter gets either really soggy or rock hard after sitting out for a while. Maybe the Japanese section isn’t as popular in this restaurant because everything tasted a little dry and old to me. š¦
Miso soup.

California rolls are accepted in Japan, now. I love it! I love spider rolls and Alaska rolls, too.
Me too! We know they’re not really Japanese but there are so many creative rolls that they come up with these days. I’m more concerned about the flavor. If it’s delicious, it’s delicious!
Funny thing. I’ve talked to several Japanese people (I live in Japan) about California rolls, and they all think it’s strange.
Yeah, it was invented by a Canadian (British Colombia) sushi guy for western palates to ease white people into sushi. We know it’s not real sushi but when it’s made properly with fresh crab, it’s still pretty delicious!
