Santouka now in Manila

Santouka was first introduced to us by Amado Fores.  He told Jaime to try it while we were in Hong Kong and Jaime dragged his Papa to go with him

When it opened here in Manila, we knew it sounded familiar and remembered Amado’s recommendation.

We have been hearing about the long lines but we braved it one friday night.  We tried to go early at around 6pm and there was still a line and the restaurant was packed!

Finally we got a table but had to share with others, we requested to be transferred when a booth became available and they gave it to us

I was amazed at the number of staff they have here and they are all alert and standing by the counter watching and making sure everything is okay

We asked about the sizes so the waitress brought us the different sizes of bowls 🙂

James wanted to come here because our brother Mike was raving about this in particular- the pork cheeks

So all three boys had pork cheeks!

So happy they have other things in the menu for people like me 🙂
