Having the chance to savor the authentic Japanese food at Botejyu made my Sunday after braving the rain and heavy traffic. Watching the Samurai chefs perform their culinary artistry live was also such a cool experience. Their skillful techniques and attention to detail truly brought the essence of Japanese cuisine to life.
Last Sunday, June 30, the kitchen at Botejyu SM East Ortigas was once again taken over by the Samurai Iron Chefs, continuing their culinary campaign across the Philippines. Renowned for its authentic Japanese cuisine, Botejyu welcomed two Samurai Chefs from Japan, who brought their expertise and innovative flair to the restaurant, creating a unique and flavorful dining experience.
Chef Satoshi Sasaki showcased his mastery with okonomiyaki, particularly impressing diners with his premium mix for the moonlight egg oko. Michelin-starred Chef Takayuki Osanai elevated the prawn tempura platter, demonstrating his meticulous attention to detail and distinctive kitchen style.
The Botejyu Philippines 7 Samurai Iron Chef campaign, launched in February 2024, aims to captivate Filipino food enthusiasts by blending traditional Japanese culinary artistry with local flavors. This initiative not only offers diners a chance to enjoy exquisite meals but also fosters a deeper appreciation for Japanese cuisine and culture.
With 90 branches nationwide, Botejyu has established itself as a premier destination for food lovers seeking a fusion of tradition and creativity. As part of Viva Foods International, Botejyu continues to expand its reach, bringing authentic Japanese dining experiences to popular locations across the Philippines.
