Mr. Kurosawa (Eastwood Mall)
Last sunday, even though a bit hesitant, hb and I decided to try Mr. Kurosawa restaurant in Eastwood Mall. Hesitant because our Sumo Sam (sister restaurant of Mr. Kurosawa) experience in Shangri-la Mall wasn’t very pleasant (bad service, small food serving, i could go on you know but I’d rather not because this post is for Mr. Kurosawa).
Anyway, we ordered the following:
- Crunchy Tuna Roll (PHP 189)
- Tasted like normal quality maki; nothing special here
- This dish contains 2 types of toppings – raw tuna and crunchy tuna
- Crazy Roll
- Tasted so much like the Crunch Tuna Roll; i think the only difference is the crunchy topping of the other
- Pepper Chicken Fillet (PHP 348)
- I was a little worried about this dish because there’s a similar dish at Sumo Sam and I disked it so much
- BUT! the one being served at Mr. Kurosawa tasted great!
- This dish is served with a yummy cup of fried rice
- I personally recommend this dish; just a bit pricey though
- Salmon Wasabi Cream Sauce (PHP 338)
- Although I didn’t really feel wasabi’s presence here, this dish didn’t disappoint
- This dish is filled with pepper tidbits and even though the salmon usually overpowers the taste of any ingredient you season it with, the peppery taste in this dish blended well
- Big serving; I thought that the price is well justified by its flavor and serving
…some more of my thoughts
- Great service - constant water refills, great-tasting complimentary tea, courtesty to customers
- Our maki orders was served in an instant
- The only downside here is that it took around 40 mins before they finally served our main course
Overall, ours was a great experience at Mr. Kurosawa and I’m giving them the following ratings:
- Ambiance – 6 because the place is kinda off for me; it felt like a red district bar/resto
- Value for Money – 7 because they serve relatively big portions and their dishes tasted good
- Flavor - 7 because although their food is great tasting, i was a bit disappointed at how similar their 2 maki roll dishes taste
My Thai Kitchen in Eastwood
Eastwood is a place that’s so dear to my heart. Not only did I found my first job there, I also found my lifetime partner there 
We’ve been wanting to give this resto a try but they’re always full on weekends so we went there on a weekday instead =D We were lucky because there was one table left! whew!
The look and feel of the place is really nice, it is modern but it still gives you that homy feeling. The only complaint I have with the place is the space, the resto is kind of small and it can only cater to a number of people.
We ordered the following:
1. Pla Tod for PHP 205 – Crispy Fish Fingers with Green Chili Dip
This dish tasted kind of bland and the dip did not go well with the fish fingers so we requested for a chili sauce instead and the the fish finger instantly tasted better.
2. Gai Phat Bai Kraphrau for PHP235 – Stir Fried Chicken with Crispy Basil
This dish was very original and tasted really great. I definitely recommend ordering this one when you go to My Thai Kitchen.
3. Khap Pat Bpuu for PHP250 – Crabmeat Fried Rice
According to hb, kanin palang daw ulam na … need I say more?
