Japanese Carinderia: Suzuki Japanese Food House

BOS has been talking about this Japanese carinderia, Suzuki Japanese Food House, for the past few weeks before we ate there. Two weeks ago, while on our way back from the bed maker, we decided to stop by and check what's the fuss all about.


From what the BOS read from other blogs, the chef is a retired Japanese chef who married a Filipina. He wasn't there when we went there though.


It was a bit hard to find because there's no sign board. I just saw the "menu" hanging outside this carinderia! 
But it's actually on the corner of Hermosa and Clemente Sts! And the landmark is this groto(?). This is in Tondo, by the way.
Here's a photo of the carinderia. This was an impromptu so photos from iPhone only.
The BOS and I were just saying that it's been a long time since we ate and hung out in a carinderia. Mine was from college days pa!

They have a menu hung outside and they also have a laminated menu with pictures.

Here's the kitchen. You can actually see how they prepare the food. I think it's clean naman. Or pikit-mata ka na lang! Hehe.. 
This lovely lady took our order!
We had our food to go and ate it at home. Here's what we ordered:

Mixed Tempura. 2pcs Ebi Tempura and lots of mixed veggie Tempura for Php150. Yummy!!!

Gyoza (5pcs) Php45 and Tonkatsu Php80. The tonkatsu was gooooddd!

Ramen Php80
Everything was good except for the ramen. Ramen tastes like normal noodles, parang lomi. Hehe But sulit na din diba? Our bill was Php345 for everything. It tastes homemade which we liked very much!



We'll definitely go back again!

  1. Yum! Where is this exactly?
    The food looks great and the price is unbeatable. However, I think I will cringe at the sight of the kitchen, hahahaha! At least it made you feel better to be able to see the source of the food. As long as walang ipis, ayos, that's what I say!

    It's in Tondo, Manila near our place.

    Haha, pikit-mata na nga lang ako. Wala naman akong nakitang ipis or daga or any unwanteds.
