First Dine Out for 2023 at Yoshi-meat-su Unlimited Yakiniku Cainta

Wazzup Pilipinas!?

First dine out for 2023, and we chose eating Korean Samgyupsal at Yoshi-meat-su Unlimited Yakiniku Cainta branch....located along Ortigas Extension just a few blocks away from Cainta junction.

We picked this branch since it's nearer to our Pasig residence. We came from our Montalban, Rizal residence where we spent the new year, and on coming back to our Pasig residence, we decided to have lunch out....something heavier and filling than usual so we chose samgyupsal which is among those we missed during the pandemic.

We enjoyed every meat and side dish served. Pero lugi talaga kami sa mga unli at buffets dahil hindi na kami malakas kumain...medyo health conscious na talaga kami kaya bawas na sa pagkabundat....but that's okay, we are already full and satisfied after just a couple of reordering tasty meats and side dishes.

Located at the second floor, the restaurant is very spacious, clean and orderly. Surprisingly, the place did not smell of smoke from all the grilling. We did arrive at around 2pm coming from Montalban, Rizal.

We were actually very hungry all the way from our 11:30am departure. Waze made us take the Sumulong Highway route which was quite a long travel time.

Kudos to the server who helped to manually reorder our meats, side dishes and calamansi juice drinks, since we were too focused on grilling and eating and wanted to skip using their digital system of reordering. We were using one hand in grilling our meats and the other to hold the lettuce, so both hands were too occupied. It's quite a hassle to have to let go, clean our hands and reorder for replenishment.

Though we don't really eat as much as before,  having to use the smartphone to reorder still means getting our phones dirty.

So we would again like to thank the male server who kept coming back to our table asking what we want to eat next. He was actually multitasking doing several tasks while  courteously attending to the diners.

Also thanks to the other server who informed us that each of us gets free ice cream bars for dessert.

The female crew, and apparently also the cashier, who welcomed us at the restaurant, was also very helpful in answering our inquiries.

Per person is charged P649 so our bill for two is almost P1300. The dining experience was worth every peso.
