flight of ideas

(Matagal-tagal na ‘to sa drafts folder ko…kailangan na i-evict! )

The first restaurant we visited for the Davao Food Appreciation Tour was Tadakuma Japanese Restaurant.

It was raining when we got there, but it was warm and cozy inside the resto.

I eat Japanese food, but I’m not too fond of sushi and sashimi. I was also concerned with Markku since he’s not really into Japanese dishes as well. But, I was happy to see that the food they served included more of the “normal cooked Japanese meals”

From all the dishes served my favorites were the Sukiyaki, the Yakisoba, and the fried rice.

The Sukiyaki’s soup was so tasty and the beef was so tender.

I love the Yakisoba noodles, which I hardly order in other Japanese restos I go to. (Probably because I’m more fond of the “instant Yakisoba” ) Unfortunately I didn’t get to take a picture of it.

We were also served with Gyoza, one of  Tadakuma’s best-selling dishes. I think the secret is in their sauce.

We also tried the Atuyaki, a savory tofu dish. It was different, but also yummy.

And of course, a Japanese meal is not complete without my favorite California Maki (well, MY Japanese meal )…

…and fresh sashimi

I also enjoyed this bean sprout dish, but I’m not sure what it’s called though.

Overall, I enjoyed lunch very much. Using chopsticks to eat didn’t stop me from eating a lot.

I also appreciated the green tea they served for us. I’m not fond of tea because of its usual bland taste, but it was very refreshing to the palate after the meal.

So, If you’re in Davao and you suddenly crave Japanese food, just head on to the Damosa Business Center and visit Tadakuma.

Arigato-gozaimasu to Tadakuma for the wonderful lunch they served us.

The 2009 DFAT was brought to us by Davao Delicious and Davao Foodie.
