It is not new for Romulo Café to reinvent classic Pinoy dishes and elevate the Filipino cuisine game a step higher. The café will do it again and this time, a hot, sizzling sisig is at the spotlight.

Enjoy Romulo Café’s Chicken Inasal Sisig, which uses chicken strips instead of traditional pork meat mixed with spices and chicken skin chicharon on top.

Check it out at all Romulo Café local branches: Scout Tuazon, Tomas Morato, Quezon City; Jupiter Street, Makati; and Azumi Hotel in Ayala Alabang.

Curry was introduced to Japan during the Meiji era by the British, at a time when India was under the colonial rule of the British Raj. Curry has evolved into one of Japan’s most beloved dishes, eaten at least once a week on average.

Discover all of Kitsho’s delectable options that include curry nabe dishes of either pork, chicken, seafood or beef.

Katsu-kari is a breaded, deep-fried cutlet that’s usually pork or chicken and smothered with curry sauce. The use of beef, on the other hand, symbolized the opening of Japan to outside influences, notably during the Meiji era (1868 to 1912).

And as special perk, all curry dish orders enjoy a 20 percent discount from your tab. Also, diners get to enjoy a 15 percent off from a la carte dishes, with the exception of lunch set menus. Moreover, with August being the height of summer in Japan, you may want to sample its summer staple, the eel, or unagi.

If there’s one thing that would perfectly cap your curry experience at Kitsho, it’s soft-serve ice cream, available in matcha, black sesame, vanilla and wasabi.
