Something's strangely delicious awaits you at Nobu Restaurant

As soon as I entered the Nobu Restaurant, my senses were competing against one another. My eyes kept wandering as they try to devour the unique interiors and fixtures that adorned every corner of the hotel restaurant. My sense of smell was trying to search for the aromatic feast. As I heard the wait staff briskly walking in an out of the kitchen doors.

My taste buds felt like it wanted to jump out and everything made me feel its going to be a great start of the day. The one breakfast dish that caught my attention was the Champorado Nobu Style with Bacon furikake. It had me on its thick chocolatey cocoa flavor with bacon's slight crunchy saltiness on top, it was heavenly good, I tell you, I finished one and ordered another bowl. I highly recommend this on top of their other breakfast signature dishes.

Nobu Restaurant is a contemporary fine dining venue which accommodates 335 dining guests. It has a two private dining rooms; a sushi bar; floating water cabanas; two tepanyaki tables and a Chef's Table. I got to experience Nobu's Breakfast Specialties and its delectable and mouth watering buffet last June 6 with selected bloggers. We were greeted at the restaurant lobby by the General Manager of Nobu Hotel Manila, Mr. Marlon Hirsh, we had pleasantries about the restaurant's interior, breakfast specialties and its signature dishes. He toured us on the hotel rooms, spa and gym after a hearty breakfast.

 We were served the best Breakfast Minis, all the food served tasted and cooked the way I liked my breakfast should be. It concludes of the following;

French toast

Shioyaki (Chef's Daily Grilled Protein Selection)

Champorado Nobu Style (Chocolate Rice Porridge with Bacon Furikake)
