📍 Izikaya Tori Makati

Here’s my honest review after trying some dishes at Izikaya Tori in Makati 🍣

✨ What we ate:

They currently have a promo on sushi rolls, with some options down to just ₱199 — super sulit!

🍣 Toriichizu Roll (₱199)
Slightly spicy with generous pieces of salmon. The sauce really stood out—sobrang sarap.
Rating: 11/10 🔥

🍣 Salmon Tartar Roll (₱199)
I’ve been craving salmon lately, so I had to try this. Fresh and well-balanced flavors—definitely satisfying.
Rating: 10/10

🍚 Katsudon
The sauce leans slightly sweet with a bit of saltiness, so balanced naman overall. A pretty standard katsudon.
Rating: 8/10

🍜 Shoyu Ramen + Chashu (₱300+)
It was okay—nothing too special for me. Maybe I just ordered the most basic option.
Rating: 6.5/10

Overall, the sushi rolls are the highlight here 👌 Worth visiting especially while the promo is ongoing!

Bali Food Recommendations | Ep. 5
📍 Warung Local – Uluwatu, Bali

Aside from Satu, this is one of my favorite warung in Uluwatu. If you’re looking for affordable, masarap, and sulit food in Bali, this place is a must-try.

Their setup is similar to a carinderia or DIY food station, where you can choose from different local dishes, appetizers, and mains. They also offer free crackers with sauce and vinegar, which is a nice extra while waiting for your food.

What we tried:

• Pancake Stack – 9/10 | 45,000 IDR
Fluffy and very generous serving. Perfect if you love breakfast meals. Definitely sulit for the price.

• Smash Avocado – 8.5/10 | 50,000 IDR
Served on sourdough toast with fries. The toast was slightly hard, but overall the flavor is good and the serving size is enough for two people. The fries were also really good.

Overall, Warung Local is a great option in Uluwatu if you want budget-friendly food with good portions and local dining experience.

📍 Satu, Uluwatu – Bali

One of my favorite warung-style restaurants in Bali, especially if you’re staying in Uluwatu. Among the many cafés and restaurants in the area, this place stands out for its consistent food quality, generous servings, and relaxed atmosphere. We enjoyed it so much that we dined here twice during our stay.

Ambiance: 10/10
Calm, comfortable, and welcoming — perfect for both lunch and dinner.

Service: 10/10
Staff are friendly, attentive, and very accommodating.

We dined as a group of four, and here’s everything we ordered:

• Cheesy Beef Rendang – 10/10 | 99,000 IDR
A creative take on one of Indonesia’s most iconic dishes. The beef is juicy, tender, and full of flavor, with a good level of spice. The added cheese surprisingly works well and makes the dish richer.
Highly recommended, especially for Filipino taste buds.

• Sammy’s Beer (Cheeseburger) – 10/10 | 83,000 IDR
One of the highlights of our meals. A medium-rare, juicy beef patty with melted cheese, served with potato wedges. Simple, classic, and executed very well.
A definite must-try.

• Chicken Kung Pao – 75,000 IDR
Included for reference, though this wasn’t my personal order.

• Nasi Goreng Chicken – 7/10 | 69,000 IDR
Good portion size (can be shared), but the rice was slightly bland, salty, and a bit dry. Still filling, but not our top choice.

• Bolognese – 9/10 | 79,000 IDR
Well-balanced and flavorful without being too salty. The beef sauce pairs nicely with the pasta, and you can request extra parmesan cheese if you prefer a richer taste.

• Green Curry Vegetable – 8/10 | 59,000 IDR
Aromatic with a strong curry flavor and mild spiciness. Not too salty and a good option if you enjoy bold, spicy dishes.

They also offer pastries and cakes, priced between 25,000–39,000 IDR, which are great for dessert or takeaway.

Overall, Satu is a solid dining option in Uluwatu—good food, good service, and a place we would definitely return to.

Bali Food Recommendation | Ep. 3 🍽️🌴

📍 Nikuna Warung and Art Gallery

After our temple tour in Ubud, we were looking for the perfect place to eat dinner, and this warung was exactly what we needed.

Since we wanted to try traditional Balinese food, we searched for a warung — which means a small traditional restaurant that serves cheaper, more authentic local food.

✨ Ambiance: 10/10
Peaceful, quiet, and feels like home — perfect pang-relax after a long day.

✨ Service: 10/10
Super kind and welcoming 💛

What we ordered:

🍗 Chicken Wing
10/10 | 30,000 IDR
Who wouldn’t love chicken wings? Not too salty, may konting spice, and the BBQ sauce is really good.

🍜 Mie Goreng
10/10 | 44,000 IDR
The sambal sauce is different from the commercialized ones — mas authentic yung flavor. The noodles and chicken satay are both super tasty!

🍲 Soto Ayam
9/10 | 33,000 IDR
First time namin mag-try ng Soto Ayam. For me, okay siya — not too salty, with just the right hint of spiciness.

If ever babalik kami sa Ubud, definitely babalik kami dito to eat again. Highly recommended if you want authentic Balinese food 🍽️✨

✨ Looking for dessert in Bali?
If you’re currently in Ubud, Bali, this spot is worth checking out, especially if you love coconut-based desserts 🤍

Here’s what we tried:

🍫🥥 Chocolate Cake with Coconut Ice Cream
10/10 | 45,000 IDR
Super sarap! The coconut ice cream is creamy pero hindi masyadong matamis, kaya perfect siya i-pair with their homemade chocolate cake.
The cake tastes like strong cocoa — rich, deep, and very satisfying ✨

🥥🍚 Caramelized Coconut with Glutinous Rice
(Parang Bukayo sa Pilipinas, pero I forgot the exact name 😅)
6/10 | 12,000 IDR
Matamis siya and very coconut-y. It tastes like caramelized coconut mixed with glutinous rice — interesting and very local yung flavor.

🛍️ Bonus:
They also sell coconut-based products na perfect pang-pasalubong!
👉 Try the Roasted Coconut Flakes — masarap as snacks and easy to bring home 👌

If mahilig ka sa coconut desserts, don’t skip this place in Ubud 🌴🥥
