Japanese, Sunday lunch with the family

So after mass: we planned on eating at a Japanese restaurant and we conveniently found a Japanese, smokeless-grill buffet not so far from church: Sambokojin. It was our first time eating there and we plan that it won't  be our last.

 What attracts people most is the variety of raw food that would be grilled by the customer at their table. 

Here you can find pork, fish, chicken, etc.

 

 Of course, what would a Japanese restaurant be without Sushi..

 and what would a buffet be without dessert!

Mom went on ahead and started off at the salad section.. Mmh!

 This was my first plate. I didn't eat much.. I don't know why, but i got full right away. 

On my plate: Chicken Katsu Don, raw fish and chicken, salmon balls, an egg roll, California Maki sushi and a lunch meal wouldn't be good with rice on the side, right? I may be eating Japanese food, but i'm still Filipino!

There's a tiny grill in the middle of each table and that's where you grill the raw food on your own. My little brother was amazed having it in front of him and insists on coming back to the restaurant that taught him how to "cook" as he says.

Everyone's favorite restaurant drink: Iced tea!! I don't drink soda so this is always my pick and sometimes fruit shakes.

 Like father- like son, right!

Me and my brother are suckers for Sashimi (raw fish)

I usually get at least two main course plates before i get my dessert; but i couldn't help it! My first glimpse of the dessert section just made me drool. I'm also a sucker for ice scream..

So, when we got full we just started taking a bit more pictures (we like doing that). See the little man? He never lets go of his PSP. 

Over all; our first visit to Sambokojin was stupendous (although i can't really pronounce or remember the spelling with out looking back up at the first picture). The food was amazing, the service and the place was very convenient. My family and I, myself are looking forward to the next visit. I favor this restaurant if you and your family or your friends are craving for Japanese food, as well.
