I used to have two favorite Japanese restaurants in Cebu, now there are three. The third, Sachi, is a young one, having just opened last November 2014. And the reasons why Sachi made it to my favorites?
1. It's just in my neighborhood. (I admit, not a good reason for those living in Cebu City or Lapu–Lapu City.)
2. I love their pork and squid okonomiyaki, a Japanese "pancake" or "pizza" made of cabbage and pork or octopus/squid. Sachi's okonomiyaki has the right amount of pork and squid...read: I don't have to massacre my okonomiyaki to find the pork and squid.
3. For just Php 160, I can have a bowl of tender and tasty pork teriyaki with rice and a bowl of miso soup, too.
4. Sachi uses Japanese rice. (Which is kind of bad because Japanese rice is so yummy, I am bound to eat more.)
5. If the craving for ramen strikes, Sachi's shoyu ramen would nip it in the bud. The chashu (pork) is tender and the noodles is not overcooked.
6. Sachi makes their own ramen noodles.
7. Sachi offers oishii and affordable Japanese food.
