Yakimix Feast


 About the food:

Yakimix is undoubtedly one of the most successful eat-all-you-can concepts in the country today. They offer a mix of various cuisines (Cantonese/Chinese, Japanese, and even Korean). All of these cuisines are available for a reasonable buffet price. It is no wonder people are willing to wait for a long time just to get seated.

To proceed, here are some of the food that we tried there.

their grills are smokeless, meaning you don't have to worry about smelling like food the moment you exit the restaurant.

They offer bottomless red tea. 


For those who love sweets, here are some of their treats. 




Where to buy and how much:


Yakimix has several branches already. I am only familiar with the branches in Trinoma, SM Mall of Asia, and Seaside Market in Pasay.

As for pricing, I remember their buffet price being cheaper on weekday lunches (PHP499+SC) as compared to weekends (PHP580+SC). Bottomless drinks entail an additional (PHP65).

Seoul Garden Buffet



About the food:

A night ago, the news featured korean food in partucular. So today, I'll be posting something Korean as well, Seoul Garden.


This is an eat-all-you can korean cuisine where you can cook your food on the grill or on the the hotpot soup. You can pick among a variety of soupstock or broths. Some can be plain while some can be really spicy.


There are also sauces that can please any palate and bring out flavor in any barbecue.


You'll be given a rice to eat.


One thing to take note of is that the grill may be cooking too fast because its very hot. So if you feel you're going to take some time to eat, it's best to lower the temperature (ask the waiter) or don't put everything in one grilling.


One should really avoid burning the barbecue. Creating the perfect barbeque is an art.


It's not just all meat in an eat all-you-can. You can also pick the side dishes you want.


Where to buy and how much:

Seoul Garden's dinner buffet costs PHP680. Considering the abundance of eat-all-you-cans, this one may be a bit more pricey. However, if you don't want to venture too far from the comforts of a mall, this one is located at SM North Edsa Annex ground floor.
