Food Trip: Sambokojin Yakiniku Smokeless Grill

For those who are wondering what Sambokojin means, well here's an introduction for you guys. Sambo-Kojin is the name of a Japanese kami (God) who has three faces and two pair of hands. He was known as the God of the Kitchen. Yakiniku on the other hand means grilled meat in Japanese. While "Smokeless" and "Grill" need not be explained further.

"Nuff said!" as they say, what else should we know about a restaurant named after the Japanese God of the Kitchen... Just kidding. Join me as we go on a food trip at Sambo Kojin Smokeless Grill.
Yup! We're satisfied!

You can see the crew preparing Japanese dishes

 For those who doesn't know Sambo Kojin Smokeless Grill is a buffet restaurant with several branches in the Philippines. The restaurant is known for their raw, grilled, and cooked Japanese and Korean dishes. 

What I like about the restaurant is it's layout. (I'm talking about the branch in Southmall unless all branches have the same layout) I like the idea that the buffet area is placed in the middle and it has an oval structure. It lessens the chances of a crowd build up and it also gives everybody a chance to try out everything.
