Here’s a closer look at @halfsaints.jp courtesy

Here’s a closer look at @halfsaints.jp courtesy of our writer/photographer @campfiremedia as he samples some of the items you shouldn’t miss on a visit to this Tokyo outpost.

1. Half Saints co-founder @jmarci

2. Half Saints Tokyo is located at Kato Building 1F, 4-2-4 Hongo, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo (near Hongo Sanchome Station)

3. @artsybeaver of @onezerodesignco shaped the look of @halfsaints’ Tokyo branch

4. The Hokkaido blue cheese cloud cookie is light and fluffy cookie with oregano and blue cheese from Hokkaido that’s best paired with wine or this @vinvie.jp cider

5. The iconic crema de fruta is slightly different from the Manila version. The custard is infused with Madagascar vanilla beans while the gelée is made from VinVie Rosé Cider. “We will also feature fruits in season but for this one, I used strawberries, kiwi, persimmon, kumquat, and pink grapefruit. We will also put edible flowers once we are ready to sell,” says Arciaga.

6. Clockwise from top left:

a. Eringi and goat cheese is classic Half Saints puff pizza flavor but in Japan, they use King Trumpet mushrooms sautéed in garlic, soy sauce, and white wine then topped with goat cheese and housemade balsamic vinegar reduction

b. Pork sausage, tomato, and basil confit on a bed of Hokkaido cream cheese mix

c. Hokkaido blue cheese on Hokkaido cream cheese finished with sweet and tangy housemade citrus jam to round out the marriage of flavors

d. Pimento sauce (housemade pickled red capsicum and mix of Japanese cheeses) topped with jamón serrano, persimmon, and oregano

e. Aged miso (fermented for 2 years) on clouds of Hokkaido creame and finished with lemon slices and zest

f. The ratatouille is decked with tomatoes, zucchini, and eggplant, then smothered with housemade marinara and pesto

7. Coco Choux is their Tokyo ode to the bestselling Merci Buko. It’s a choux au craquelin filled with coconut cream custard and whipped cream, then finished with a roasted mix of nuts and powdered sugar

Much like a good cast-iron pan, wooden chopping boards are solid kitchen essentials whose proper maintenance yields great returns.

If cast-iron cookware relies on proper seasoning to ensure a non-stick surface and an overall even cook, wooden boards need to be oiled regularly to prevent it from becoming brittle and to maintain that smooth surface that is gentler on knife edges.

A few extra steps in caring for these kitchen essentials can go a long way, so here are five that can extend the life of your wooden chopping boards for many years. Find the full feature via the link in bio.

1. Expect the limited @everythingnicecafe and Good Shepherd collaboration to be ubiquitous this season. While the ube cake and crinkles nod to a classic Filipino flavor, these treats have a big-impact purpose, too.

2. Originating in Las Piñas before opening in Katipunan soon after, @stayupespressobar’s third branch in Kapitolyo stands as both a statement of their success and mission to offer a “fun, inclusive space for all” across the capital.

3. Alongside the opening of its new branch in Molito Lifestyle Center, Alabang, chef @chefelysalar’s @patisserielechouxcolat launches a new dessert cake—Passionfruit Dacquoise—that is inspired by the classic Pinoy sans rival. “It has layers and layers of hazelnut passion vanille, homemade hazelnut praline, passion fruit gelée, vanilla bean white chocolate whip panna cotta, citrus sponge cake, tablea chocolate cremeux, almond hazelnut dacquoise, hazelnut mousse, and almond croustillant.”

4. Filipinos seem to be spoilt for choice this holiday season with @shakeshackph’s new limited-edition menu that embraces flavors from New York steakhouses. Whether tucking into the horseradish peppercorn burger made with 100 percent Angus beef blend or simply sipping a tiramisu shake (cream cheese, coffee, vanilla frozen custard), the flavors being served up this month will make for a fabulous Christmas spread.

Despite her youth, 23-year-old interior design student Evonne Limsui—who designed @yugen.restaurant—shows deft experience in translating her vision into reality. She visualizes vacancy, portrays paucity, and salutes smart scarcity. She dismantles notions of ‘what could have been’ and ‘what more could be’ on the blank walls of the restaurant and instead makes a case for ‘this is how it should always be.’

As a result, Yūgen Japanese Restaurant manages to remain deliberately expressive, warm, and creatively constructed amid the architectural hush. You understand that design is something to be devoured just as much as the extensive assembly of washoku.
