Japanese restaurant Pepper Lunch has become a favorite of mine ever since I discovered its branch at Eastwood Mall's third level. I simply head over to their branch and order from the wide array of dishes whenever I crave a hearty meal. What makes Pepper Lunch stand out is its unique sizzling stone plate which is almost similar to the one used for serving sisig (chopped and stir-fried pork cheek and jowl.) Made using patented technology from the Land of the Rising Sun, this plate is heated up to 260 degrees Celsius -- more than twice the temperature of boiling water -- for one minute. Thus, the dishes are literally sizzling hot when served.
The patented technology also permits the plate to hold heat longer -- keeping the food hot for a longer period, too. You can also control how well you want your food, such as steaks and beef slices, to be cooked! Just leave it for a longer period on the stone plate to get it well done, and put it on top of vegetables or rice if you prefer medium-rare steak. Pepper Lunch also allows diners to season their dishes with four different sauces: amakuchi (honey brown), karakuchi (garlic soy), onion, and teriyaki.
Here are three of my favorites from Pepper Lunch.
Until the next post, bon appetit!
