Yurakuen Japanese Restaurant at the Diamond Hotel
Growing up, when shopping malls were just a handful, I remember hanging out at hotels with my family . We love having our afternoon snack at the lobby and later on would continue to have dinner in one of the hotel's food establishments. We would frequent the ones in Ortigas simply because its really near our home. Once in a while though, we would venture further to Makati or Manila to check a new hotel out. One of which was the Diamond Hotel where I remember having buffet dinners at the Palm Court (now called Corniche ) and being prohibited from entering the Sky Bar because we were underage. Mommy and my A-I (ah-yi) loves the tempura at the hotel's Japanese restaurant and they have been telling us about it for more than a decade now. I wonder how come we never were able to try it out ourselves before. At last, the time has come that it was MY turn. Turning 30 , Paul and I celebrated my birthday with our friends from Diamond Hotel . Dinner was set to be at Yurakuen Japane...
