Sometimes, we wanted to discover new foods to satisfy our taste buds. We already have a list of the restaurants and cafes to visit, and it's just a matter of "when". Are you also like this? Because I am.
Whenever I got a chance to discover a newly-opened or a trending restaurant that I haven't tried eating to yet, I make sure to plan a day just going there. And that's what we did when we went to Yakimix Restaurant in Habor Point Ayala Center, in Olongapo City.
We were welcomed and assisted by their staff. Everyone was friendly, and they made sure we get the most comfortable spot in the restaurant. When we got inside, I already saw the buffet, and felt excited with the grilling.
One of the staffs came to our table to arrange our utensils, and also to assist us with using the smokeless grill. After all the details shared with us, it was time to grab some foods on the buffet.
Of course, I went straight to the area where seafoods are displayed. They have a lot of options here. You can choose from the shrimp, salmon, and the chikuwa.
I only got us a few pieces of shrimp and salmon. Because I am after their beef and other meats in the next section. It is what we came here for. To grill authentic beef, duck meat, and more.

I moved aside and got another plate in my hands. Now, I need to grab some side dishes. There are some crabstick, fishcake, luncheon meat, tofu, and many more. Maybe I only got a few slices since these are not the main course.
There are also some vegetables for side dishes. They got some onion, tomato, and some lettuce as well. You can get some for a more perfect combo.

I put everything on our table before going back again. This time, I am eyeing for the meats. I grabbed another plate, of course, and went straight to the meat section. And there, I saw everything that we came for.
There are a lot of options for meat. They have beef, plain pork, duck meats, and many more flavored and marinated options. There are also some marinated chicken, and different kinds of sausage. I got everything I wanted to try and went back to the table.

As I sat down, my partner was already busy grilling. He was so shocked with everything I got, but yeah, I just discovered this restaurant so I wanted to try a lot.
He grilled the meats first, since it's my request. While I started eating some of the side dishes I got. Upon checking our table and the plates in front of us, he also managed to get some Tempura, Chicken Fingers, Sushi, and Japchae. He knows what I want, truly.
We already started the feast while grilling. And all I can say is that, it's worth it. It was a bit pricey here compared to our restaurants, but it was fine. We savored every food we had here, and it was an amazing grilling experience.
