First, the black cod miso, followed by new style sashimi, rock shrimp tempura, yellowtail sashimi with jalapeno and beef tobanyaki. These classics are the traditional Japanese favourites that have Filipino clientele lining up out their doors. Everything from hot dishes, cold dishes, yakimono, kushiyaki, sushi, sashimi, and even vegetarian food are on the menu at Nobu and those searching for more familiar flavours can indulge in innovative items such as the kurobota pork sisig and the special Nobu halo-halo.
