  • Tokyo Milk Cheese Factory Café in Parañaque: A Restaurant First of Its Kind in the World
  • Ever since Tokyo Milk Cheese Factory made its way to the Philippines last 2016, we have been graced with creatively delicious sweets proudly made with a good combination of high-quality milk and cheese from Hokkaido, Japan.

    If you happen to love their signature Cow Cow Ice soft-serve ice cream and Japanese Cheese Cake, you are in for the best indulgence of your life as the Tokyo-based import opened the very first restaurant of its kind here in Manila!

    Tokyo Milk Cheese Factory Café has finally opened its doors to the public in January by opening not only one but two cafés in one month!

    The first and flagship store opened at Ayala Malls Manila Bay in Parañaque City, while the second branch at Estancia Mall in Capitol Commons, Pasig City followed shortly.

    The ribbon-cutting ceremony for both branches was led by Tokyo Milk Cheese Factory owner Mr. Seigo Kawagoe and I-Foods Group, Inc. founder and CEO Mr. Bryan Tiu, the company that brought Tokyo Milk Cheese Factory to the Philippines.

    This one-of-a-kind restaurant surely has attracted tons of foodies since its opening because of its unique offers featuring elevated versions of Japanese comfort food and confections.

    Unlike the stalls, Tokyo Milk Cheese Factory Café offers a dynamic menu not limited to their best-selling confections such as the Cow Cow Ice soft-serve ice cream and Japanese Cheese Cake that changed the dessert game completely.

    Their menu is comprised of a range of appetizers, soups, salad, pasta, sandwiches, mains, omurice, and, of course—desserts.

    The all-original dishes are created and prepared in Manila by their Japan-trained team of Filipino chefs and crew. Further, all ingredients are sourced directly from Japan to Manila on a regular basis to ensure that all their dishes are not just delicious but also unique.

    First and foremost, when visiting the café, you must try their signature Milk Pie (Php 100 per piece; Php 500, 1 box or 5 pieces), a crispy flaky pastry filled with luscious Hokkaido milk cream.

    These freshly-baked cream pie puff bites are basically heaven on earth with its crunchy golden layers that envelop a dollop of milky cream.

    Since Japan is known for airy soufflé pancake recipes, Tokyo Milk Cheese Factory Café also serves Japanese Pancakes (Php 210). A serving of these fluffy pancakes comes with your choice of toppings such as berries, chocolate, or whipped cream.

    Another Japanese staple dish included in their menu is the Hayashi Beef Omurice (Php 395), a combination of omurice and hayashi rice with a thick demi-glace sauce and beef.

    For sandwich choices, they have 12-Hour Short Rib Sandwich (Php 485) made with sourdough loaf filled with tender pulled beef ribs, parsley aioli, and pickled red cabbage served with house potato chips on the side.

    As Tokyo Milk Cheese Factory upgraded to first-of-its-kind café and restaurant, its spacious interior widely features the brand’s simple yet fun “kitchen” image with light-washed wood panels, marble tables, and an ensemble of bright fixtures.

    Surely, this café is the ideal place to hang out with friends for a simple lunch or sweet merienda in a uniquely Japanese way!
