In the Philippines, Tokyo Karaage Agetate has already established a growing presence with branches in BF Homes, Parañaque and Fisher Mall, Malabon, with the newly opened Cloverleaf branch completing its trio of Metro Manila locations.

Drawing inspiration from its success in Japan, where it boasts over 200 outlets nationwide, the brand remains committed to offering the same authentic flavor, consistency, and quality that have made it a household favorite abroad.

At the new Cloverleaf branch, diners can indulge in Tokyo Karaage Agetate’s signature fried chicken, crispy on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside, prepared fresh upon order. Each serving can be paired with a selection of flavorful Japanese-style sauces, ranging from sweet and savory to bold and umami-rich, allowing for a customized dining experience.

What makes their karaage special is the meticulous process behind every bite. Instead of relying on prolonged marination, which can cause the meat to lose flavor and moisture, Tokyo Karaage Agetate uses a unique technique that rapidly infuses flavors into the chicken. This ensures each piece remains juicy, tender, and full of authentic taste.

To maintain peak quality even 15 minutes after cooking, the team has perfected a special batter that keeps the chicken crispy on the outside while locking in succulence within. Fried at high temperatures, the result is a perfect balance of crunch and flavor that stays delicious, even during delivery.

To preserve this crispness, sauces are delivered separately, allowing diners to savor the full texture of the freshly fried coating. Each karaage is marinated in a sweet soy sauce blend, already flavorful on its own, but made even more enjoyable when paired with Tokyo Karaage Agetate’s five original dipping sauces, crafted fresh daily to delight both kids and adults alike.

A Karaage Plate includes 3 or 5 pieces of karaage, rice, original sauce, and a regular drink. You may choose from Nanban Tartar (3 pcs-Php 299; 5 pcs-Php 369); Spicy Mayo (3 pcs-Php 289; 5 pcs-Php 359); Teriyaki (3 pcs-Php 279; 5 pcs-Php 349); Plain (3 pcs-Php 249; 5 pcs-Php 319); and Mentaiko Mayo (3 pcs-Php 299; 5 pcs-Php 369).
