If you are in Manila and you are craving for Japanese food, head over to Robatayaki Izakaya Nobunaga sushi restaurant at 1644 A. Mabini Street, Malate, Manila.

The servings are big, hindi tinipid ang ingredients.

The ingredients are fresh. The taste is just right. My katsudon was crunchy and sa totoo lang, I had a hard time eating the whole order because the size is big.

The prices are reasonable. Expect to pay 800-1,000 for 2-3 people.

The place is big and there are enough tables to seat around approximately 40 people or even more. Photo taken around opening time.

The eating area is cool. You can see the food preparation in the open kitchen. There is parking for around 3-4 cars in front. You can also see a lot of Japanese eating in this restaurant.  The owner is usually in the restaurant overseeing the operations.

One of the Sustainable Growth Development goals of the Philippine government is to reduce maternal death rate. As of 2015, 162 deaths per 100,000 live births have been recorded and that is too high. The Millenium Development Goal target however is as low as 52 deaths pero 100,000 live births.

There are three contributing factors to maternal death, which is a major concern of  the Department of Health:

1. Delays in reaching appropriate health centers

2. Delays in health care provisions for expectant mothers

3. Delays in seeking medical help
