Have you ever imagined that cheese and meat would be a perfect combo? I’ve tried it at Cheese Mookata Banawe, a buffet filled with a variety of meat, side dishes and of course, cheese!
It may not look like it, but I really love going and exploring more buffets. So when I discovered the newest restaurant in Banawe, I immediately wanted to try it.
Mookata Buffet originated from Singapore and was brought to the Philippines by Cheese Moookata Banawe. Mookata is a Thai-style barbecue steamboat filled with melted cheese. In Thai, Mookata means pork.







It was my first time seeing this kind of grill where there’s also a space around it where you can put water and steam other variety of food. While grilling meat or seafood, you can also create your own soup shabu-shabu style, or simply steam them.




I was excited to see the cheese starting to melt because I really love cheese! At first I can’t imagine how meat dipped in cheese would taste like because it’s very unlikely that we combine cheese with meat, but believe me it was really good!
