The “sakura” or cherry blossom is one of the most revered symbols in Japan. It symbolizes spring time, the season of the year that stands for the renewal of life. The bloom of the beautiful sakura, and its poetic meaning, is what drives thousands of tourists to Japan regularly.
You don’t need to book a flight to ring in the Japanese cherry blossom tradition, however; Tenya, Japan’s #1 Tempura Tendon, is releasing special sakura-themed sets for cherry blossom fans!
A special take on their signature tempura donburi, the Sakura Tendon set showcases Tenya’s signature tempura donburi — Japanese rice topped with 2 Black Tiger Prawns, Itoyori fish (Seabream), Okiami (Krill) Kakiage, Nori and Green Beans, with Original Don Tare sauce poured over, and served with miso soup.
Meanwhile, you can also enjoy a sakura feast with the Sakura Teishoku, a festive set that consists of a basket of 2 Black Tiger Prawns, Itoyori fish (Seabream), Okiami (krill) Kakiage, Nori and Green Beans with Cold Somen, Japanese rice and potato salad on the side.
To heighten the cherry blossom feeling, Tenya partnered with Origami Philippines to create sakura-shaped lampshades. With the ambiance set right just for this season, diners are sure to feel like they’re right in Japan.
Mark the beautiful cherry blossom tradition, and head down to Tenya for a sakura celebration unlike any other! Visit Tenya in its branches at SM Megamall, Market! Market!, BGC Stopover, Paseo de Magallanes, SM Mall of Asia, Aseana City, Festival Mall and SM Southmall.
