Michelin-Starred Kam’s Roast Arrives in Manila – What to Expect

Seems  Michelin-starred restaurants opening in Manila are all  the rage these days.

Was it just  last December that Tsuta, the first Michelin-starred Japanese Ramen Shop  opened in BGC? 
Thanks to Foodee Global Concepts, Kam’s Roast   a Michelin-starred restaurant in Hong Kong opened yesterday May 15 in  SM Megamall Fashion Hall Level 3 . Yay!   Lucky us! No need to fly to HK when the craving for Kam’s Roast hits.

A world renowned brand, Kam’s Roast boasts a culinary heritage that spans 3 quarters of a century. Third gen Mr. Hardy Kam from the family that started Yung Kee Restaurant, founded  Kam’s Roast together with  Mr. Robert Chua a notable TV and Movie producer in HK.

Last May 11, I was fortunate to receive an  invitation to experience Kam’s Roast first hand in an intimate setting with select foodies.

We tried the following :

BRAISED NOODLES WITH GINGER AND SCALLION

Summary 

Kam’s Roast joins a roster of  world-renowned restaurants introduced to the country by FOODEE GLOBAL CONCEPTS , the outfit responsible in bringing Tim Ho Wan, Tsuta Japanese Soba Noodles, POUND by  Todd English, HOOK by Todd English, Todd English Food Hall, FOO’D by David Oldani, MESA, Llaollao, Sunnies Cafe  and Bench Cafe.

Per Mr. Eric Dee COO of  FOODEE GLOBAL CONCEPTS, 

“Our goal quite literally is to give Filipinos a taste of the most delectable flavors around the world that can be found  around the world. We’re proud  to add  KAM’S ROAST to our mix of dining concepts and look forward to giving  Filipinos more options that will delight their discerning palates without needing to hop on a plane.”

Indeed the Philippines is lucky to have another Michelin-starred restaurant in its midst. Saves us a lot on plane fares and airbnb bills.

Overall a  delicious experience for this  Kam’s Roast first timer. Although the family  had been to  HK several times , we have yet to try the original Kam’s Roast  Goose in Wan Chai.

Note that per Mr. Eric Dee,   goose is not part of the menu as yet

Indeed  the long wait is over.  Welcome to Manila Kam’s Roast! I can not wait to eat your  succulent and delectable soya chicken, roast duck , suckling pig and Toro Charsiu again

Definitely returning with the piggery in tow.

Kam’s Roast is located at the 3rd Level of  SM Mega Fashion Hall in Ortigas.
