Yakitori Q: Japanese food need not be expensive

As I visited the recent Phil SME at the PICC Forum, my attention was caught by a kiosk that sells yakitori, the Yakitori Q

Yakitori grilled chicken, is commonly a Japanese type ofskewered chicken. The term "Yakitori" can also refer to skewered food in general.

The Japanese food was not expensive and with just P29.00, I could have a meal complete with rice.

The different sauces surely suits the different taste buds of my children.

Here's some information that I have gathered with regards to this new business venture.

First Asian Food Project Inc. (FAFPI) was started in April 2008 by Jorge Wieneke III with a dream of bringing the traditionally expensive Japanese Cuisine to the common Filipino. He discovered that Japanese food need not to be expensive, through the help of the Okuya family. FAFPI started with a branch in Makati and in Quezon City, supported by a commissary. Today, it has 6 branches, 3 of which are franchise operated.

Jorge heads team of winners, partnering up with successful individuals in their own right. Together, they compose the management team of FAFPI, successfully expanding the business to where it is now.
