Tokyo Tokyo is a Japanese fast food restaurant chain in the Philippines. Tokyo Tokyo is known for serving Japanese dishes with free rice refill, a promotion[1] called eat-all-you-kanin (Eat all the rice you can) which has been on-going since it started in 1997. Tokyo Tokyo currently operates 53 stores in the Philippines,[2] with much of the chain's expansion being attributed to franchising. Generally Tokyo Tokyo restaurants are located within major shopping centers and malls in the country notably malls which are owned and operated by SM Prime Holdings, Robinson's and the Ayala Corporation.

History

The first Tokyo Tokyo restaurant opened on April 22, 1985 at the Quad car park [3] in Makati city. They first served Japanese dishes such as tempura, tonkatsu, yakisoba, sushi and sashimi. At the time they opened their first Japanese restaurants in 1985, other Japanese restaurants were more traditional; the 'mainstreaming' of the market has contributed to the restaurant chain's growth.
