This Massive Tempura Proves Bigger Is Sometimes Better

(SPOT.ph) Some would argue that size doesn't matter—with food, though, that's rarely ever the case. Bigger, more often than not, is always better. And if it applies to cocktails and sausages, it can pretty much apply to everything else, including tempura. If you've yet to see a tempura that's as big as a human palm, Tokyo Tempura just released its biggest tempura to date, with folks online saying it gets as big as nine inches.

Check out this nine-inch long tempura from Tokyo Tempura:

 When was the last time you had Tokyo Tempura? Would you say it was around 11 years ago? Well, it would make sense since that was when the tempura cart business first opened in the Philippines. As it marks its 11th year in the business, it released the Giant Tempura, also called Kaiju Tempura, which translates to a "strange beast" or "giant monster."

Tokyo Tempura's Giant Tempura is almost double the size of its regular tempura. In retrospect, it explains why it feels like you're paying double too. These gigantic tempuras are priced at P179/two pieces, P249/three pieces, and P399/five pieces. We wouldn't say it's affordable, but at least, the size of the shrimp used for the tempura justifies the price.

There is a small catch though. Tokyo Tempura's Giant Tempura will only be available until October 31, which gives you only a few more days to order. It's only offered at these 12 branches: Tokyo Tempura Riverbanks, Robinsons Manila, SM San Lazaro, SM Grand Central, SM Manila, SM Megamall, Market! Market!, Ayala Cloverleaf, Ayala Malls Feliz, Gateway Mall, SM Lipa, and SM Sucat.
