In Greenhills, Hashi Pan-Asian serves food that's almost like a honeymoon of flavors
There are chapters in your family's love story that deserve more than buffet lines and dim lighting.
We were going to celebrate my grandparents' platinum wedding anniversary (yes, 72 years like a long-running K-drama plot) and my parents' sapphire one so we wanted a place that felt familiar with the kind of quiet charm that befits the steadiness of my loved ones' relationships.
Then I found out about Hashi Pan-Asian Restaurant on the 3rd floor of Greenhills Mall. A quick look at the menu shows majority of the dishes are Japanese-inspired, Hashi also offers Vietnamese, Thai, and Chinese selections.
Don't get fooled by the wood and marble interiors that feel like an upscale dining area of a posh hotel. Each dish is quite affordable and offers bang for the buck. Hashi's aesthetic quietly beckons to families who prefer intimate celebrations to Gen Z professionals who bask in the quiet elegance that modern restaurants offer.
Owner Frederick 'Erick' Tuazon, a visionary who splits his time between Sweden and the Philippines, launched the flagship restaurant in Venice Grand Canal Mall in 2017. Its expansion into Greenhills, a dynamic food district, was a strategic move. 'We wanted each location to carry a thematic identity, ambiance and menu should work together. Greenhills gave us that opportunity,' Erick says.
A Culinary Vow Renewal
From the first plate served, our celebration being lunch and became a full-on culinary reception.
Moving forward intentionally
Erick isn't here for the flash. 'One to two branches per year,' he said of his expansion plans as 'I care about consistency.'
Just like any lasting marriage, he knows that longevity isn't about speed, it's about showing up with consistency, and this is how he treats his business. 'I don't want 30 or 40 locations where guests can't expect the same experience. I want our guests to return and find the exact same quality, flavor, and service they fell in love with,' he added.
So, whether you're celebrating decades of marriage or simply craving something soulful, drive to Greenhills and let Hashi Pan-Asian Restaurant remind you what coming home tastes like. — LA, GMA Integrated News
