MANILA, Philippines - Melo’s Restaurant is the pioneer when it comes to serving certified Angus beef. Today, Melo’s has added authentic Wagyu (also known as Kobe beef) to its menu. The beef is presented to customers in a steak cart so they can choose the cut and thickness of the meat before it is grilled with a secret marinade over volcanic rocks. Melo’s is the only restaurant where you can choose from a variety of Wagyu cuts — rib-eye (Grade 4), tenderloin (Grade 8), striploin (Grade 8), rib-eye (8-oz., Grade 8), Cowboy rib-eye with bone (24-oz., Grade 6), Porterhouse (22 to 24-oz., Grade 6), and T-bone (22 to 24-oz., Grade 5). Other dishes are the Chilean sea bass, grilled lamb chops, and Waldorf salad made with a mix of lettuce, apple slices, and walnuts.
