Garlic Pepper Beef and Ultimate Burger Steak


  

It dawned on me that Jolibee never ceases to amaze me with their food offering. With the newest addition on their menu, Garlic Pepper Beef is quite exemplary. The savory and smokey flavor can heighten ones senses -- it does for me because it was so delish! Heehee. The downside is there can be a lot of "litid" that makes it tough to eat. But over all I enjoyed the food because of its awesome flavor. (And affordability) *winks*


Another of their newest addition, the Ultimate Burger Steak, well not so new at all, I think it has been on their menu since last year but I get to try it just recently. It is like the usual burger steak but bigger because it uses a 1/3 pound patty over a bed of French fries drowned with mushroom gravy. The verdict: It was actually good. I’m hands down when it comes to their burger patties. Jolibee can provide one of the juiciest patties. The fries can get a little soggy due to the gravy but the aroma of the food made me forget about the fries but instead it made me want to dig in and indulge more.

Try it!

Foodtrip: Kipp's Chicken


Back then SM Southmall foodcourt was our usual to go place, other than Jolibee and Mcdonalds, Kipp's Chicken was ( and will always be) my favorite amongst fried chicken joints. I was so happy when I learned that they have a branch at SM North foodcourt. I knew I just have to taste their chicken once again.



And off I went to SM North one lazy Saturday morning. I ordered 2pcs chicken with a side salad. And boy! I was blown! "I just had a foodgasm!" This is exactly how I remember Kipps Chicken. Crispy yet tender, juicy and oozing with flavors in and out accompanied with spanish rice which is savory as well (one rice is not enough heehee). The gravy is nothing compared to others that I've tried. Gravy pa lang ulam na Lols. This is one of the reason why I love Kipp's. It felt like it was cooked and served with much gusto. You should try it! After more than a decade, Kipps Chicken still retains it's quality and flavor that I've learned to love -- comes back the nostalgia of elementary days. It never diasppont not a single bit.

Sweet Treat: Pudding Republiq


I am a fan of group buying sites such as Metrodeal, Ensogo, Groupon to name a few. So it's not new for me to check on them once in a while for something new that offers a great deal. As I was browsing the net, my eyes chance upon Pudding Republiq and a light flickered my thoughts. I know this place, it recently opened at Robinsons Manila and my eyes cannot miss this because of the cute black and pink motif of the stall plus the yummy looking treats that will say hello when you pass by. Heehee...

This is my chance, I bought one voucher from Metrodeal that cost Php 180 for one dozen of mini bread  pudding. Bread Pudding is one of the most popular European dessert it is deconstructed bread mixed in with fine ingredients like milk, eggs, sugar and syrup topped with different variations for the foodies to enjoy.




I may not be a fan of sweet treats but I can say that this puddings were so  delicious looking and delicious tasting as well.  There are a lot of flavors to choose from but I personally like the Yema Pastillas . The Yema Pastillas might be too sweet but it didn't bother me at all because I was really enjoying it.  Heehee!

Till next time!

Paluto: Sizzling Nga Po


I rarely cook at home and that is if I'm in super hyperactive mode. LOL. It's like one morning I would wake up really early and cook. Complete with soup for breakfast. It's like all the gods came down on me. That feeling. AND IT'S RARE. Hehe. Eating out is more convenient for me since I live apart from my parents with only my brother in tow. Whenever I'm craving for some lutong-bahay there is this small in a hole resto along Maceda, Paluto: Sizzling Nga Po which is open 24/7. They serve a fusion of filipino-chinese cuisine at a very affordable price.

I usually order their Crispy sisig with egg because I believe this is the best I tried so far, but after I have undergone operation last year as much as possible I shy away from all fatty food. If I can help it. Lols. But that day, I was wearing my goody goody shoes so I did not order anything pork. Instead I opted for Sweet and Sour Fish Fillet. Oh yeah! You heard it right! FISH!


I love their Sweet and Sour Fish Fillet, not too sweet and not too sour their is balance and its really important. With that being said, I finished all of it hehe. 



The thing is everything here at Paluto is delicious, affordable and the serving is quite huge. But if you're in a hurry this place is not really for you, if you're lucky your food will be served in 30 minutes. The place is always packed especially at night and they also have a lot of food deliveries I MEAN A LOT! Hence the slow service. Oh well! But the food is worth the wait and rest assured that your food is piping hot since they cook upon ordering.

The thing that I don't like is the area can get a bit messy specially the floors. I also think that the waiters should be more presentable. It's irritating to me that they walk like they're sliding there feet on the floor. I don't know if anyone else notice it. They should also put a wall between the area for the diners and the area where they wash the dishes it's not really good to look at.

If ever you drop by at Paluto their Sisig is a must try! As well as their Pancit Bihon! Oh try everything! Lol.

Pat and Sam's Samala Rice Cake


Samala Rice Cake is one of the famous pasalubong that hails from Cavite. It is made up of glutinous rice and coconut milk. I have a patient from Cavite who would always bring us a box of Pat and Sam's famous kakanin whenever he visits the clinic. 




The said kakanin was really good and heavy and not too sweet. I heard that Pat and Sam have the Pinipig and Malagkit version. I would love to try other varieties as well as their sapin -sapin. Hope to visit Cavite soon.

Try it!

Ciao!

Foodtrip: Moshi Manju


I was on the mall one day when I passed by a stall crowded with people. I was curious, as I get nearer I get a waft of a very delicious aroma of freshly baked goodies. I was still wondering what it is and I promised myself that I will have whatever it is when I get back.

And so the day had finally arrived, I finally meet Moshi Manju. Sounds Korean! ehe! Well it actually is! Moshi Manju is a korean cake filled with delicious filling that is freshly made everyday. They have two flavors the choco fudge and pastillas de leche. 


 

I ordered the Big Box (24 pcs) for Php 92. I had it assorted so I get to taste the best of both worlds. Hehe.



I liked the choco filling better because it is not that sweet. While the pastillas is too sweet for my liking. But both were very yummy and enjoyable to eat. My brother loves it too much that he can't stop saying "Ang sarap! Ang sarap talaga!" Lol.

Go get some for yourself it's really good.

Ciao!
