| - For the times my stomach craves for the goood ol' country Filipino food my tongue have grown accustomed to besides the other international cookings my mother, my father and/or our housekeeper cooks for me and my siblings way back then; For the times I would just not get busy in the kitchen making favorite Filipino cuisine, this is my dining home when in Vegas. Why? can not think of anything else nor compare it with other places but it just fills and completes my Filipino food palate's needs!
Pluses:
This is a family-friendly, laid-back, fast-food type restaurant. Want to see the interior? see the restaurant's own video on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mZ9ahwcj5mw&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL
The atmosphere is cordial and conducive to just eating. Sometimes it's filled with diners on peak dining hours and sometimes I dine in with only 2 or three tables occupied. I like that, too, so I can concentrate on my meal and savor it without rushing out (so others can seat and eat on the table I just vacated, so unlike other restaurants).
There's televisions to watch Filipino programmed shows or sometimes sports is on the monitor. If not, just eat!
It's not hot or cold inside. Guess, it has an A/C and fans swirl around, above from ceiling. Well, I feel comfy while dining, not un-climated.
I have dined in the restaurant when "Pork Binagoongan" was on the buffet line (see photos). Other favorites of mine like "Laing", "Pinakbet", "Sinigang", "Kare-kare", "Bicol Express", "Ginataan" are waiting to be had. Well, I stop the enumeration right there because I have many favorites. It could get on and on, including soups and desserts...that said, it would take up so much space here on this page. Any favorites you can think of? Many Filipino food favorites are presented for you to have, to taste. A variety each day. Not the same served on the buffet line everyday. Isn't that exciting? Each time you visit, it ain't the same foods for the day.
Finely sliced, scrumptious, well-seasoned and deliciously spiced up meals.
They serve breakfast food. Though my regular choices were simple, my breakfast meal is always delightful of Garlic Fried Rice, a double nice sunny-side up eggs and delectable "Longanisa" (sweet and spicy sausage).
An array of finger food delicacies and packaged candies or mini-desserts for your sweet fixing need.
For just less than $10, a generous choice of 2 entrees in a combination with a heaping, steaming white rice and a small side of soup is a good deal. There are times I get a really good appetite, an extra serving of rice is given free of charge.
The buffet line staff are friendly, helpful, and cordial. And they serve with an attentive smile. Although the staff is Filipino speaking, English as you all know by now is spoken by most Filipinos.
Food is made fresh daily, hot, and straight from the kitchen.
A "to-go" styrofoam box and plastic bag is given when taking home the rest of the meal is an option.
There's a bathroom to wash my hands or peruse it for other purpose, you know what I mean.
Parking space is abundant outside the restaurant. Choose your space.
Un-Plus, but See the Good Side Of It:
No wait staff if you are looking for someone to attend to you while you eat. It is a fast food restaurant. What did you expect? A tip is not even expected, unless you were really served by one of the staff.
Just don't expect the same Filipino foods made for each day. The buffet line offers you delectable choices that varies each day.
Later in the course of the day, the buffet trays are replenished; nevertheless, it's made fresh each time.
Back to Plus: The tables are attended to after the diner(s) leave the table by a cordial cleaning attendant resulting in a nice clean table if the diners before you do not clean up after themselves, you know how some people are.
Overall, I enjoy my meals and "masarap talaga" (that means, really tastes good!) Mmmmm! Mmmm! Mmm!
