| - I've been to the California Goldilock(s) and all of them were pretty good, but this one was just BAD.
My boyfriend is white so this was his first experience with a Filipino restaurant, and you know how first his impressions count, right? Oh God, I pity him now. He ordered the bbq chicken, and although it came out nicely browned and glazed on the outside, the inside was COLD and BLOOD RED. The kitchen couldn't even spare a second to check if it was done? Hello, salmonella? It wasn't even all that busy! My mom ordered the chicken adobo rice, which was actually very tasy - except it was served lukewarm. I ordered the palabok which, to my taste, was way too watery! I could've eaten that thing with a spoon!
I would've given them 1 star, but their bakery redeemed themselves. We bought a dozen cheese rolls and they were surprisingly delicious! Nothing wrong with them at all! I would say that they are in close competition with the cheese rolls from Portos in LA.. and that's saying a lot!
