| - I've decided to try this place, finally, after recommendation from a fellow yelper to eat the Halo-Halo. I went on a Wednesday evening, and was a bit disappointed that they didn't have my favorite dish, the binagoongan. Gosh how hard it is to find that dish!
However, I thought the price of the menu items were quite fair. We got the Lechon Kawaii, which was pretty crispy and yummy, w/ a big bowl of rice to accompany it. We also ordered the mixed plate, which we chose the following four items (there is a list of items one may chose):
-Pork Adobo: It was tasty, like any other places, just less sauce...I like my sauce too.
-Pancit Mix: I should have stick with my favorite Pancit...Pancit Palabok
-Dinuguan: Pretty good. Don't let the blackish/purplish color scared you...pretty delicious
-Thelma Special: This dish includes chunks of lechon mixed with diced tomatoes and onions. Well, I learned quickly that I liked my lechon crisp and as is versus all the frills.
Then I was ready for my current favorite dessert..Halo Halo. There was barely any ube icecream, and there was no rice crisp! The rice crisp adds texture and I totally missed it. I usually finish the whole halo-halo, no matter how full I am, but I only ate half and dumped the rest. I was very very very disappointed. :(
The service was wonderful. Our cashier/server was super friendly. I probably will go back to try other items, but won't be ordering my halo-halo there (save myself from disappointment).
