| - Funny thing is that my lady and I are on a whole healthy clean eating phase for the month of May, but I just couldn't picture me eating the sweet potato, chicken breast, asparagus and quinoa plate we prepared for lunch today. Shhh, don't tell her.
Thus, Yelp to the rescue! I popped in nearby eateries and got a hit for Manna, a Korean joint that has 4+ stars with 15 reviews. Further investigation was warranted...little did I know that the place was a food court, right under my nose not more than two blocks away.
The first place I bumped into was Kaba Curry, a place ran by a buddy of my be and I have never been able to try it since I am rather find of my own home made curry. Interestingly enough, there were four other joints in here including Manna, Wing King, Weeziana and Counter Cuisine, all of which I need to take a train check on since they all have menus that sound amazing. Yet today, is Kaba Curry day!
I asked my boy what was good, he replied, "go with the Kaba Loco." So I did just that. The dish includes a hinge made hamburger patty topped with an over easy egg on for scoops of white rice drowned with Japanese curry and a rich of red pickled ginger. The buggah broke da mout but could be a little bigger imo! I smashed on it so quick that I regret not taking my time. So I ended up grabbing a spam musubi at Manna.
Although the initial trip was to try out Manna for the first time, not knowing that my co workers and I would run into a hidden hole in the wall food court just outside CSN. A blessing in disguise indeed.
I noticed lots of people asking for Kaba's cheese cake as well, unfortunately they were out, but it looks like it's all the rave. I will most certainly be back to try the other menu items as well. Best believe.
In addition, you can expect me to be back to try out the other nearby eateries as well. I hear that they throw little gaming functions and other events here as well, so eager to see how that plays out as well. Thus is my new favorite spot within the vicinity of work HQ.
