| - Glad to have more Filipino presence at Pacific Mall! Pinoy Waffles offers a variety of fillings - from blueberry, cream cheese, caramel, and custard to hot dog, chocolate, and lemon, etc. Located near the entrance/bridge to the upstairs food court, you can buy the waffles at $2 each or 3/$5.00. They also have halo-halo (a Filipino shaved ice dessert) for $5.00.
My fam and I got three of them: ham & cheese, custard, and ube (pronounced ooh-beh, purple yam). All of them were really hot once we bit into them so take caution before taking your first (big) bite! The custard one was the sweetest of the three, the ham & cheese the most savoury, and the ube a good mix of sweet & savoury but mostly sweet. The waffles are a decent size - thicker and bigger than your standard hot dog. The waffle exterior is also a bit harder than you might expect - closer to a crispy waffle than a soft one.
There will be a wait time before getting them since it's a small take-out space, one kind lady operating everything, & only a couple of waffle making machines. It's a nice change from all the other yummy things PMall offers so I recommend trying it out before crossing it off as a choice. The taste is sort of what you expect from what it sounds like - waffle sticks with filling. Overall, it's a good snack!
