| - POSITIVE FEEDBACK:
- FOOD: It is actually good. Not the best I've had since the best Filipino cook I know is my mother, but yeah they are good enough. My fave picks would be their Bicol Express (spicy, coconut milk and shrimp paste based stew, garlicy, gingery and porky goodness) and their Kare Kare (peanut sauce based stew, sweet and balanced with salty fermented shrimp paste, with morsels of meat and pieces of veggies)
- LOCATION: It is so close to my house!
RANT:
- I do not understand this particular ideology and ethic of running a food joint and this is notorious among a lot of Filipino cafeteria style restaurants I know, except for COFFEE IN (which is definitely my favourite).
I really do not understand why they SKIMP on the portions of their food. In Tagalog, "Nagtitipid". I do not understand it at all. I always poke fun of the way they carefully count the amount of morsels of pork they put in your takeout container or how much rice they put. It's like they have Parkinson's Disease or something when they scoop the food into your container, shaking constantly, nervous that they might put too much. For the amount they charge too, they have the nerve to do this.
I was going to give this place at least 3 stars, but the whole deprived acting ways and desperate ways to cut food costs is just so embarrassing and really bad. And PORK does not even cost a lot compared to any other meats, so I do not understand where the desperate cost saving stinjyness is coming from.
//Rant over.
Not coming back.
Food taste good, but no. Not coming back,
