This used to be my "go-to" place for Filipino food in Vegas but no more. I went Thursday last week, ordered my 2 items + rice to go, and looked forward to eating in the peace and quiet of my hotel room. When I opened the container, the 2 scoops of rice had the consistency of lumpy mashed potatoes! REALLY. Whoever cooked the rice used 2x the amount of water and w-a-y overcooked the rice so that there aren't even any recognizable grains. C'mon, we're Pinoys! Rice is sacred and should be the one thing we can cook consistently. After all, how do we enjoy the soup or the sarsa in the dishes (even if it is just the oil from the lechon)? I was so disappointed. How do you eat pochero (which was actually quite tasty) without rice? I kept hearing my Lola's voice "Hey, huwag mag pakpak!" (LOL) At least I had the upo dish as a veggie as balance but really - not the same.
Oh, and this is not the first time I've had this rice problem. But in the past, it was only slightly mushy. This time it was BAD. No way to redeem it.
So, I'm gonna have to say 'ta-ta' to PP and try one of the other LV Filipino establishments. It was a good 5-year run.
