I saw the giant ad at the corner of South Super Highway and Quirino. And my mouth was wide open due to the beautiful picture of the pizza.
Steak- according to Mr. Webster is a cut of meat, usually perpendicular to the muscle fibers. So i expect the pizza to have beef pieces.
I was so excited when i got the chance to order it, but when i opened the box… my golly gee.. this is what i saw….
pieces of ground beef… ARGH!!!!! Why oh why… they advertise steak.. so i expect steak,…. sana na lang they said angus beef burger.. then i would expect something like this.
Anyway, if not for expecting the steak.. it was actually good and filling. THe bround beef pieces are softer and more thender than the usual beef pieces they give.. but still i suggest that they change their advertisement,… IT IS NOT STEAK!!.
Anothe thing… what is a Shakeys meal without Chick and chips… really good fred chicken!!!! and the mojos.. o… the mojos.. i just wish they would slice it thinner:)
I love butter though I also hate it because of its high cholesterol content but the taste of butter just lifts up a lot of ordinary tasting dishes. Cant imagine what a red butter would taste like and to combine it with shrimp… LEMME have it I said to the waiter. Hehe.
The serving size looked daunting. But upon close inspection , the filling was not as thick as I want it to be. But I love the cheese sauce, the volcano effect was a nice concept. But the onion strips they used was breaded TOO THICK, you can hardly taste the onion. This is the beef version and the bbq can be a bit overwhelming. Next time ill try the fish burger or the chicken
Fried tofu… love this freebie, its crunchy on the outside soft inside, not oily and seasoned perfectly
huge size siomai with shrimp, pork and mushroom. Definitely the best in manila.
best wrapper IMO, the filling was also sensational, very fresh, plump and crunchy. Delicious!!
the apples added a nice soft and sweet crunch to the pastry. The combination of pork and apples are good.
the filling were shrimp, fish and mangoes. The mayo dip was also good as it was not too thick.
this was a bit oily.
compared to the ones I had in Gloria maris, this was really exceptional.
I love this even if there was no meat and seafood here.
done excellently, great filling, great dough.
I llike the fookien fried rice the best, it has an savory sauce with bits of meat, mushroom, and shrimps. Mixed it with the rice and add a bit of hot garlic sauce… simply divine…..
this was just okay
but when I tasted it. The sauce tasted like sunquick prang concentrate. The fish was good though, fried beautifully, but still tender, flaky and moist inside.
so sad also that they sliced the scallops so thin. The sauce on top was also not to my liking, but I think its an acquired taste.
they have the best tasting mango sago …. BEFORE… this version was not as good as what I remembered. May be a bad day for the dessert chef?:)
.
clumps of oyster meat, dip in a light batter then fried/ The oysters were plump and sweet with no traces of “fishy odor”.
The sauce is creamy and savory and is perfect for the crab. Eat it with the sotanghon is not enough.. you have to order rice here. And have the rice soak up the sauce while you pick the meat from the crab. The meat is cooked perfectly . sweet and so heavenly, I could eat this everyday,
Oh well, there were lot of cars parked outside, which made me want to give it a try.
Very very good. Cooked to order ensuring the freshness of the dish. My only rant here is the wrapper, it wasn’t soft and elastic…
Their servings were big. Perfectly cooked. The fish was tender and soft. And the sauce have the right sweetness and tanginess.
The pork belly used has more meat than fat which was a good thing, I hope they could maintain such cut of meat. The skin was as crispy as it can be, without drying the meat out.
this is a complete meal by itself. Complete with chicken strips, wantons, dumplings, beef brisket, noodles and soup which is served separately.
refreshing, huge glass, ask for extra crushed ice. because it can be very sweet.
grass jelly with almond. One of my favorite drinks
full of ingredients like prawns, sliced beef, sliced pork asado. This was good, a little oily but very good. The noodles were cooked just right
described as stuffed with Chinese sausage. It tasted more like radish cake than tofu, I was expecting it to be silky soft with sausage slices in between. But the sausage was minced and incorporated to the tofu.
this was pretty good, the spareribs were tender and the sauce was something new. The coffee aroma and flavor was indeed there. Made into a sweet and slightly salty sauce. It coats the spareribs lightly but perfectly.
the color was more evident than the taste. I would not order this again..
with roasted pork asado, century egg, soy chicken, Jelly fish, Roasted Goose- everything was good, the Pork asado was very tender and has the perfect meat and fat ratio. Very juicy. The Roasted Goose was also delicious.
lots of noodles with bits and pieces of meat and seafood plus the famous orange quail egg. This dish was seasoned perfectly and cooked just right. The noodles are aldente and doestn break apart easily. It wasnt dry.
this was my least favorite dish of the day. The breading made the fish dry. It would be better if they used a batter kind of breading.. like the one they use in fish and chips. It could have maintain the moisture of the fish.
both items were cooked excellently. THe brocolli maintained its color and crispness even when cooked. The scallops were easy to eat. Dip it in chinese bagoomg to enhance the taste.
this was just okay
abalone when not cooked properly tend to be tough. this was easy to eat and yummy.,
the soy ginger oil douse on the fish was just perfect for the fish THe flesh was soft and silky.
this was just lip smacking and finger licking good. grabe, i could eat this everyday.
i just topped it with the buchi:)
Who doesn’t love a good deal? Coming from the same group(Bistro Group) that brought us Fridays, Italianis, Fish and Co .
. They made the batter a bit thinner than their regular pancakes. Topped with sliced mangoes, which iwas…unfortunately not really sweet. It was tangy… good thing there was vanilla ice cream to off set the tanginess. You can request for caramel sauce, which I did. And it was very good.
fish flossed fried till golden brown. Topped with julienne mango slices then doused with a thai inspired salad dressing that is both sweet and tangy.
Serving also rice meals where in you can taste different dishes in one plate. Everything on the plate was good, from the pad thai, to the calamari and of course their bagooong rice
The famous thai sour/spicy soup. Perfect for the cold rainy days. It loosen up the nasal passages with one sip:)
for me they still serve of the best version of chicken pandan in metro manila. The marinade penetrates all the fibers of the chicken meat resulting in a sweet with hints of saltiness. The chicken is always cooked perfectly, still moist insde.
The pork was siliced just right, not too thin and not too thick, floured then deep fried to produce a crispy product yet it was tender and moist inside. The sauce was just enough and it didn’t flood the plate. The sweet and sour balance was also just right.
The tofu were quickly fried and still silky inside. The seafood were cooked perfectly. The prawns were still springy and crunchy. The fish was flaky and soft, the squid was perfect and not a chore to eat.
noodles were cooked just right lots or meat and seafood,. Seasoned perfectly
anyone who can tell me how can a chinese restaurant produce beef this soft and tender?. This was super good…
