Pepper Steak (Greenhills)

 

Looking at their pictures, the food looks so masarap, then you order it, when it arrives you must compare the semi-charred bits of beef sa picture, tapos habang kinakain na over cook na yung beef.

 

Presyong mahal para sa carbonized beef lamang, di sulit, di bale nalang.

Max Fried Chicken (any branch)

 

Their quarter spring chicken ay parang a quarter of a pigeon sa liit. Yung side dishes nila ay lasang MSG na lamang, even their soup parang tubig na may asin, paminta, and food coloring.

Okay ang food dito, problema lang talaga is no parking.

Meroong bang alternate parking for dito?

Gusto ko yung pagkain sa Omikase, busog na, malasa pa.

Dami pa dyan. Sa likod ng Metrowalk, sa may Ortigas Home Depot, puro decada 80s. Tapos sa Toyz Cafe sa taas ng Lancaster Hotel, kadalasan 80s din yung tugtug.

Hey foodies... If I was going out on a dinner date in the area, what would be a good place? Not just food-wise, but ambiance/steadiness/intimate-wise???

 

I'm from QC, but the embarrassing thing is know Foodie places in Ortigas or Makati better than in QC... piyesa ng kotse alam ko kung saan meron, bookbinding alam ko san, isaw alam ko saan, pero sa mga QC restos olats ako.

 

Katre's been sounding good to me. Aresi of course. Taste of LA and Finio sound like contenders. I don't like prick places, doesn't need to be expensive, but as steady and ambient as Greens probably... Although greens is out because I like my food murdered. :upside:

Katre maganda yung ambiance, medyo intimate, at masarap ang pagkain. Taste of LA, masarap at intimate kaya lang yung ambiance, di pang romansa. Aresi mas pang pamilya kaysa romansa.

May okay na Koreanong restaurant dito, duon sa may kalye na tapat ng Valle Verde Country Club.

I tried a restaurant "Red Crab" last week with my customers.

 

You can enjoy a huge crab with a various cooking style.

 

Try it, and you will be a repeater. :thumbsupsmiley: :thumbsupsmiley: :thumbsupsmiley:

Kung repeater ka, malapit na dedbol din, taas ng cholesterol nyan, kaya lang, tama ka, sarap talaga.

DQ is masarap lalo na pagnagpapataba ka.

They only have 3 lamb items in the menu and the Lamb with Couscous is the best of the three (IMO)

Tama ka duon sa Lamb with Couscous, kaya lang wag nyo nang subukan yung seafood pasta nila, sobrang nakakataba, kahit masarap.

 

not making much money???? kinda strange if you consider that during those times, we have to wait 15 minutes just to get a table, what with the healthy amount of customers lining up to dine there.

 

Oh well..... lets hope they'd fare better in their new location. I really enjoyed my previous meal there. And I'm looking forward to another one pretty soon.

Although we could try OMAKASE first as our next Food Trip EB Master

Omakase masarap din dyan, Aresi? Nabuhay nanaman ba sila? Dati nagwork duon friend ko, nakakakilabot dahil yung oysters nila ay galing sa jar tapos binabalik lang sa shell.

@Food trip guys,

 

You could also try Feng Wei Wee @ the corner of Banawe and Samat beside Pizza hut. It's a Taiwanese cuisine. Mas sosy sa Zhang and mas mahal.

 

Budget conscious, definitely walang tatalo sa Zhang's :thumbsupsmiley:

 

Sinubukan ko dito sa Feng Wei Wee kanina, okay lang yung food, kaya lang pakiramdam kong tumataas ang uric acid ko sa katawan dahil sa dami ng lamang loob na sa menu nila. Syempre, lamon kami ng mga kumadre ko.

Ang problema lang sa Katre ngayon ay yung wine selection nila ay di na masyadong maganda.

Salamas paula, so malapit ito sa Muy Hong?

Nemoto along buendia near the LRT station, it's run by a very hospitable Japanese lady

Nemoto ay buhay pa ba? Huling beses ako kumain duon ay 1993 pa.

Yun nga lang, best is medyo subjective, kasi iba ibang panglasa naman tayo diba?

my apologies if my previous posts did not state whether it was before or after Maria Clara St. (coming from quezon ave.)... next time I'll try to post clearer directions.

 

Last night our second "Food Trip" EB was attended by Me, Sir HOPIA, SWEET INTROVERT, PAULA and sir JOPOC. (The Gentle_Maniac was not able to make it.) Our dinner meet was at a thai resto called MUANG THAI.

Sorry din po na di ako nakadating. Tinapos ko yung gabing yun sa Kizmet nalang. :thumbsupsmiley:

 

i just tried causeway banawe awhile ago. i am not disappointed at all. it was worth it.!!!!!!! i ate their wanton noodle and siomai!!!!

Causeway Banawe is the best sa lahat ng branches nila.

Yung chicken na Bacon Mozza Melt yung nasubukan ko. Not in the veggie stuff

 

I just ordered the Silly Burger the other day. Damn! Parang mas maanghang na siya ngayon, pero masarap pa din :thumbsupsmiley:

 

I'll try the 3 Cheese and the Margherita burgers next time

 

Yung 3 Cheese is better than the Margherita, dalawa sila based on pizza recipes.

Asmodeus, hinahanap ko yung Meung Thai last night, di ko naman makita tapos dead batt on my cell. Diba you said it was on Banawe before Ma. Clara heading to Retiro?

no we're not...... we are actually open to the idea of trying out both the low ends and high end eateries. For me, Taste is more important.

 

Okay yan chief. So may list na ba ng kainan dito sa Banawe na planong ifield trip?

saucy ????? as in food with lots of sauces? or saucy as in sosyal ????

 

Baka kasi OSS (Oh So Social) yung grupo mo. Ako ay pangkaraniwang tao lamang.

Well kung saucy kayo, baka di nyo masyado magugustuhan dito sa Zhang.

baka ZHANG

Yun na nga yun, salamas mobsglax.

 

sir EREHWON..... I think you got your anwer here.

 

What are its specialties??????

Home cooked style Chinese cuisine, masarap at mura, yun lang nga, madaming oldies kumakain dito.

Ganito lang naman yun eh, pagmaykaya, pumunta sa New York Pizza or Brooklyn Pizza or Yellow Cab, kaya ma pabusugin yung pamilya mo sa isang pizza na ang halaga ay 600 pesos, masarap pa diba?

 

Kaya lang kung mahirap ka, kaya mo din ibusog yung pamilya sa 3M sa halaga ng 120 pesos. That is 1/5 so ibig sabihin, masmadali sa pitaka.

 

Best kasi is so subjective.

Max Fried Chicken along Ayala Ave. Umorder kami ng friend ko ng tig 1/2 Fried Chicken, halos isang oras bago madala yung order, sobrang liit pa ng manok. Yung nagcomplain kami, sabi ng manager, yung daw yung regular chicken nila. Chicken ba o pigeon ito? Tapos when we asked for the bill, putsa, 25 minutes bago ma bigay, 4 tables lang ang may nakaupo nung panahon na iyon.

 

Nakakairita talaga.
