For only 80 pesos, I get to chug down a big mug of ice cold (I think below zero, even) beer! You probably wouldn't have guessed that a Korean chicken shop would be able to pull this off but thank heavens, Kyochon exists! Their chicken are alright although I do prefer the Honey-dipped ones as I've always been a fan of anything either sweet or sour. The wings aren't that big though and that's probably one of the reasons why I'm not impressed with their food menu.

It was a photo coverage job that brought me to the area and the need for art supplies that brought me Megamall and I took that opportunity to once again go around the mall. Done with errands, I looked for a place to eat, and upon spotting Kyo Chon, I headed straight inside. Having tried the spicy and original soy flavor of their famous wings and drumsticks, I decided to try the honey flavor this time around. To contrast, the waiter politely yet eagerly suggested that I pair it with their kimchi rice. Several minutes later, I was munching away and was glad I took his advice. The sweet and spicy pairing was a feast for my tastebuds. There was so much flavor going on that I didn't even order drinks anymore. Aside from the food, I also enjoyed the novelty of watching music videos of Korean pop groups and singers being projected on one of the walls.

My Honest Take on Bulgogi Brothers (3/5)…read more Just tried Bulgogi Brothers, the Korean restaurant under the Bistro Group. It was okay. Not bad, but not something I'd go out of my way to visit again. Here's what we ordered and what I thought: Appetizers (Banchan) They served the usual Korean side dishes when we sat down, but honestly, they weren't that tasty. I usually look forward to the sweet little fish--but they didn't have it. That was already a letdown for me. Bibimbap We got the classic bibimbap. It looked nice, but when I mixed it all up, it just felt dry. The rice didn't have that moist, comforting feel I like when eating bibimbap. Galbi Jjim (Korean Beef Stew) This was served bubbling hot in a nice little pot, which I liked. The flavor was okay, very saucy, but here's the problem: only 3 pieces of meat. One was mostly bone, one was mostly fat, and the last one had some actual meat. Not worth the price for me. Korean BBQ Beef (I think it was Beef Belly) This was probably the best thing we ordered. It was grilled, tender, and had good flavor. If I ever come back, this is the only thing I'd really want again. Japchae (Glass Noodles) Too much red pepper. That's all I can say. It overpowered everything else. Would I come back? Maybe if I had no other choice and needed something Korean. But if you're looking for authentic Korean flavors, there are way better places out there. One good thing though--service was great. The staff was really attentive and nice.

Funny thing. I ordered red wings and the waiter told me that its "100% hot". I thought how hot…read morecould a chicken wing get? Anyhow after much deliberation i opted to have the red hot wings to go as i must admit, that 100% thingy is making me curious plus if its indeed as chili as they say it is I wouldn't wanna be drooling in the resto bearing glances of i told you so. I had the original flavor to eat in. I find it a little too salty for my liking. but my salt tolerance is a bit low. I think that it would go well with rice than it did with the potato wedges i opted for. Now on to that red wings - in the safety of my home I took a bite on my first piece. It is savory and delicious. The smaller part of the wing is a bit dry and the meaty part is okay. (but you have to consider that it sat there for the last 4 hours) I like that the meat has its own flavor and not just the batter. I've enjoyed 3 pieces by now and little pearls of sweat are coming out of my forehead. By the time i finished my 5th piece i was frantically drinking milk and eating yoghurt. lesson learnt- when in KyoChon and the waiter says its hot, they aren't kidding I don't know about you, but i think i just found a scale for my "hotness" tolerance And it is 4 red wings out of 10 red wings.

I mean, who wouldn't be proud of Marikina's Fried, all sorts of puns intended and not. It's hilarious and captures Filipino wit and humor.

I would also taste Jonny's fried chicken in his daughter's home in London, and I would meet the man himself there too! By the way, their pancit is also yummy!

We reserved a table through Zomato the night before we dine, but when we came at the restaurant on…read morethe reservation day (Lunar New Year), our reservation wasn't recognized. Good thing there was a table available to accommodate us. Despite the little mix-up, we enjoyed their Hototay Soup, Shrimp Puff, Chicken Feet, Beancurd Roll, and Birthday Noodles. The restaurant gets full during lunchtime, and we had to request for water seven times before it was served. The waiting table crew looked confused and lost and didn't know which table to attend to. Requests, food, and drinks took more than 30 minutes to be served, but the dishes were served warm. I think they need to have a system where a certain service crew is assigned to a number of tables, so diners won't be confused whom to call and follow up on a request. Definitely good for groups, but we might consider other dining options if we were at Lucky Chinatown Mall.

This is not not not good! It's rice was low quality, the dishes we ordered with anticipation were slop, flavours were dull and boring, and we will never go back. We'd wanted to go to President's Restaurant where the dim sum used to be uncharacteristically excellent for the old Chinatown in Binondo, but the rain, the crowded streets, and mostly corrupt transportation services prevented us from making it. So we settled for this drek! Ah, don't bother if you know good Chinese food? So distasteful that I forget what we ordered! Pretends to be high-end in status but just bolabola! Give us a little hole-in-the-wall with line-ups over this pretentious farce. Don't go there if you want flavour, texture and value. Bleh...

Once the waitstaff understood that we were there to eat our hearts out, they kept the bottomless accouterments coming! At one point, we had 4 different waitstaff stopping by our table every five minutes to bring us more of something delicious. Everything was fresh and good quality. Know before you go: 1. Make sure you know what's included in your order and what's extra. The waitstaff is more than happy to help make sense of it all. 2. Come wearing stretchy pants! You will undoubtedly eat more than you intended! 3. Bring your own hand wipes. The paper towels provided just don't cut it! I mean, it's BBQ! Plan on getting messy. Between the healthy portions, attentive waitstaff, and the casual atmosphere that teeters on gritty, we had an amazing culinary experience! I would definitely come back to this restaurant.

This is the reason why meat tastes better and tastier. We are glad to have a host family while I'm visiting the Philippines who knows good food, like honest to goodness must places to eat. One day, we were brought to this place right in the heart of Manila. The place might be small but the dining experience was gigantic. We enjoyed an AYCE for Php 580 with unlimited choices of pork and beef. The choices were so many that we just opted to get all beef. So many also were the banchans. When the server brought them out and laid in our table, there was no space left uncovered with these tiny plates and bowls of side dishes. Aside from that, we also requested for the steamed egg and tofu soup. Best part of the meal? You don't do the grilling because the server cooks all the meat for you. Ha! That's nothing unheard of here in the US. Overall, excellent service not just by the server but the entire staff. Definitely worth more than the money you pay for. I will definitely come back on my next trip to the Philippines.
