Lugawan sa Tejeros Lugaw with Lechon Kawali + Egg
Joey R.

First of all, it was a bit of an adventure for me to get to this place! But, the travel was worth it and, thankfully, the lugaw was very good! The kiosk is definitely not for the neat freak! It is a carinderia and the tables spill over to the street. It is quite cramped but, when I ate here, the place was packed! This was around 430PM. I guess I joined the merienda crowd. Once you've found a seat, order this: L4 (Lugaw + Lechon Kawali + Egg) and the Tokwa't Baboy. Wash it all down with a Mountain Dew. It was really good! Just the right consistency for the lugaw with the crunch of the pork plus garlic. Oh, the Tokwa't Baboy if fried tofu with the crispy lechon kawali. Loved it! Winner combo! If I were you, go here with friends and when it is very late in the evening. Also, if you don't want to eat and sit on the sidewalk, you can have you order for take out! :)

Lugawan Sa Tejeros, Don Chino Roces Avenue corner Malolos Street

If there's a meal that can transcend age brackets, regional tastes, and all social demographics in the Philippines, it's the humble lugaw or congee. Lugaw (also called goto if you order it with beef or pork entrails) is available on the streets, in cafeterias, heck, even in expensive Filipino restaurants. Indeed, a city or town is not complete, nor will it thrive, without a suking lugawan or gotohan. For me, my go-to (pun intended) place when I crave for congee is Lugawan sa Tejeros on the far end of Don Chino Roces Avenue (formerly Pasong Tamo) that's close to the border of Makati and Manila. Here, they serve white lugaw which I find cleaner and more appetizing than the typical yellow variant. I always order goto or lugaw with innards. Instead of fatty beef tripe and intestines, they use pork tito (pig's intestines). Occasionally, I would also add boiled egg. But the best lugaw or goto accompaniment is the tokwa't baboy. At Lugawan sa Tejeros, their tokwa't baboy is made up of crispy fried tofu squares and lechon kawali - not boiled pig's ears. A bowl of goto and a plate of tokwa't baboy cost less than PHP 100.00. You most likely have your own suking lugawan or gotohan. But if you find yourself in Makati, Lugawan sa Tejeros is a must try. To get to the place, you can take the jeepney plying along Don Chino Roces going to JP Rizal Avenue. Most cab drivers know where it's located. Old-time Makati residents know about it. If you don't dig eating on a bench right on the sidewalk, you can have your orders for carry-out like I always do because I'm too big for the bench at the lugawan.

Wingstop - Chicken Wings

Wingstop

We ended up at Wingstop because we just wanted a place to sit, talk and munch without the rituals…read moreof a full meal. While ordering our 11-pc Batter-Fried Wings, the cashier told us that we had 3 FREE WINGS! Turns out they had a promo where you get free wings. I didn't even know about this promo! So, the promo is, you get FREE WINGS, based on your order: 5 wings - 1 wing free 7 wings - 2 wings free 11 wings - 3 wings free The free wings must be the same type (classic or batter-fried), and can only be one flavor. If you complete all the flavors on the card, you get a P1,000 GC! Promo period is from May 23 - August 31, 2016. Too bad they don't deliver. They do have order pick-up, so next time I can just drive over and pick up my wings, or hang out there first, read a book. Gotta take advantage of the free parking at Circuit Makati while you can! The 11-pc Batter-Fried Wings is P395, but because of the promo, we were actually getting 14 pcs! That's P28/pc. It's a mix of the drumette, and the wingette + tip. We got the Lemon Pepper, Louisiana Rub, Honey Garlic and Teriyaki this time. Then after that, I also had some Wingstop again and tried the Garlic Parmesan and Mild Buffalo. To me, the dry rubs (Lemon Pepper, Louisiana Rub and Garlic Parmesan) are the best flavors I have tried from Wingstop, Garlic Parmesan being the one I liked best, and will probably be the ones I will keep on ordering. I didn't really like the Teriyaki - the molasses and some kind of lime flavor was too strong. I expected the Teriyaki to taste like sweet ginger soy syrup, so the molasses flavor threw me off. As for the Honey Garlic, I expected it to taste like honey and fried garlic, and was disappointed by the addition of the soy sauce component. It was milder, but still similar to the Teriyaki. The Mild Buffalo was just a mild hot sauce coated chicken, no ranch or blue cheese dressing included (must be bought separately). I was expecting a buttery, garlicky, sweet and hot sauced chicken wing. Flavor-wise, I think I like the flavor profile of Frankie's Wings much better. This is not to say that Wingstop's chicken is not good. The chicken wings were crispy and juicy. Unfortunately, I just did not like the sauces I tried, and it's a personal preference. Who knows, you might turn out to like them! Fortunately for me, there are more flavors for me to try. The promo is a big incentive for me to go back and try the other flavors. The restaurant is clean, everything is still new. Air-conditioning is cold, always a plus. They have a sink where customers can wash their hands, but they also provide plastic gloves. The sink was fun, you push the front of the sink with your knee to turn on the faucet.

My friends already know the drill: We go to the nearest Kenny Rogers Roasters (which in our case is…read morethe one near the Vito Cruz LRT Station) on particularly stressful workdays and "eat our feelings" there. And knowing the creature of habit that I am, they already know what my order would be: the Low Calorie Healthy Plate a.k.a. the one with grilled fish, garlic rice, steamed vegetables, and iced tea a.k.a. my ultimate comfort food. For particularly bad days, I throw in dessert (Plain Yogurt) to the mix. I don't know when this particular ritual of ours began, but it has served us well. It helps that Kenny's fare is generally healthier than other fastfoods, so we can indulge without the guilt. Also, the setting is conducive to catching up and airing out our problems. It's not too loud, the lighting is nice and warm, and the seating and temperature comfortable. Apart from the meal I mentioned above, there are many other meal choices, with their Roasted Chicken as the star of the show. Try their side dishes and pick a favorite. Mine are the Coleslaw and the Sour Cream and Chives Potatoes, yum! This particular branch has a Seattles Best Coffee branch attached to it, which is convenient is you need caffeine after your meal or if some of your companions just want coffee for lunch or dinner.

Ambience Dine-in space is pretty wide and well-lit with…read morestrong morning music playing in the background to set the day's mood positively. They have television playing ads and Solenn Heussaff's is sexy and hilarious! Although they have coffee, Seattle's Best is just literally next door if you want more coffee options. Food I've just finished consuming some delicious breakfast food here for the first time. Looking for lunch solo meals isn't necessary (or possible since it really starts lunch time). The chicken is still served roasted and garlic rice plus coffee hit the spot nicely. I'm really happy their chicken still tastes good and the quarter chicken is pretty big!

As fast food steakhouses rise up and flood the food scene, their quality becomes a confusion,…read morealongside customer satisfaction of both price and taste. However, Steak Escape is in the middle of this conundrum and confusion. They serve generous amounts of meat and rice (and even gravy) on a sizzling plate that will speak out to your very hungry stomach. I recommend their Sirloin steak, the T-bone steak and any dish with eggs! Their java rice would also not disappoint you, and if you're a heavy eater, immediately order extra rice. The flavors of the steak, java rice and gravy complement one other very well, you would not mind its intense burning sensation upon ordering (hey, it's on a sizzling plate, after all).

Meat. That's what this place is…read more It's meat, plain and simple. Sometimes you don't know what you want except your mouth wants *MEAT*. Thankfully Steak Escape has got you covered. I'm not one of those people who worry about food at the food court. After all, it's one of the places you can get the cheapest meals when out in the mall. Either way, I never have to worry about the food at Steak Escape even if I was picky. Whatever you order, it's cooked right there at the back and served with a ladle of gravy. When it comes to you, it's smoking and sizzling and does have the ability to burn a hole through your cup of soda if you aren't careful. With affordable prices and pretty generous servings, this is probably one of the food court spots I willingly go to when I can't find anywhere specific I want to eat. One thing though: remember that bit I said about food being cooked before it gets handed to you? That can sometimes cause a bit of a wait so be prepared to stand in line with the rest of the patrons to wait for your food. And wait for it to cool a bit before taking that first bite. I know it's hard but you must resist. I've lost count of how many times I've burned my tongue on a spoonful of hot rice and meat.
