Island City Mall is a 3 floor shopping complex that is clean, organised and modern. You have to pass through mall security to enter and exit and all stores/businesses have security personnel also. Which is a nice feature in modern society.  The mall was packed with people and Jollibee had a large crowd inside. The customers were mostly families, women with young children. It was impressive how this Jollibee restaurant ran in a precise machine like manner to handle the large flow of customers.  I ordered the Jolly Super Meal, a fried chicken drumstick (Chickenjoy), small cup of white rice with a small gravy holder, burger steak patty in mushroom gravy, spaghetti covered with a sweet ketchup type sauce topped with shredded cheese, soft drink. The Chickentjoy, rice was tasty, the rest was ok. I did not care for the ketchup spaghetti.  If you need to visit the bathroom (comfort room) there are no sinks. Sinks are located in the wash area which is beside the comfort doors. Jollibee is the Philippine version of McDonalds/KFC.  Note: No meal in the Philippines is complete unless rice is served. Rice is a requirement for every meal.

I understand the hype. Pungko-Pungko sa Frente certainly knows how to put on a show, with loud…read morecalls, energetic staff, and tables piled high with food. The lively presentation draws people in, but unfortunately, the food didn't live up to the performance. The thin-sliced pork chops looked as though they should have been the highlight--looked crispy and crunchy like chicharrones. Instead, they were tough and seemed undercooked. Biting into the pork chop skin was like chewing on shoe leather. They were nowhere near the crisp, crunchy texture I expected. The Shanghai lumpia had almost no filling, consisting mostly of a soggy wrapper and oil. The crab cakes served in the shell didn't seem to contain any crab either--just potato and jicama. And the meatballs would be more accurately described as a jicama balls. The rice puso was cold, bland, and dry. At first, I wondered whether that was simply how it was meant to be, but it made the meal even less enjoyable. The chicharron bulaklak was another disappointment. It didn't seem properly prepared and had an unpleasant aftertaste. Overall, it looks like a fun experience, but the meal finished flat. The atmosphere and presentation are entertaining, but the food itself didn't deliver. Not recommended. 2 stars.

The Food The menu is straightforward and unapologetic: if it…read morecan be fried, they serve it. You'll find Pork, Chicken, Sausage, and Lumpia, all served crispy and paired with a signature vinegar dipping sauce that cuts right through the richness. The Vibe & Essentials It's a rustic, high-energy spot that can get quite crowded. Timing: It gets busy fast! Aim for off-peak hours to snag a seat without the wait. Hydration: They only serve Mountain Dew. If you aren't looking for a sugar rush, bring your own bottled water. Climate Control: It gets hot and humid. I highly recommend bringing a portable fan and a small towel to stay comfortable. The Verdict Is it a five-star luxury experience? No. Is it a delicious, authentic, and fun time? Absolutely. Despite the heat and the limited drink options, the food and the atmosphere make it a win. We'll definitely be back for another round!

Best Native Chicken! [CEBU CITY Philippines]…read more When it comes to food, Cebu has a lot to offer. From savory lechon (roast pork) to sweet desserts Cebu is a foodie's paradise. But we have been eating some form of lechon since we arrived on New Year's Day so I was getting tired of it LoL! just a little. I ordered grilled chicken instead. Conching's is famous for one thing: their charcoal-grilled native chicken. What is a native chicken? They are more commonly raised in rural areas, cage-free. They are smaller in size than the regular chicken, it's because of their organic diet. Both its size and diet make these native chicken unique and more natural in taste. We ordered two servings and it didn't disappoint. So delicious, salted just right and the skin is crunchy. Setting looks rundown, nothing fancy with long tables and plastic chairs and a grill out front. Very laid back. Live music entertained the diners... young adults with music instruments. I was amused. Filipinos love to sing. LoL!Friendly service. I just didn't like the flies... we had to keep swatting them so they don't go on our food. Review #3349

Visiting Cebu City - my girlfriend raved about the Native Chicken and that we had to try it - so…read moreupon arriving in Cebu City my gf's cousin took us here... Not sure what authentic should feel like but this restaurant felt authentic considering I was the only foreigner there... One of the waiters is an interesting one - done up in a lot of make up and apparently very flirtatious and seems like he's a staple of the restaurant per their Facebook page... Anyway the native chicken cooked on these little grills but the chicken themselves are tiny - you probably need about one chicken a person. They have a lot of other grilled and friend foods including various fish - milkfish was the only one I recognized. We also tried the ceviche (local name I don't remember) but extremely good!! You should also try the puso which are the individually packaged rice which are local to cebu.... Very cool place and recommended if visiting,

When I think of BonChon, the first thing that enter my heads is Korean style fried chicken. the…read moresmall wings and drum-lets combo box. But in the Philippine BonChon is Fish & Chips or calamari with plain white rice, the the chicken is full size pieces in order to compete with Jollibee and McDonald's. The Fish & Chips will make your mouth water! It really is such a delicious meal for a pretty small amount of pesos. Their fish is tasty, crispy and best of all, spicy! Don't get me wrong, their fried chicken is also pretty good, and comes in the same flavors you used too, Soy Garlic, Spicy, Honey Citrus, or Crunchy Garlic, all which taste great. In the States, two pieces of fried chicken just isn't enough because because of size but here it is. You can order the other dishes of BonChon, their Chapchae, Fish Tacos I hear it is really good, Chicken Sandwich, Bulgogi Noodle Soup, and their sweet potato fries.

It was pretty darn good. Not the best I've had, but better than I thought it would be. Chicken for the rest of the family It was Korean Style Bbq Chicken, and it tasted delicious. If you find yourself at Mactan International Airport in Cebu, Philippines then seek them out. Good food at a fair price at an airport. Bon Appetit!
