We went there on a Saturday before lunch and we were seated right away. But during lunchtime, place is jam-packed. You know a place serves good food if people are willing to wait in line.

We will definitely comeback since there's still alot on their menu that we want to try.

The dim sum cart came around quick, and we loaded up on hakaw, siu mai, char siu bao, and those amazing crispy taro puffs--everything was hot, fresh, and tasted just like the old-school spots back home. The spare ribs were tender and saucy, not overly sweet, and the yang chow fried rice had that perfect wok hei. Service was friendly even though it was packed; our server made sure we had hot tea refills without us asking. Super affordable too--we fed six of us and still had leftovers for under 2k. Total comfort food win. Definitely heading back next time we're in the area. Five stars all the way!

We had 2 servings of fresh shrimp hakaw and scallop dumplings, asado siopao, stir-fried beef hofan and steamed fish with garlic which we were all able to finish in no time. The dimsum were at it's finest -- comapring to the other dimsum shops we've tried. Hofan was something that we ordered just because it looks appetizing on the next table (haha!), but it never disappointed us. The beef toppings were huge and generous. The fish dish was their bestseller under Seafood category, in which we ought to try. It was delish but looks oily. Nevertheless, perfect as well. We were billed around 1100php for 4, which is not so bad. The servers were friendly and consistently serving us with a smile. Plus points for having wifi access!

We had agreed to meet at President, which I had heard of but never actually gone to. One of the guys said they had really good dimsum. So fine, we agreed to meet there for lunch. We came in sep'fore a waiter came to take our orders. He seemed surly but we were all peeved, and made our feelings known. After he took our orders, we thought our ordeal would be over. It wasn't. I swear it took close to an hour for our meals to get to our table. I don't know if it was our collective bad mood, but the food didn't taste all that good to any of us. As far as I know, none of us have ever gone back to President Tea House. What for? There are so many great restaurants in Chinatown, so why bother giving this a second chance?

Looking for a quick fix breakfast? Go to any McDonald's and try their breakfast meals!…read more One of my favorite is their Cheesy Eggdesal meals. I got this morning a Cheesy Ham Eggdesal m.

Great spot in Manila's Chinatown for a quick snack!…read more We came here for some bites while in Binondo, as Quik Snack was recommended on a food blog that I read before visiting Manila. It's a little hard to find, since the alley Quik Snack is located in is small, narrow and a little dark. But once you find the alley, there's a huge Quik Snack sign, signaling you're on your way! We walked in and were able to be seated immediately. The place was pretty busy with locals and tourists. It's on the smaller side, but saw that they can reserve tables for groups. We ordered the Beef Miki Noodles and the Fresh Lumpia, which were both recommended by our server. For a drink I also ordered an Iced Coffee. Coffee came out first and was surprised to find that the Iced Coffee had vanilla ice cream and coffee jelly in it, so was on the sweeter side. I'm not big on sweet coffees, so thought it was fine, but not something I'd order again. But the food is the reason why you come here! The Beef Miki Noodles were awesome! I loved how much peanut flavor you get with the noodles and it was sauteed well in its sauce, which was pepper-y and flavorful. Beef pieces were tender and loved how much green onion came with, adding more flavor! It was also a good size for sharing. The Fresh Lumpia was a nice and different snack! Unlike other lumpias which are usually fried, the Fresh Lumpia is not fried and is much bigger in size, like a mini burrito. They also cut it in half, making it easy to share, though you'll not want to! It had a ton of filling of ground pork and veggies inside, so you definitely get your money's worth. Both of the snacks we ordered were yummy, and would recommend both items. Glad to have found Quik Snack while in Binondo, as it serves Chinese-Filipino food, with a ton of different snack options and is huge on flavor! It's also very affordable and a good eatery for sharing, especially since you'll want to try multiple items from here.

There is no seating, so be prepared to eat it quickly or while you're walking to your next destination.

Now this is just CORPORATE GREED and milking the consumer for every peso they have. The pizza is good but this policy of buying a cup to get drinking water is just ridiculous.

A few weeks ago, I discovered that a branch has finally opened in Makati. At the streetside section of Glorietta 2, directly facing Landmark, it's hard to miss the place. What with a conspicuously designed name printed on its glass window and right above the entrance. Finding a seat is also not a problem as the dining area is huge and there are plenty of tables and chairs. I liked Wingstop even before I tasted their food. The reason: Their food choices are few. You'll not be overwhelmed by different options or types of food. Their menu revolves around chicken wings. Since their Makati branch is fairly new, I imagined that customers would take a long time to decide what to order. But it didn't take long for the people ahead of me to finish their transactions at the counter. It could be that everyone had already tried Wingstop and knew what to eat or it could be that 7:00pm is not a good time to eat wings (are you kidding me?). Since I was on my way home, I decided to have my orders in a takeaway bag. I simply wanted to sample their wings so I got a 7-piece order of wings with two flavors - Garlic Parmesan and Louisiana Rub. Both taste great but I liked the Louisiana Rub better because of its sweet and mild spicy flavor.
