Being in the Philippines the McDo (local slang for McDonald's) offers white rice, fried chicken and other Filipino favorites, in addition to the standard items you'd expect. The fried chicken was incredibly tasty. I wish they'd offer this item in the States. If you're in Dasmarinas, then give Micky D's or McDo a try.

The staff is always friendly and are not afraid to answer your questions with regards to their menu. Order the regular items from the main menu and don't go for the promos like "2 for 499" the portions are for kids and won't fill up adults, but the food os always good. Too bad they don't offer the other pancake varieties anymore like the pancakes with chilis or the waffle that is loaded with bacon chips... Yes that's how old I am. . The place is cozy as always

While waiting for taping to start on #The Foodcrawlers third episode of #ChatAndChew, I had…read morebreakfast at a nearby cafe 75 Lilac. I enjoyed the Crispy Bacon Silog very much. I have had deep-fried and battered bacon before, and I had always found it too greasy, and too thickly-battered. The crispiness of 75 Lilac's bacon is just right, and a spritz of citrus makes the whole meal less heavy but still filling. When we were served the Salted Egg Chicken Lollipops, the aroma instantly reminded me of arroz caldo. The scent of ginger was pretty strong, and there was not a hint of salted egg in this dish. I mean...I like it...but if you're looking for a salted-egg-yolk-tasting dish then you might be disappointed.

Here are what I've tried so far: First visit: 1) Chicken lollipops with salted egg - not sure if I got the name correctly, but I did enjoy this, though maybe they could decrease the sweetness here. 2) Strawberry cream cheese waffles - I love the syrup that they use here, it's not too sweet! Even the strawberry compote doesn't have the "umay" kind of sweetness. 3) Green tea creme brulee - would have loved this more had it been colder :) Kind of surprised that it has more or less the same price as a popular ramen shop's version. That ramen shop is located in a mall. Second visit: 1) Garlic baby squid - this is so good, but a bit on the sweet side instead of the garlicky side. Anyway, I was a bit shocked by its small serving. It's definitely not good for sharing. 2) Blueberry waffles - still good, but BURNT underneath :( I'm still interested to go back and try their other offerings, but I hope they could work on their price-serving ratio. Also, it seems that they overuse chopping boards as trays...I mean, c'mon, even drinks? They can consume a lot of table space.

I ordered Mama's Lasagna. The waitress came back and informed me that they were out of lasagna. I asked if they have fettucine alfredo. A blank look came over her face as she stated that she had never heard of it. Ok. THIS is an Italian restaurant. I asked her how big a 10" pizza would be. She didn't know? I decided on a 12" pizza to be on the safe side. My wife's marsala arrived and it looked and tasted like country fried chicken with cream gravy. Definitely not Chicken Marsala! It was tasty though. My pizza came and it was about the right size for me. It was tasty also. Overall, Mama Lou's needs to make sure their employee's are familiar with Italian food and able to answer simple questions. Will I go back? Probably not. I can get good pizza elsewhere.

Coming from NY/NJ area in the US, we visited family back home and I have Rustic Mornings restaurant…read moreon top of my to go to list. I just really had to taste the food and see what the hype is all about. As we enter the place, we saw an awe-inspiring ambience. A beautiful marriage of mostly antique designs and the luxuries of intimate setting. Sitting in any table will give you that casual vibe with a rustic sense of feel and comfort. We had a warm welcoming followed by excellent service. I'd say they put a lot of attention to details and flavor to please you and your cravings.. Dining at this unique restaurant, I was given a test of my appetite's limits. It's because every platter of food is sooo good, I'm almost not willing to leave anything on the table as the meal winds down. The menu offers a wide variety of mouth watering starters. We tried the spinach artichoke dip. The flatbread is exceptional when dunked into that oh-so-lusciously creamy sauce filled with spinach and artichoke that my tongue couldn't resist. We were then served with fish and garlic rice inside the wrapper that's deep fried until its magnificently crunchy which the Filipino menu calls "Tinapa Burrito" and its definitely a favorite! We also had the Filipino Breakfast Platter for main course which consisted of tocino, eggs, garlic rice, tapa and that palatable dilis. The breakfast platter was exquisite. Then we had the Kofta Balls. These savory and beautiful mediterranean meat balls with a very well seasoned curry sauce was a hearty flavorful meal. It's a must try! The Spanish Callos, was very tender and deliciously well prepped meal which really thrilled us. I would say all the food were fresh and had the warmth of legit home-made food. They definitely took great care in selecting the best quality ingredients. Then comes the sweets... we had the Crispy Waffle Churros and Brownie Waffle A' la mode. A flavor-bomb by itself you dont need to add any other sauce. Both are crunchy on the outside yet very nice, soft, and delicious on the inside. And so is the French Toast tower. Just ahhhh-mazingly good food! The pancake is insanely fluffy and moist. It was cooked to perfection. This restaurant is exceptional. There's something for everyone. We had very pleasant dining experience with food of the most mouth watering delectable flavors. I highly recommend going to Rustic Mornings. Its definitely worth a travel from the east coast and I really would love go back to Philippines for this.

Must try item , they have a bottle of the dip for P200. Their waffles and churros combo is divine and so is their french toast. We also had the boneless bangus breakfast and the tocino breakfast which I also highly recommend. From breakfast to brunch to the now added dinner menu due to high demand, I suggest you call in advance for reservations as place was already packed by the time we got there at 8am. Plenty of free parking at the back. The ambience, the food, the artistic designs makes Rustic Morning a MUST TRY on your list! 2 thumbs up, way up, 5 stars! 1 Michelin star
