Bocadillo's is located in Fast bytes, Northgate; where life is alive at night because of the call centers around itand people line up to get a bite of this awesome wrap. Their beef taco is my ultimate favorite; the warm, soft flour tortilla filled with seasoned beef, imported fat sour cream, crisp shredded lettuce, chopped tomatoes and cheddar cheese wrapped like a sandwich and eating it like one too. Sink your teeth onto the soft wrap and let the tasty juice ooze out to let your taste buds enjoy the different flavors of chili, garlic, cumin, onions, oregano incorporated in all beefy goodness. They also have different Pinoy-Mexican wraps such as Philly cheese steak (that uses bistek tagalog), Chicken Fajitas, Chicken Chimichangas, Quesadillas, Nachos, Crispy Fish Soft Tacos and their real lemonade with cucumbers are the best on the menu.

They said it'd take a minute for the burrito's arrival but it took a bit longer; they probably meant it as an expression so it's totally okay. No service charge.

Miggy's serves "easy" Mexican food and by easy, I mean the no fuss, no fancy schmancy ingredients, just the simple tacos, nachos, quesadillas, flautas and burritos. My personal favorite would have to be their pizza - thin, crispy crust with an overload of ingredients like tomato sauce, ground beef, red and green bell peppers, onions, tomatoes, and cheese. I then grab their hot sauce and zigzag it all over the 6-inch pizza before chomping down on it an savoring every crunchy, flavorful bite. To add to the appral of this food shack, they even have cactus-shaped seats and lined the surrounding area with several kinds of cactus. Adorable! I feel a certain responsibility in patronizing small enterprises such as Miggy's because I believe it's a business born from passion and not just to make money. Hoping others continue to support Miggy's as their neighborhood Mexican fix so more people can enjoy it in the future.

I usually go to Fridays for local draft beer (which I really enjoy), and I also like their mojito! I usually go there to have a chill night out where service is great and the servers, even the bartenders are really nice.. Sometimes they even make conversation. I'm a sucker for cheese sticks, so I ordered their Mozzarella sticks which were really awesome! I really love the breading that they use on those sticks! I also got to try their fish and chips, and their nachos that go so well with beer! They're called Ball Park Nachos and I love all the different toppings they put on those nachos! But what I really enjoyed eating was the Fridays Chicken Quesadilla. From the moment I tried it, it never really left my mind.

Shoutout to TGIFriday's Jumeirah Beach. Today, to celebrate my birthday, and at the same time, Father's Day, we decided to dine at TGIFriday's Festival Mall Alabang - with the same expectation. We waited almost 30 minutes to get to a table. Understandable. It's Sunday and of course, it's Father's Day! Syempre maraming customers! Ang init lang sa labas - pagpapawisan ka talaga ng malala hahaha bago matawag name mo para makapasok kayo at makaupo. First impression was okay- nice ambiance. Nice crowd! We were immediately served the appetizers- nachos, and salads kasi ubos na daw yung cheese something. Before we got there medyo gutom na din kami kasi when we woke up earlier today, we rushed to go to church at Victory Alabang Festival Mall so we just had coffee and cake na handa ko kagabi nung birthday ko . We attended worship service and then went directly to TGIFridays. We enjoyed the nachos and dips, as well as the drinks- my sister ordered unlimited mojito and me and my husband ordered Mango Tango and the 2 kids ordered watermelon shake. Then came the main - pork loins, rice and some side dish na veggies. Okay lang kanin medyo mamantika lang pero acceptable. Veggie was fine - edible d ko lang talaga ma gets why 5 kami sa table pero 3 knives lang nilagay? Okay lang inintindi namin- I told myself, probably the meat doesn't need a knife, probably it's soft and tender and all that. Luh- eto na, we were all eating na when nagkatinginan na lang kami. Bakit ganito? ANG TIGAS!! ‍ We still gave it a chance - wala talaga - d na namin naubos kada plate. We ended our meal, asked for our bill and then for their awareness, sinabihan ko yung server na matigas nga pork nila. And then asked to have the leftovers be packed para kako sa aso namin. We left the place very disappointed and frustrated. I was not feeling okay that time- just had fever and sinisipon pa- it was my birthday yesterday and then Father's Day. So I wanted to eat something special naman sana. Kaso it was ruined. Hay. Never again TGIFriday's Festival Mall Alabang. This is all your fault TGIFridays Jumeirah Beach, Dubai, for setting a high expectation. Sana all TGIFridays brances in the Philippines are like you, will learn from you and will set the standard for quality and meal that is truly value for mo

After seeing my friend's wife post on Facebook photos of manam CAFE's Crispy Pancit Palabok, they…read morewere automatically added to my bucket list. Needless to say, as we were planning our November, 2024 trip to the Philippines, I made sure to add manam CAFE to our itinerary. Part of The Moment Group, a premier, fast-growing restaurant group in the Philippines known for creating popular homegrown brands like 8cuts BURGER BLENDS and ooma, manam CAFE is a casual, all-day dining version of the popular manam COMFORT FILIPINO restaurant. They are widely celebrated for serving Filipino classics in two ways: Classics (traditional recipes) and Twists (modern reinterpretations). My much-anticipated visit to manam CAFE was for lunch at the MOLITO Lifestyle Center on Sunday, November 17, 2024. We were a large party of 13 persons, so when we arrived around 11 AM, we had to wait a few minutes for a long table nearby the entrance. The dining room was quite busy with most if not all tables occupied. The venue was clean and bright with natural light shining through the windows despite the light rain that day. The vibrant setting was perfect for lunching. manam CAFE's extensive menu boasts a curated, diverse culinary offering tailored to satisfy every palate. From traditional Filipino dishes like Sinigang na Baboy sa Sampaloc (₱235, ₱430, ₱795) and Chocolate Champorado (₱185) to innovative creations like Sinigang na Beef Short Rib & Watermelon (₱295, ₱530, ₱925) and Ube Champorado (₱185), the dining experience is fit for curious eaters. We ordered: Fresh Lumpiang Ubod (L, ₱295) - Is it just me or is ubod (heart of palm) a new lumpia filling? I never saw this before this trip. The sweet-savoury peanut sauce was tasty, but I do prefer lumpiang sariwa (fresh) with sautéed vegetables over ubod. Crispy Pancit Palabok (L, ₱745) - One of their signature dishes, this rendition of palabok with a fun twist was what reeled me in to manam CAFE and it did not disappoint. After the wow factor from the savoury orange sauce creatively poured atop the mound of crisp noodles, the unique pancit transformed into a pleasantly chewy noodle dish with layers of textures. Crispy Pata with Garlic Chili Bits (M, ₱685) - The golden-brown crispy pork knuckles stood out as the star dish of the lunch for its burst of flavour in every bite and lasting crisp from the crunchy, spicy garlic-chili bits. Munggo & Chicharon - (M, ₱340) - This is one of my favourite stews, definitely comfort food for me. manam serves this as more of a hearty mung bean bisque, creamy like ginataan (cooked with coconut milk). While it still embodied the heartwarming flavours that I expected, I wasn't into the creaminess. Sinigang na Beef Short Rib & Watermelon (L, ₱295) - Despite Kuya Peter telling us that this sinigang with watermelon "sounds weird, but it works," this adaptation of the Filipino tamarind soup was not a favourite of the family's due to the sweet flavour. I wasn't as disappointed in this dish as everyone else was, but I was the only American-born of the group. Does that make a difference? Not-so-dirty Ice Cream (₱115) - Our party ordered two; one Ube and one Macapuno or maybe it was Vanilla? Both cups of sorbetes were fully enjoyed. Turon of Mango & Kesong Puti with Ice Cream (₱175) - Banana lumpia with a modern twist, incorporating mangoes and Kesong Puti (Filipino soft, aged white cheese) and served with ice cream. Interesting, but I prefer the classic. Bibingkang Galapong with Salted Egg (₱145) - The Filipino rice cake made with fermented glutinous rice and salted egg wasn't bad, but I was looking for the banana leaf wrap. Puto Bumbong with Muscovado Butter (₱130) - This seasonal dessert, one of Mom's longtime favourites, is usually served only during Christmas, but, thanks to manam, aficionados can enjoy it here all year-long. The muscovado butter's rich, caramel-like richness is meant to elevate the purple earthy-sweet chewy rice cake, but Mom longed for the traditional version instead. Ube + Sago (₱175) - A purple glass of happiness with ube's satisfying earthy notes perfectly complemented by the chewy sago (tapioca balls). Namnam Halo-halo (₱185) - This Filipino-style shaved ice made with sweetened beans, fruits, and jellies and topped with milk, Leche Flan and Ube ice cream was vibrantly colourful and refreshing. Iced Coffee + Black Sago (₱205) - The mouthwatering shake-like coffee drink with chewy tapioca could have double served as a dessert. Guinumis (₱155) - Yum, this cooler highlighted the creaminess of the coconut milk, the silky smoothness of the pink gulaman (a gelatin made from agar or carrageenan extracted from edible seaweed), and the lovely toasted flavour of pinipig (flattened, immature grains of glutinous rice). Service was attentive and friendly. Serving local favourites alongside modern, reinvented dishes, manam CAFE caters to both traditionalists & adventurous eaters who want to try new twists on old staples.

Food - I appreciate having choices (small, medium, large) on the serving sizes for all the dishes. We ordered the traditional pansit palabok, crispy sisig, beef watermelon sinigang, fresh lumpiang ubod and beef salpicao. The palabok and the sisig were a perfect combination. The sisig was so crispy and flavorful. The palabok tasted even better with calamansi and had the right amount of sauce. The watermelon flavor in the sinigang was recognizable but did not take away from its original flavor. We ordered the medium size but it did not seem to have enough veges or beef. The salpicao was very good, maybe a tad salty. The beef was tender. The fresh lumpiang ubod was delicious. The ubod tasted fresh. We loved every dish. Oh, we also had the buko pandan shake and ube shake. Soooo good! I know I will miss this place when we return to the U.S. Service - our water glasses were always filled. Appreciated our server's wit and humor. When we all made fun of ourselves for whipping out our senior ids at the same time when he asked for our ids, he immediately said, "student ids po." Of course, we all laughed at his quick wit. We were so hungry and excited to eat, we forgot to take pictures of the food. Bottom line, Manam is one of my favorite Filipino restaurant. The food is great and the prices are so reasonable.
