Just like Ice Cube and Dr. Dre and Ren were selling their CDs outta their trunk, in LA. Years later Sia, aka Injap, was bought out by Jollibee for 68 million USD. Yes, USD, mind bending I know!! And the marinade recipe is so simple, because we were able to replicate it with the simple ingredients of Coconut vinegar, anatto oil (for red color) and lemongrass and Calamansi (lemon/lime hybrid). FYI, our chicken didn't come close but A for effort, namean!! There are now numerous locations throughout the Philippines (15,000 employees later) and we came to this one because it was close to the Pasay crib and we enjoyed smelling the smoke for medicinal purposes while waiting for our chicken. The chicken breast was awesome, the pork skewers were a bit fatty and undercooked. I'll stick exclusively to the chicken next time, note to self. Mang Inasal, when are you and Conti's coming to the US??

If you're looking for straightforward Filipino comfort food in the BGC or Market! Market! area,…read morethis spot is a solid contender--especially since they serve beer. They are best known for their signature roast chicken and pork belly, but the rest of the menu holds its own. We visited over the weekend for a late lunch (around 2:00 PM) and tried the fried chicken and pork belly. While the flavors were still good, you could tell the food had been sitting out for a while. Even though we arrived during off-peak hours, the restaurant was still about 80% full, so it would have been great if they served a fresher batch rather than what was left under the heat lamp. The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming, which goes a long way. Don't expect anything fancy; the setting is quite basic and nothing to write home about. This branch is significantly better in terms of quality and service compared to their Makati location. Only issue I have is that they obviously ran our of clean utensils, they offered disposable ones that did not match. Fork was plastic and the spoon was wooden. For the price and quality, it's a nice place to visit if you're in the neighborhood and craving the basics. It's reliable Filipino fare, though your experience might be even better if you catch them during peak hours when the food turnover is higher.

I gotta have SEX tonight, I gotta have it! SEX tayo please! Okay, now that I'm done poking fun at this restaurant's acronym. It's time for the real review of Sinangag Express or what others like to call it as SEX. First of all, you basically get food that was made to give a specific purpose: to cure a hangover when drunk and to ward of hunger without breaking the bank. SEX is fast. You can come and go in a few minutes depending on how hungry you are, and since the food is delicious you're likely to be out the door right away. The basic tapsilog costs around P75 these days (They started at P39. Damn you inflation) even then, you're still going to get a decent meal that will keep you happy for a couple of hours. So,if you happen to be in the BF area. Don't hesitate on trying SEX. You're more or less likely to want to have SEX all the time.
