Soup isn't too big here in Manila. Perhaps its our tropical climate. You don't hear people say "I'm…read morecraving for big bowl of hot vegetable soup right now!" too often. But, I love soup! And on this particular day I saw that The Soup Kitchen had a tomato-based veggie soup (I'm vegan), but I was taken aback by the price as it's a bit too spendy--the smallest bowl for already Php 125? Well, I was starving and there wasn't much else appropriate for vegans at Cash and Carry's food kiosks, so might as well give it a shot. The soup was pretty flavorful, and I enjoyed it, though I wouldn't say it was remarkable. But I do know that if this cost me Php 60 I would be delighted. For Php 125, one would expect more, so I did. Oh well?

Every once in a while, you come across a unique little food kiosk that will just reel you in with…read moreits novelty. That's how the siomai thing got started, how takoyaki got started, and so many others. I don't know if there's a lot of this already but I thought it was pretty one of a kind when I saw this soup kiosk, aptly titled The Soup Kitchen. I've always been a soup person, especially since my mom loves to experiment and create different types of soups at home. This food kiosk indulges exactly that kind of curiosity with an attractive display of black commercial soup warmers all arranged in a neat row at the very facade of the kiosk. Just that, nothing else. There's about seven or eight different types of soup and you just pick which one you want and the attendant serves it to you. You can choose among a quarter, half, or full bowl sizes or get one of the meal-type items where the soup comes in a bread bowl and you can have a sandwich on the side. The soup menu changes everyday from their bank of over a hundred soup recipes which they make from the freshest ingredients. It's pretty pricey for a food kiosk type of thing at about Php120 and up, but it can be a decent, healthy meal, and soup is always good!

I invited my mom to have a dinner date with me because she's been living in Hong Kong for many years, and she absolutely loves Chinese food! Before you even enter the restaurant, you can really see how well they've decorated the restaurant! From the entrance, to the ceilings, walls, tables, absolutely everything! They serve the usual Chinese food, like siomai, Hakaw, Pork Buns, and the like.. But they've also got unique dishes I've never heard of or seen anywhere else like their Northern Style Lamb Dumplings, and their Minced Lamb wrapped in Pancake with leeks (this dish was delish!) We ordered a lot of food like the Smoked Duck Breast in Hoisin Wrap! I love duck and this dish is so good and contains a lot of vegetables! Their chicken dishes are also quite known to those who have tried them because of how good they are... I especially LOVE their sweet and sour chicken and their Honey Sesame Crispy chicken too!

Opting for a quick bite, we had pork and chive dumplings which were a tad bit small but big in size. Love the hint of star anise in its filling and black vinegar dipping sauce that came with it (I usually request for black vinegar at other dimsum places). On the other hand, the beef Hofan was pretty good and textbook stir fry- good balance of flavor and textures. Both dishes came too oily but that's synonymous with Chinese comfort food!

You can expect consistently firm noodles here. While the broth isn't flavorful, there are enough toppings to keep eating interesting. A word of caution: the soup is indeed HOT.

The set included a bowl of rice for each person, a tray of veges consisting of Napa cabbage, enoki mushrooms, bokchoy, squash, corn and carrots. There are several choices of broth. We selected the spicy miso and seaweed broth. We were also served a tray of thinly sliced beef, a soy sauce based dip with which to dip the beef and a peanut based dip. I had a cold and this food was so comforting and soothing. The miso broth was spicy and flavorful. The shrimp tempura was so tender and crispy at the same time. The chicken karaage was also crispy and yummy. Will definitely be back.

Still, I find myself coming back for more, even when "more" is something I've had before. Their soup and stew-based dishes are always waiting to warm you up. It's like coming home and thinking "Oh I know I'll have mom getting some (insert favorite dish by mom here) ready for me." You know what to expect, and that's all you want.

Most of the restaurants in BF Homes open at 11 am, earliest probably is 10 or 9:30. Little Quiapo opens at 7 am so if you are too lazy to cook breakfast just go here.
