GIRL AKO OKAY NA SA TURON AT ICE TUBIG Para sa fans ng chicken wings and steaks, I found the place for you! (Syempre ako yung bida bigla ano) Go kayo at Blake's Wings & Steaks in Marikina City! Obviously, they offer wings and steaks (try their Porterhouse Steak baby) pero meron din naman silang salad, sandwich, pasta, different sides and some desserts. Hindi pa masyadong malawak (parang hacienda lang eh hahaha) yung menu nila pero basta kumakain ka ng steak at wings (baka lumipad ka teh) solved ka na dito! Limited lang yung parking slots (3 or 4 na sasakyan lang ata) and it's a little bit pricey for me (yung rice around P40-P50 na). But if you're looking for a new place to try with your friends or family, okay naman dito. Hindi lang siya yung pupuntahan ko madalas (price issue) but the taste ng food naman is good!

On my last visit, I chose a porterhouse steak as my entrée. It came with corn pudding and creamed spinach. I ordered my steak cooked medium-rare, and it was cooked to my exact specification. The steak was nicely marbled and seasoned quite nicely. The portion size was large enough that even though I shared half of the dish with my friend, we could barely finish it. The corn pudding and creamed spinach sides were nicely presented, and went well with the steak. Other times, I've had several "small treasures" from their appetizer list, including crispy pork strips and palm spring rolls. Both of these dishes have interesting textures, nice flavor contrasts, and are served with both vinegar and hot/sweet chili sauce - delishous! Service at Mamou is both polite and attentive; I'll be back for sure :-)

Their sili wings are also amaaaaazing! However, their wings are a little bit more expensive compared to other Lilac restaurants that also offer wings. I also love their burrito rice bowls because of their hefty serving sizes and deliciousness! They have a good rice-meat-vegetable ratio and good pricing ranging from P165-P185. So filling, especially the 3-meat burrito bowl! My ultimate favorite would be their grilled cheese squares!!! Ugh so buttery and cheesy, aroma pa lang, my mouth waters already! They could still improve the T-bone steak, though, as it was a little bit tough and the marinade used is just so-so. I love the overall feel of the place because it has a nostalgic vibe and makes you think you're really at an American diner. :)

It's big enough to be shared by two to three people but when I'm hungry, I can finish the whole pizza! Our family's favourite is the grilled chicken pizza because you actually see strips of chicken on it plus the fact that the pizza in itself isn't reduced to mere tomato sauce, local cheese, and other basics in a pizza. When this restaurant says pizza, its really pizza. My brother, who is really a picker eater, personally likes creamy cheese pasta. It is really creamy and never did they make tipid cheese. Its really cheese! The place is a bit small considering that there's a lot diners especially during dinner time. So, for people going here for dinner, make sure to come early or you might need to wait for a good 30-45 minutes. Dont worry though, you can place your orders.

Eastwood is our home base and Denny's is our favorite shop for breakfast. There is no Denny's in the U.S. like Denny's Eastwood!!! Here, it is not a dumpy restaurant like the brand in the U.S. Yes, they are open 24/7, but that's where the similarity ends. The Filipino breakfast entrees are so creative and deliciously cooked. The pastries are also made from local Filipino fruits and root crops. The chefs are mindful of presentation, as if this was a fine dining restaurant. Even the slice of Ube Overload cake is on a black slate slab! It is the only place where we can bring fresh Philippine mangoes and have them sliced open, as the fruit is not on their fruits platter menu. The staff is friendly and quick, and they keep the restaurant clean. Our favorite is the night manager, Kis, a well-poised, always smiling young lady who runs her shift like a tight ship. She is actually in her last weeks of working here due to health reasons. We will miss her when we come back in 2027 and beyond.

I know I have and I pass by that area a lot and wouldn't have thought that such a place stood there. One of the hidden gems in Cubao. Two of my foodie friends invited me to have lunch there and of course I wanted to try it out for myself and see if it'll live up to the hype. By hype I mean the stories of how much they love it. The meat falls off the bone, it melts in your mouth and you'd think you died and went to carnivore heaven. It's so good! AND it can do with or without the sauce which is great since it doesn't rely on it to be amazing. I loved it so much that I wanted the home buddies to try so I ordered a half rack to go thinking they'd just TRY and sure enough they finished it right away and were already asking when we're going there. You should visit them when you're in the area, hey, even if you're not anywhere near. It's worth braving the traffic of Metro Manila over.

What is also particularly fetching is the fact that you really get to see their food being cooked in front of you with a very large grill that can occupy a lot of orders and flame-grill the food to perfection for serving on a sizzling hot plate. Even something as simple as a two-piece burger steak meal can become truly special when served with rice on a visibly steaming plate on a cool evening. So for those of you who enjoy flame-grilled items at affordable prices, this may be the lunch or dinner option for you.

This restaurant also has a nice interior with its Southwestern theme. It's not everyday that you get a taste of Southwestern food here in the Philippines. Everytime I go here for lunch with my friends or family, I end up ordering their bottomless Tostada chips served with their tasty and flavorful house-made salsa. For additional dips, you can pay for their Ranch dressing and Queso. For my main course, I often have their Grilled Chicken Sandwich, which has crispy bacon, lettuce, tomato, Swiss cheese, and their to-die-for honey mustard dressing. If you want something sweet after the main course, you can have their Molten Chocolate Cake, which is shaped just like a volcano. A look of this delectably delicious cake would make you drool. It might be a little bit pricey for some of us, but sometimes you have to pay money for good food!

But I still do have a social life you know, which is why I'm thankful to have friends who understand when I'm down and broke. When this happens, Chili's is the obvious choice. Not for their great tasting burgers, not for their quesadillas and not even for their mojitos. Chili's is the obvious choice for their unlimited nachos! Unlimited nachos is actually the best thing ever. I remember there was a time when my dinner group of 4 ordered just that and nothing else. We stayed there for more than 3 hours while we happily downed cold water for drinks. Nothing can really get in the way of saving for that adorable bag, so thank god for unlimited nachos. For good old American food, Chili's is always the best choice.

On the sides were two dishes of chopped cheddar and chopped ham! I explained to the waitress how a Denny's ham n cheese omelette was made. She took it back. They then cooked fresh eggs, layered in the chopped ham, then cheese. Melted just right, folded it, placed it on a clean plate, and served it to me. Delicious.

Upon entering, I was impressed with how the place looks. It's such a stark contrast to its predecessor because of its vibrant vibe and cool decorations. The place is inspired by the movie, "Chef," where the lead character decided to pursue his passion for Cuban cuisine. The walls are adorned with quotes written in chalk, while nostalgic items surround the area, such as old beer bottles, one of the first Nokia phone models, a Nintendo family computer, vinyl records, an analog TV, and other vintage stuff. I also like their cute makeshift lamps! Their menu is written on a long blackboard, and aside from ribs, they also serve wings, some sides, and milkshakes! I was so curious to try the Cubano sandwich, but since we would be eating rice, I told myself, "Next time!" :p A recent addition to their menu is the classic fish and chips, which are actually fries that reminded me of Mcdonald's! Even if they were a bit soggy, they still tasted good. The fish was just ordinary, but unlike the breaded fish of other restaurants, Brad & Pit's breading was light, so I could still taste the actual fish. At P175 per serving, it's quite a good catch (literally and figuratively hehe). I hope they could serve it with tartar sauce, though. Next, we tried their wings. P200 for 6 pairs is a bit pricey for me, but they tasted great! They weren't too spicy nor too oily, and they were served with honey mustard. Brad and Pit's also offers combo meals priced at P149: that's a pair of wings with one side and rice. Whether they're spicy or not, wings go well with milkshakes! Okay, maybe alcoholic drinks are the best partners, but hey, the heat has been unbearable these days, so milkshakes will do! I ordered strawberry, but you can also choose from chocolate and vanilla. Finally, we tried a huge serving (medium) of ribs, aptly called the "Rib Mountain." These babies come in 4 serving options: small, medium, large, and extra large. We were like, "Medium?! Paano pa kaya 'yung extra large - doble nito?!" (Medium? What more if this were the extra large serving - double this size?!) This size is suited for 2-3 people already, and at P385, it's such a steal! Though the meat isn't the fall-off-the-bone kind, the ribs were still flavorful enough. They are best paired with Brad and Pit's specialty rice: cargo and burrito. IT'S SO GOOD! I could eat the rice on its own! :p Brad and Pit's Ribshack is located at 116 Lilac Street, very near the bridge connecting Soliven and Lilac. They are open from 12 noon until 11 pm from Tuesday to Sunday. It's a good place to indulge in affordable ribs and chill with your buddies or family!
