I got the Bacon Bleu Cheese Meal, a fat and juicy 1/ 3 lbs. well-seasoned pure beef burger patty, smoked and grilled to utmost perfection, topped with fresh lettuce, white onions and sliced red tomatoes; finished with an abundant amount of bleu cheese and sandwiched by big burger buns similar to a freshly baked pandesal. The meal also includes their famous big cut fries and a soft drink of your choice. Also, you can't go wrong with their Jalapeño burger; their famous beef patty kicked with the spiciness of jalapeño, salsa, lettuce and cheese. If you love pasta, don't miss out on their awesome pesto spaghetti.

I visited this place because it was recommended by a popular and credible local food blog. To my disappointment, the promising review on their dishes never shone through in any of what we had ordered. Since they advertise that they're known for their meats, I opted for the baby back ribs with BBQ sauce. Tho that ribs were tender and falling off the bone, the sauce was just too sweet and extremely salty. It came with a side of OK-tasting french fries (perhaps to weather down the nightmare that is the BBQ sauce?). I also ordered some mashed potatoes. The mashed tasted too artificial and again, extremely salty. Are going for gallstones, here? I was thinking maybe it was just me, but then I sampled my friend's Truffle Pasta. At this point, I had no expectations that it would be anything different. True enough, although the pasta wasn't too salty, it was too garlicky and there was almost no hint of truffles. In a nutshell, it was like a carbonara you'd get in a Class B local resto chain. My friend and I were looking around the other diners if they were experiencing the same, but they all seemed to be enjoying the food. We didn't know if the whole situation was absurd, hilarious, or just downright appalling. I'm never going back to Mati's. Ever.

Mati's Meat & Bread I quickly looking to be one of the bang for your buck steak places in the Metro, making it worth the trip. Mati's is owned by the same people behind local steakhouse chain Melo's, so you are at least assured of the quality of beef they use. I was pleasantly surprised when I found out that they cook the steak right in front of you so you can control the doneness. If it's not to your liking, you have no one to blame but yourself. Notable highlights in the menu are the truffled bone marrow because the presentation is simply stunning. The taste isn't half bad either. Another dish worth mentioning is the Balut Aligue, which is as sinfully decadent as the name would suggest. Mati's gets two thumbs up in my book!

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!

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.

It looked like French Toast. It was a big piece of bread cut in half but I tasted it, it was really good. It wasn't heavy like I thought it would be. It was very light and it had the perfect toast on its edges. It went really well with the pulled pork. The serving was quite little so I felt like I wasn't as satisfied but it was good. I think that it was just right for breakfast and I didn't feel sad about what I ate. It was a well-cooked meal so I don't have any complains other than the size or the serving. The pulled pork was really good and that's probably why I really wanted to eat more.
