Ninak (Kapitolyo, Pasig City)

Whenever we go to Ninak it is always closed so we end up eating elsewhere. Today we were able to eat at Ninak (Kanin spelled backwards).

We ordered their Ninak Rice, Satay Chicken, Vietnamese Soup and Red Ruby.

We were served first the Vietnamese Soup, it was just okay. Nothing special.

Then the red ruby was served. I did not like their version that much as it was very sweet, probably to cater to the Filipino's preference for sweetness.


While waiting for the other food orders the chef approaced us and gave us a free plate of their Indonesian Pork Belly. It was delicious and surprisingly it was not oily compared with other pork belly. They probably used organic pork.


The Satay followed. The Satay was delicious too. The peanut sauce was equally delicious.


The Ninak Rice was the last to arrive and it was very good also.

Though there was some hit and misses, the Service at Ninak was fast, efficient and friendly. We will definitely be back.

Aling Pining's Crispy Pata (La Loma, Quezon City)

Image
One of Metro Manila's BEST Crispy Pata can be found in a Garage. I found about Aling Pining's Crispy Pata in a FB Comment a few months ago. The Commenter just said the best Crispy Pata can be found in a Garage in Halcon Street in La Loma. With Just Halcon Street as the address we went to La Loma 2 weeks ago in search of Halcon Street Crispy Pata. When we arrived at Halcon Street we just asked the people there where we can buy Crispy Pata. We passed by it already it turned out. It was indeed just a garage. It had a small sign. Halcon Street Crispy Pata was Aling Pinings Crispy Pata.  An Old Lady was the one frying the Crispy Pata. While a middle aged woman  was the one accepting orders. We bought a Crispy Pata (P400) and we were on our way. At home we were eager to finally taste the Crispy Pata. It did not disappoint. The trip to La Loma was worth it. Is it the best? My mom said the one in Marinduque is still the best. For me? Well i need to go back t...

D' Original Matutina's Seafood Restaurant (Dagupan, Pangasinan)

Image
The first time I heard about Matutina's was a few years ago when it was mentioned in the Inquirer that it is a favorite Restaurant of Former President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. Since it was a long drive just to sample their food I had a hard time adjusting an open schedule just to go all the way to Pangasinan.  This morning we were able to finally find time to go all the way to Dagupan, Pangasinan to sample Matutina's. The one we went to is the D'Original Matutina's in Tondaligan, Dagupan, Pangasinan. They have another branch in Urdaneta Also. There is a Matutina's in Tarlac City but i guess this is not connected with the Matutina's. We Ordered the following: Sizzling Bangus - This was just Delicious. The Bangus was Milky. Meat was just perfect.  Inihaw na Pusit - Grilled to perfection. The Squid was tender. Buttered Shrimps - though it was not the buttter shrimp i wished for, the freshness of the shrimps made it good enough ...

Tita Lulu's Pancit Palabok (San Juan, Metro Manila)

Image
If you are craving for Palabok and Tokwa't Baboy, the best place to go to is Tita Lulu's.  They serve delicious Palabok at Tita Lulu's (Located in front of PureGold Agora, inside the big parking lot). Always say you want the thin noodles when you order Palabok as it is better. The Tokwa't Baboy is equally delicious. Never forget to buy the palabok and tokwa't baboy together as they complement each other.
