Place ★★★★

Food: ★★

Service: ★★★

Verdict: Favorite | Will Comeback | Just Okay | Never Again

What's Good:

1. Really nice place

2. Chairs really comfy

What's not so good:

1. Food is not worthy

Our Story:

We went and dine here at Kuya J twice. The first one was May 2015 and we just wonder why we haven't been back since then. And so we gave it a shot.

Staff will greet you and find you a seat when you enter. They hand out the menu and gives you a glass of water. That is a plus point.

it take some time for the order to arrive. We we're planning to have Kare-kare but its too expensive it costs around 400pesos. I dont eat kare kare so we did not push through. The food came and here's what we have to say:

Pork BBQ

My photo looks super good and seems like the food is so delish. But its a very small serving of 3pcs port bbq. Dissapointed in the serving size. The taste, well very ordinary. There's more worthy pork bbq out there.

Crispy Shrimp

For its price its very disappointing to me. I love shrimps and this one is just a failure. Not good. Not worth it. In every restaurant I always order shrimp and this is the first one that failed me. The size, the flavor, the.. no.

Sizzling Sisig w/ Egg

Again my photo looks good and delish. But the title doesn't fit - let me change it. This is the Kuya J's not-Sizzling Sisig w/ raw Egg. And the serving is so small. I saw it in the internet and I was served in a rectangular plate which I believe for marketing and advertising purpose only. The taste just fine.

And we asked the waiter for a soy sauce. And gave us this.

Wow. Presentation-much.

Leche Flan

Small but its fine. Taste super good just like any other leche flan :) made me happy. It comes with a calamansi but I dont want it.

Pineapple Juice

I like it. Its not an ordinary in-can pineapple juice :)

So that's it. Now I know why after a year we haven't been visiting this place. And we wont again - well if you disagree, its ok - we have different tastes.

What's Good:

1. Really nice place
2. Chairs really comfy

What's not so good:

1. Self Service

Our Story:

This is a new place to eat in New Point - a newly opened mall in Angeles City.

Place looks really nice. They greet you when you enter and you are free to find yourselves a seat. They have an open kitchen area, where you can see the chefs cooking your meals.

Really nice place but one thing is lacking.. and that is because it is a Self Service kind. You fall in line in the cashier area and state your order then wait for your order number then be seated and chill. One more thing I notice in this place is that the menu is scattered and its a bit hard to pick an order when the meals are in front but the drinks and other stuff are nowhere to be found, because the drinks menu is poster on the right wall.

Wait for a couple of minutes and your order will arrive. We have been here 3 times now and here's our food review:

Ed's Baby Back Rib

I ordered the cheapest which worth ₱115. Its a one rib meat that comes with a rice and iced tea. I thought it could have been bigger than what they served me but o well there goes my 115pesos.. Really disappointed with the size of serving but the taste super good! very delicious indeed, very tasty, the smoked taste - very good. I am happy with this dish.

Super Smashed Burger

This one is worth ₱140. They say its their best seller so we ordered it. It comes with potato fries. Its good from the bun to the meat - really great. But for the price of 140pesos - nope, you can get a better burger somewhere with that worth.

Chicken Paella

This one is worth ₱140. Very disappointing. The serving size, the taste, the chicken, the plating. Very bad. They serve this in a small fancy plate and you got to be really careful in eating if you dont want to spill the food. The chicken - it looks big but its not, its empty in the center. The rice is not good. The first worst paella we had.

Checken Peri Peri

This one is worth ₱140. Another disappointment, Serving is big and nice. But this is supposed to be the best they have. Its the Flame grilled Peri Peri Chicken. It doesn't taste like it was grilled its not even hot when it was served. I think this one is like "ready na - ininit lang". Not good. I dont know what peri peri is and what's so special with it but this one it taste like an indian food but not too strong - Im not a fan of indian food. As I was eating this I looked at the baby back rib and said "I should have picked you, so not happy with peri peri"

Sweet Potato Fries

This one is worth ₱60. I am a fan of sweet potatoes. I love it. And this one is a favorite. It was served hot. It tastes salty and sweet. Salty due to the salt they sprinkled on it and sweet because that's the nature of this food. Serving size is just fine.

Frosty Cookies and Cream

This one is worth ₱90. Really good too. Very Cookies and Cream! And the price is decent.

Cooler Drink: Milo

This one is worth ₱70. Variaty of flavors to choose from but we picked milo - i dont know why. The presentation is good as it is placed in a cute mason jar.
A very ordinary iced milo that you can do it your self for a cheaper price.

Chocolate Shake

This one is worth ₱75. As usual, very ordinary chocolate shake, nothing special but still i like it.

And that is our experienced. A 50-50, half great and half disappointing experienced. We were dissapointed that we were served with these food without straws and spoon and forks. We were like "yosh! Itadakimasu!" then we realized we got no spoon and fork. Yup, its a self service. And the straw... ow the straw.. A very cute red swirl paper straw. A straw that can only last for couple of minutes and then get crippled and useless.

I might comeback for the ribs :) but other than that nope.

Place ★★★★★

Food: ★★★★

Service: ★★★★★

Verdict: Favorite | Will Comeback | Just Okay | Never Again

What's Good:

1. Really nice place
2. Free Wifi
3. Not expensive food trip

What's not so good:

1. Loud Costumers
2. Bit Hot
3. Sometimes there are mosquitos

Our Story:

This is Mashitta. A kore-korean diner. Mashitta means delicious in korean.
We are "suki" at this place. We even go here every night and order the same meal each night. The staff here knows us by face and memorize our order.

I can no longer remember the first day we went here. But it made us comeback every night. The diner looks clean. The food is cheap but decent. The staff our friendly. There is free wifi.

As you enter no one greets you. There is a counter where you will order the food. Food ranges from ₱50 to ₱200. They offer iced tea for only ₱10. Its a bit hot even tho they got aircon around. Most of the costumers are students from Holy Angel University and most of them are loud and super annoying! There is a tv playing the music videos of Niki Minaj. Yup! We stay here from 7pm to 9pm and niki minaj videos keeps playing all the time every night.

They have seaweed chips and korean ice creams. They also have chocolate milkshake for ₱50. They got chocolate, strawberry, vanilla and taro flavors for milkshake.

Choco MilkShake

Iced Tea

Korean Ice Cream

Most of the time we go here because of the wifi since we play online games and we got a game event that will be finished soon. Or sometimes we just dont have money. There was a time that we cannot connect to the wifi because there were many people using it, we then asked the staff to reset the wifi haha we also sometimes eat at other diner but still visit this place just to connect to the wifi in exchange of buying an ice cream or a 10peso iced tea. There was also a time where we do not have enough money and we run out of 10pesos for the drink. The staff said we can have it for free and pay it on our next visit but we didn't took it.

Here are some of the food we had on this diner.

Ramyun - ₱79

Jjampong Ramyun - ₱129

Mild Ramyun - ₱109

They got varieties of Ramyun. They have a promo, pay only ₱79 for the Ramyun which original price is ₱99. Nothing special same same with other ramyuns :) The Mild Ramyun is nothing special looks the same with the other Ramyun only its "mild" meaning not so spicy (ramyun was never spicy based on my exp). The Jjampong Ramyun is like a seafood ramyun it has some pieces of shrimps and squids.

Spam Rice - ₱89

Jeyuk Fried Rice - ₱99

Burger Patty - ₱40

Spam Rice - A budget meal for students and people who are in tight budget with their money or it is also perfect for someone who really love spam just like my mewtut. He really likes this one :)

Jeyuk Fried Rice - Another fave of mewmew, nothing special its just a fried rice topped with fried egg and sided with some veggies. Best when partnered with a burger patty.

Burger Patty - Rich in bbq sauce and it is a full packed meat. Its a home made patty.

OmuKatzu - ₱189

Chicken Teriyaki - ₱119

Double Burger - ₱189

OmuKatsu - is one of their Hot Plate Special Meat. It has some veggies, an omelet rice, a shrimp tempura and slices of pork katsudon in a very weird sauce - that i dont like. The dish is ok but not a favorite.

Chicken Teriyaki - Best ever teriyaki so far! Im not sure if its an authentic teriyaki but its the best! My favorite!

Double Burger - Mew's favorite. Has a shrimp Tempura, 2 meaty bugger patty and a Jeyuk Fried rice topped with a fried egg. Really good.

Spicy Pork - ₱119

Shrimp Fry - ₱40

California Roll - ₱109

Spicy Pork - Super spicy!!! In a very very bad way. The spiciness runs through the nose like a killer wasabi.

Shrimp Fry - You can order a single tempura for 40 pesos. A Tempura Roll is worth 129. This is just ok, too much crumbs and a very skinny shrimp inside.

California Rolls - I dont eat this, but mew does. He said its the best! He is so happy while he eats 8 rolls.

And that's it! Really like this place and enjoyed every food! Almost finished the menu :) A favorite for sure!

And they also got this promo card that gives you a sticker if you order an item worth 80++ and on the 10th sticker you will receive a free meal voucher worth 150. I got my 5th card now hahaha.

Coco Sorbetero Ice Cream

10:34:00 PM

Budget for this Food Trip:

7 scoops in cup: ₱65

7 scoops in shell: ₱85
4 scoops in cup: 50

Food Trip Review:

Food: ★★★★

Service: ★★★★

Verdict: Favorite | Will Comeback | Just Okay | Never Again

What's Good:

1. Ice Cream!

What's not so good:

1. Sometimes there were limited flavors to choose from

Our Story:

Here is a coco sorbetero, a unique way of presenting an ice cream in the market. You can choose form the varieties of ice cream flavors available and it will be placed in a coconut shell and topped with pieces of coconut meat.

It is our first time to try it so we really don't know what to expect and if we'll enjoy it.. lets find out!

We had the 7 scoop in a cup because there were no available shell that day. They got 8 available flavors. I picked one of each except for the vanilla flavor. I think vanilla is boring and its just milk so I don't bother picking it in any ice cream ever.

Im really not sure how to describe each flavor like I might just say supper good, really great, favorite, nice, sweet to each flavor so I thought of giving it a star to rate how great it is.

And to help me decide and do the food taste test here is my super cool dessert spoon that I've stolen from one fast food chain :) shhh....

Strawberry ★★★★★- super good, an instant favorite for sure. really sweet, it doesn't taste much like a strawberry but still super good. Mew said "ola baguio" he thinks it tastes like Baguio's freshly picked strawberries.

Chocolate ★★★- as always, a fave! really good. Very tasty. Mew said nothing special just the same old good chocolate flavor

Buko pandan ★★★★- a fave too. Mew was speechless with the goodness of this one

Ube ★★★★★ - very ube! 5 star for this! Mew forgotten who I am because its really good!

Mais ★★ - very mais! The corn flavor and the texture. Its like the corn was crashed and froze and I dont like it. I like corn but not in ice cream.

Keso ★ - disappointing. I thought it will be cheesy but its not. No cheese flavor in it. I think its butter like the mantikilya flavor. eeelk!

Avocado ★ - never ate avocado before and will forever wont try it. Mew said he regret choosing this flavor, not because its a worst ice cream but because its avocado. well you might enjoy it but we just dont.

And that's it! Most of the flavors are ordinary yet satisfying but the one flavor I really enjoyed was the Ube. To sum it up I enjoyed it, I ate it with joy and happiness, I loved the combination of ice cream and coconut meat super nice. To describe my happiness, well for a minute it was like a moment were I dont give a fuck if diabetes strikes me. I can die happy. lol just an OA expression.

Weeks later... We bought it again but this time the coconut shell is available. However the ice cream were limited and i dont get why. There were only 4 flavors available. Mais, stawberry, Chocolate and 1 last scoop of Ube.

I had 1 scoop of ube, 2 of chocolate and 3 of strawberry, 1 mais. Not so happy with the limited flavors. But the coconut meat which came from its own shell is better than the sachet-coconut meat.

Extra: The Story of my super cool dessert spoon

We were eating in a fast food chain around somewhere. And they have no available spoons not even plastic/disposable spoon. Instead, they gave us a dessert spoon but that's ok. After a couple of minutes they gave us a dinning spoon.

I fell in love with this cute spoon so I decided to steal it but there was a CCTV right in front of me and I feel like its judging me hahaha. After a while I made my decision and I slowly put it in my bag and left.

This is not my hobby or my doing but... o well..
