BON CHON -- KOREAN FAST FOOD CHICKEN

Bon chon! Yiipppeeee!

Nothing is much interesting in Bon Chon. 

Here in the Philippines, Bon Chon is one of the best competitor of Jollibee and McDonald's with its flavorful Korean fried Chicken specialty.

They got into the Filipino taste with no much advertising until people introduced it to people and they become into the Pinoy's top 10. 

I knew Bon Chon way back 2011, and almost after 3 years, I can say that they really improved! 

which, become my favorite fast food after McDonalds. 

I am just missing their first chicken size, hehe 

Well afterall, I am thanking this Bon Chon for introducing me the Korean taste of Chicken. 

For other's information, Bon Chon Chicken specially the soy garlic is best when you partner with Kimchi Coleslaw.

I eat Bon Chon's Chicken with their ketchup and kimchi coleslaw. 

and now... I am craving.

FAT FRANKS - When In Paranaque

FAT FRANKS -

Fat Frank's is one of the reason why I am thankful for being a resident of Better Living.

The moment I saw their logo and banner I already knew that something quality store will born here and...

I am pretty sure that regarding this matter my instinct would not fail me.

I started blogging last 2014 and this is one of my target restaurant to try because Fat Frank is only located in Better Living - easy to visit. 

This is their first branch and I don't know where will be their next.

The theme of the place really allured me knowing its american concept is a risky concept  business for a place which is not known like Better Living.

however, Fat Frank's made it possible.

 lots of BLS residents support and share their feedbacks in BLS group so many people got the eager to try - that is WORD OF MOUTH Marketing.

I would'nt blame them for being proud,taking selfies and sharing their good feeback in Facebook cause its really Quality.

My first bite here is their Chicken fingers with potato fries under their platters to share 

offers in their menu, then the Salisbury and Potterhouse.. 

ALL  ARE GOOD!

SUGGEST FAT FRANK's .

Even foods are bit Pricey and honestly I am not used to spend P200 and up in a surprise meal I still recommend here especially when you already here in Better Living and craving for an american taste.

I ate here with a voucher from Groupon with me. almost 50% discount so I ordered their portter house @ 240 grams, you can have it with  mashed potato or white rice,  I chose rice and I am full. :))))

this is Fat Frank's Porterhouse in a plate, (you can also request to have it in sizzling plate)

its for P245

about their Salisbury which is like a burger steak of King Wan. hehe.

but its good. my friend ordered and like it. I have no degrading comments for this, just a bit pricey for my part, I rather eat their specialty steaks and shakes. hehehe

Fat Frank's Salisbury for P185

OMG this is what i really don't like to be out of order...

the LOVE at first taste..

the CHICKEN FINGERS with POTATO FRIES. 

hhhmmmm my favorite..

with the cheddar cheese sauce or whatever they called it. 

TWO THUMBS UP!

for P180 good to share for 3 pax..

hmmmmmmmmm I just love it.

Next time I'll going to order their shakes and will share again the experience to you guys!

and till I visit you again FRANK! :)

Mei Sum Chinese Restaurant - A precious along Ongpin

Along the long street of Ongpin in the city of Manila you

could find different restaurants, mostly are chinese restaurants

 no wonder the place is not so far at

Chinatown, this part of Manila is well-known in cheap selling products.

After a long walk in sta.cruz from Carriedo to Ongpin for some reasons we found this Mei Sum Chinese Restautant, this is the first busy restaurant we saw and its so pricey compared to the Resto that I am looking along Ongpin, (failed to remember the name of that resto :/)

anyway, moving forward, 

We are happy with their foods, the Chinese fried chicken and the dumplings and the fried rice!!!! 

Wew! 

So full. You can share it with 3 people so you can split the bill into 3 also. Hahaha

 

  

Once we arrived they give free tea, it was not in a tea cup but the important is the taste of the tea. I don't know but I like their tea, I can't tell if its like an authentic and original tea, it was not sweet or sour or creamy, just an ordinary tea. Like it!

Who said that in the middle of this busy street we can find a Resto that will fit our Filipino tongue , Mei Sum is one of them.

Dumplings are the best among what we ordered then the fried rice and the chicken..

The service were good in all aspects. nice,accommodating and alert.

In that very sunny afternoon, we found some old Chinese who drink beer,. In a sunny afternoon? Whaaaat? You gotta be kidding me, but yes! I think they had their 3 bottles already when we arrived.

They are happily talking and enjoying each others company while us so busy finishing our food because were so HUNGRY!!! Haha

The good thing about Mei Sum were the place were spacious and not intimidating.

I said in the first part that for me its pricey,yes. sort of. our bill was like 500 (i think) but if we ate there with barkadas shares would be lessen.

this is should you expect when you try here, the wet tissue. we didn't expect that they will give us free of this, now, I am giving you a heads - up

CHOPSTOP - New fast food that will shot.

The new candidate to my Fast food options.

Its fancy and unique signage attracts us to try at Chopstop. We tried SM  Centerpoint Branch in Sta. Mesa,

Manila while actually we already saw their branch at Makati few months before they open in Sta. Mesa.

Food really looks and tastes good, prices are reasonable and service was okay.

we ordered their Chops which comes in pork or Chicken.

Pork Barbecue Chops – P109

Pork Tonkatsu Chops  – P109

Chicken Bacon and Cheese Chops – P129

My friend was satisfied with his order Pork Barbecue Chops but me, I like the their Chicken Bacon and Cheese

Pork Barbecue Chops

Pork Tonkatsu Chops

Chicken Bacon and Cheese Chops

Chops, maybe because I am into cheese..

Also, their Cheesy Bacon fries, which is 2 thumbs up.

Also, my favorite order. Desserts!!!!  the Milkshake. 

Chopstop should give a chance to shot!

Truly Milk tea hit Manila by storm in the recent years,

 I admit that I was influenced by one of my crazy  over milk tea friend.

Tea Monkey is a tiny little shop and a bit conveniently located in Pasig City is the new addition to my milk tea favorites.

so far, The Best milk tea I ever tasted around Tiendesitas/Frontera Verde.

Located at SM Hypermarket Frontera Verde, Pasig City.

The serving was big and the service was impressive.

The quality of the tea and the milk and the cheese are

extremely AWESOME!.

YUM YUM YUM!

HIGHLY SUGGESTED BEVERAGE when you are in the area. 

or if you are planning to intentionally taste TEA MONKEY I assure you that this is worth to visit.

SUGGESTION:
