Jonga II

Time for a treat! Off to Jonga we go again! They always serve us cold noodles before the food comes!

The last time we went we were served 16 panch'an, this time? 18! Can you believe it? 18 panch'an! We're soooo... lucky!

Grilled Mackerel, we had too much meat over the holidays, so we figure we should eat some fish instead, this grilled Mackerel is really yummy! The meat is firm and thick and crisp on the outside... *sllrrpp*

Spicy tofu kimchee soup

Beef Cold Noodle

Tempted? Enticed? Come and join me the next round! :)

Jong Ga!

I just can't help it, Korean food still remains as my favourite comfort food away from home. The panch'an - 16 of them! I thought being served 12 was good enough but it kept coming until the table is full of the little dishes!! Not only they served one of the best panch'an I've ever had, they also serve appetizer - cold noodle in kimchi soup. We had the lunch special - grilled pork marinated in the house specialty sauce together with tofu soup and spicy cold buckwheat noodle. 

Every time I had a really great Korean meal, I get to be introduced to another one that is better and this meal is really really good, I felt so 'touched' while eating it. Have you ever had a meal that makes you wanna cry? This one almost did and the lunch came up to only $28. Considered decent for all these food for 2 don't you think so?

Around Manila and All About Food!

On the first day  we arrived in Manila, we went to Senju for a 'light meal', wah...the Japanese meal is so amazingly good and for the meal set it's so worth it. As usual, I was too busy eating and forgot to take all the photos. My bad.

So what is interesting in Manila is the public transportation.

Jeepneys are so common here and each of them is uniquely designed. Of course, there's also the taxis, the lrts, the buses and etc. But jeepneys seem to be the most popular transportation ever.

And in Manila, there's nothing much you can do, it's mostly mall hopping. This is Greenbelt, a high end shopping mall with 5 buildings surrounding a garden with a chapel in the middle.

These lampshades are made of sea shells, something uniquely Philippine.

Eating at Greenbelt can be quite expensive but the food is REALLY good. Haha... sorry. It's all about food, I know, I can't help it. :) We went to a Thai restaurant called People's Palace.

This is a Thai salad with Roast Pork! 

Wah....Philipine is a pork nation I must say! 

Yumm.. it sure is good!

Fish in red curry sauce.

Chicken in green curry sauce.

Pineapple mint yogurt and lemon grass ginger juice.

Then of course, there's always my comfort food! 

KOREAN! KIMCHI!

The Crowne Plaza bakery has a discount of 50% off on all pastries at 7pm, how can I miss this delightful deal right?

Muahahahahaaa.....

So we have J-co Donuts, Big Apple Donuts, Missy Donuts, Dunkin Donuts, but we don't have Krispy Kreme! These are the few Krispy Kreme Valentine's Day special donuts. Extremely sweet but I couldn't resist and still wanna try it. 

So what's your plan for Valentine's Day? :)
