El Chupacabra for damn good Mexican food

Once upon a time when there weren’t any ramen restaurants yet in malls and the food choices were very limited, we were satisfied to stuff ourselves with Mexican food from Mexicali. Now that the food scene has something for everyone, we still come back for that familiar taste of Mexican food, comfort food bursting with flavors, pass the garlic sauce pls!

But this post isn’t about Mexicali, but of its sibling, the famous El Chupacabra.

Kimono Ken

While at SM The Block, we decided to have dinner except at Mexicali. I told Jeff our faces are already familiar there and they know our orders even before reaching the counters, haha. So we searched for our next candidate resto, we saw Kimono Ken, it’s pretty packed so the food must be good. I got overwhelmed with their menu because of the variety of choices, from the sushi, sashimi, maki, chicken/pork/beef, and ramen.

I settled for Kimono Roll, it has mango, spicy tuna and tempura.

Happy birthday Daddy!

Happy birthday to the coolest daddy-to-be!

Jeff at Crown Regency Skywalk

We kept bracing ourselves that the little princess might come out so that they’ll have the same birthday since I’m already 34 weeks today. We just had a simple lunch at Mexicali in Mall of Asia with her sister after sending my aunt to the airport. He said it doesn’t feel like his birthday because he doesn’t want to think about his age. Age is but a number I guess…

I’ve been asking him what he wanted for his birthday and he showed me his Amazon wishlist (prepared!). But we’re gonna wait for the discounted prices on Black Friday before the splurge.

Mexicali: Mexican food, fast!

Before we discovered Agave Mexican Cantina, when we’re craving for Mexican food, Mexicali is the place to be! For 2 years, Mexicali satisfied our hunger with their big burritos and enchiladas and kept our appetite clamor for more. We might have dined in most of their branches from Robinson’s Place Manila, SM The Block, Trinoma and SM Megamall, yeah, that’s how much we love Mexicali! The restaurant’s friendly ambiance lets you hang out for a longer time in the restaurant. You will definitely stay longer with the big servings that you’ll get, more time is needed to finish the servings.
