Ajisen Ramen

February 19, 2010 by Badet Siazon 28 Comments

Ajisen Ramen is one food discovery when we were in Hong Kong. The ramen and the soup was so delicious that we dreamed of going back to HK just to have another round of Hong Kong food trip. But one chilly morning a day after Christmas, we found Ajisen Ramen at the Midtown wing of Robinson’s Place Manila. The food is simply fantastic, and if we’re ever anywhere else, like the UK, we’ll be sure to give 118 118 a ring to find somewhere similar, as you just can’t go wrong with ramen. We’re not sure at first if it’s the same as the one in HK but after scanning the menu proved that they’re the same.

The Creamery, Selecta Kids Universe at Mall of Asia

February 10, 2010 by Badet Siazon 21 Comments

It was a hot Sunday afternoon and while were heading back to Caloocan from my in-laws in Las Pinas, we decided to grab shakes or anything cold at Mall of Asia. Coming from the South, we immediately caught a glimpse of The Creamery, ice cream on a scorching hot afternoon is bliss.

The Creamery is part of the Selecta Kids Universe in Mall of Asia. Kids Universe houses Cosmic Kidz, a five-story kiddie play area, largest play area in Manila as of date. Kids + playground + ice cream = A TREAT!

I prefer Selecta ice cream than other brands so I immediately looked for ice cream treats on the menu. I was torn between the Belgian Chocolate Mint and Ferrero Rocher ice cream, but the staff said that the latter is their bestseller so I ordered it.

Shomal Kebabs and Curries by Hossein, Trinoma

January 23, 2010 by Badet Siazon 13 Comments

Shomal Kebabs and Curries is the new name of Hossein’s restaurant, a restaurant that serves Halal Middle Eastern cuisine. We fancied to try this restaurant after getting used to the taste of Mister Kebab and Grilled Tomato. A little on the expensive side but upon tasting the saffron rice, I then knew the difference between eating at Shomal and the latter two. Mister Kebab and Grilled Tomato serve their kebabs with just plain rice and a small dollop of butter. At Shomal, we’re in for a treat.

Dong Bei Dumplings in Binondo

November 8, 2009 by Badet Siazon 6 Comments

I’ve been reading about Dong Bei dumplings from various bloggers since last year but every time we go to Binondo, we always ended up eating at President’s Tea House. The reason is we can’t find Dong Bei’s location from our few attempts, good thing the foodie-in-me kept on insisting to search for one of Binondo’s best kept secrets.

Dong Bei is located at 642 Yuchengco St., from Binondo Church, walk down Ongpin St. and turn left at Yuchengco St. Dong Bei is next to a dress shop and it’s nearing the dead end of the street. Although the restaurant’s facade seems uninviting and unappetizing for a Chinese restaurant for that matter, based on the raves I read, it must be worth it.

Dong Bei dumplings are made fresh everyday

My take on Jollibee’s Chicken Barbecue

October 7, 2009 by Badet Siazon 17 Comments

It’s been a while since I posted something food-related. Well, Jeff and I always settled for the usual, Mexicali and Starbucks whenever we go out so there are no food discoveries as of the moment. Oh wait, Jollibee launched their latest addition to their menu, Jollibee Chicken Barbecue, I read a lot of buzz from bloggers a few weeks back and tried this right away at the nearest Jollibee branch.

Mexicali: Mexican food, fast!

September 2, 2009 by Badet Siazon 8 Comments

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.
