Food Trip Tayo!

• Sango’s Yakiniku Burger

  07Feb
  Categories: Asian Food, Japanese Food, Snacks Comments: 1

  

  Sango! the Burger Master has been around for a while but I only got to try it the other day.  Foodies have been practically raving about their burgers, especially the bestsellers Master burger and the Yakiniku burger.  Yesterday, I was able to try the Yakiniku burger.  Not my favorite, just yet, but it’s a novelty.

  

  Actually I got the one which comes as a combo meal (with regular fries and a drink.  I got a strawberry soda.  The meal costs P215).  It certainly is weird eating a burger that is made of sticky rice.  But I guess, since we’re rice-eating people, this shouldn’t be a farfetched idea.  Messy to eat, though.  But the beef is delicious and tender, perfectly matched by the sweet sauce.  The sticky rice bun is actually a bit crunchy in the outside.  The fear of having the bun fall of in pieces when I held it was never realized.  The fries ain’t that spectacular, though.  But I kinda like the soda.

  I can’t wait to go back to try the other burgers.  I should have a taste of that Master burger!

  My rating:

• Sizzle It Your Way at Pepper Lunch

  Call me a late bloomer, but it really took me quite a while before I could try out Pepper Lunch.  Heard a lot of friends and bloggers raving about the resto, so the name definitely went to my list of restos to visit.  And I finally got the chance to have a taste of what it has to offer a few weeks ago (yes, this is rather a late post.  My Apologies) when I went to the Shangri-La mall branch.

  

  Chicken Pepper rice (P235 with drinks and rice, plus P48 if you want more chicken strips)

  I got chicken pepper rice, because, obviously I like chicken more than beef hehe.  And, really, the smell of garlic, butter, pepper, and the teriyaki sauce is enough to make my mouth water.  But again, I’ve got to hold back myself because I still have to cook this meal!  Yup, that’s the novelty of it: sizzle it your way.  The meal comes with a hot plate and you can overcook or mildly cook the meat, whichever you want.  

  What I did was to brown the chicken meat in the butter and then, mix it in with the rice and the corn, throwing in a lot of teriyaki and sizzling steak sauce.  And more pepper!

  

  I remember that my dad got “turned off” because of the cooking part; he certainly is a person who wants to be pacified right away.  But all the waiting paid off, he said afterwards.  The teriyaki pepper chicken tasted great!

  Another thing I like about Pepper lunch is that it provides free wifi and lots of power outlets for its clients!

  

  Yay for those who always like to be connected to the Internet with their lappies and handhelds!  The password is actually just “pepperlunch”.  I just don’t know if it’s the same password in the other branches.

  So, definitely I’d give this Pepper Lunch dish and Pepper Lunch a rating of:

  

  And definitely, definitely I’m goin’ to come back to try the other dishes!

• Seafood Fest at Buma Restaurant, Tiendesitas

  I’m not much of a fish and seafood fan (except for my salmon and my squid dishes) so I wasn’t really excited to eat at a seafood restaurant.  However, I really can’t refuse somebody’s treat to eat out at a seafood resto, no?  Well, no regrets actually, dining at Buma Seafood Restaurant at Tiendesitas.  Place might be a bit darn expensive (one might have to spend P400 or more, and need companions because most are set meals) but well worth it.  Also, I like the experience of picking the food fresh and choosing the way you want it cooked.

  Feast your eyes on these:

  

  Mostly are fish but there are non-scaly meat too!

  

  Who’s going to eat who?
