A couple of days ago, I went back to my alma mater, UST, to get some documents and for a health consult. And definitely, I’ve been away from it for a long time as I noticed a lot of changes: a relocated jeepney terminal, new restaurants and apartments, a new bookshop, and lots of internet hubs. But, of course, there are still those which haven’t changed. And so, I’ve decided to visit some of those which reminded me of my old med school days. One of these places is S.R. Thai Cuisine, located in one of the streets in Dapitan.
S.R. Thai has been one of our sources of daily nutrition as medical clerks, mainly because it was near the hospital and also it can satisfy a really hungry clerk, having a huge serving per meal. Also, it’s quite comfortable to eat there because of airconditioning, something that a haggard clerk would truly appreciate.
And so, I went down memory lane and reminisce my S.R. Thai experience.

Beef Fried Rice (P65 now, but it used to be P55)
This is definitely one of my favorites. One can order a spicier version of this dish, but I like it better when I’m the one putting the sweet chili oil, that is made available in the condiments placed on each table. This dish, plus a bottle of C2 and glasses of water, and I’m good to go. You may have noticed that it’s a huge serving of rice, but any hungry clerk can easily devour this.
And I think it still tasted the same. Not quite extraordinary, but I love the chili sauce. And it’s best to squeeze the calamansi over the beef. Yum, yum, yum!
