When I am happy with what I am eating, my tail(bone) wiggles!
I am not a food critique, I believe that taste in food is highly subjective, and I just want to share mine. Ü

Texas Joe's House of Ribs, Subic




The Bochog surfers went to Texas Joes on November 10, 2013.









Al fresco.



Inside.


On the left.



Jen and Drew raved about their ribs. So that's what we came here for. 


 But hard headed me and Rap, ordered another thing.
Spare Ribs Platter Medium P549



Rap's Spare Ribs Platter.

Because we thought more bones, the tenderer the meat is.
 We were wrong.


Jen and Drew ordered the same thing.
 Baby Back Ribs Half Rack P499 


Because I was afraid to ask Drew, I tasted Jen's.
ღ Jen's Baby back ribs.
Now that one is tender.


 You can also choose your sauce.
 I prefer the Habanero hot.

Twist Comfort food + Difference, Scout Madriñan

Above photo taken from Twist's Twitter.


Darling and I tried Twist on November 6, 2013.



Queue because of Kris Aquino's segment on this.



As we enetered.



On the left.



On the right.



Middle.



Side window of their kitchen.



Kitchen.



Our seat.


 The placemats. 


We ordered this.
 
Smoked Salmon P295 
brioche, caviar, truffle fries


And this. 
Shepherd's Pie P395 
beef blade, mushrooms, chorizo, sherry, truffle mashed potato


It came with this salad.


Inside the Shepherd's Pie. 
I really liked the mashed potatoes and cheese.
And this wasn't even their bestseller.


The beef tasted ordinary but tender.


 Our bill came in this.

My tail did not wiggle but the food was good. 
I would probably be back to try other dishes.

SAJE Coffee, Tea & Me, Scout Madriñan

Above photo taken from their Facebook page

My friend and I tried Saje Coffee, Tea & Me on November 5, 2013. 


It's located inside this building.


Just across Il Terrazzo.
[view from Il Terrazzo]



Cute coffee cup chairs.


From the door.


On the left.


Other seats without the people.
The owners of these stuff went outside for a smoke I think.


My friend and I shared these..
ღ Quartermore Angus Burger P195


Tasty and juicy. Not dry at all. 
And it didn't have those fatty hard parts burgers usually have.


It also came with fries.
This looks better than it tastes.


They also have homemade ice cream
Apple Crumble P115


It wasn't bad. But I think it's too pricey for the size.

Old Penang, Resorts World Manila Ω




Mumsy wanted to eat at Old Penang on November 3, 2013.


Because she was craving for their Nasi Lemak.


Unfortunately, they were not available that day. =( 


So we got these instead. 
Famous Penang Char Kway Teow P280
Flat white rice noodles with prawn, fish cake, bean sprout, 
pork fat, kut chat and egg



It lacked flavor for me, I still like this better.


Three Cup Chicken in Claypot P300 


chicken, sliced ginger, garlic, basil leaves

I expected this to be as tasty when I tried a Taiwanese street food place.
I guess the ingredients are different in Old Penang.


Taste lies in the mouth of the beholder.

Disclaimer: I don't think that this establishment serves bad food, 
their dishes just did not make my tail wiggle.
