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

Mamou Too, Rockwell Ω

Ghost Month is No Wiggle Ω month for whenpigswiggle.blogspot.com
Above photo taken from Mamou's Facebook page

I tried Mamou's second branch, Mamou Too, last October 28, 2012.
Angle from where I was seated.

Their placemat article says that we should order steak.
 

 So we did.
 
Wawa's Prime Rib P1,350
Slow roasted bone-in, Prime Rib / Yorkshire pudding

My friend wanted to get the 400gms instead of the 250gms (P980)
Starving much?
 I didn't want to delay eating just so I could take pictures 
so I just took them while my friend attacked the food.

This is served with 2 choices of sides and we chose
creamed spinach and baked mashed potatoes.

We also ordered another dish in case the prime rib was not enough.
Baked White Fish P295
capers, white wine, white / red buttered parsley rice

 The manager(?) entertained us for a long time.
I was shy to continue eating while she and my friend talked about hi-tech computer stuff
so invited her to sit with us instead, but she declined.

Cue Modern Barbecue, BHS Taguig Ω

Ghost Month is No Wiggle Ω month for whenpigswiggle.blogspot.com
B-crew had dinner at Cue Modern Barbecue last October 2012

Free popcorn!

The B-crew:
Kidding! But close enough. Hihi.

I only got to take a picture of what I ordered..
King Henry-cut Pork Chop P625

Close-up on the mashed potato:

on the meat:


and on the fat:
I honestly wanted to devour this but my friends stopped me.
I like fats. In meat. Not in my body.

Spicy Fried Wings P355

I prefer this dish than the one beside it, Fried Buttermilk Wings P355. 
That was too sweet.

 Know your pig.
Test later.

Ramen Bar, Robinsons Magnolia Ω

Ghost Month is No Wiggle Ω month for whenpigswiggle.blogspot.com
 
August 17, 2012
Puti and I went to Hot Nails to get our nails done for our Boracay trip.
We decided to cross the street to Robinsons Magnolia for dinner where M was waiting.

 I've heard a lot of raves for this place.


I don't get why people are so into these kinds of ramen.
I'm happy with instant noodles, Koka to be specific.
 
Super Chasyu Ramen P380
Puti and M had this split for the 2 of them.

 And I had to finish this all by myself.
R.B.S. #1
Soy Infused Tonkotsu Ramen topped with tamago, naruto, nori, negi, chasyu and kakuni

I think I prefer a thinner kind of ramen noodles.

 What I didn't like about the experience was 
I got a splinter from removing the plastic of the chopsticks!
 
 M and Puti helping me get the splinter out.
It didn't work. 
We had to buy a tweezer.

Cookbook Kitchen, Eastwood Ω

Ghost Month is No Wiggle Ω month for whenpigswiggle.blogspot.com

Above photo taken from Cookbook Kitchen website
I tried Cookbook Kitchen in Eastwood last July 24, 2012 with some friends.

Of course I had to try this first.
 Cream of Squash P150
Not my type.

 Parmesan Herbed Fries P120
I think this was a rip-off. Look at the quantity!

Parmesan Crusted White Fish P320
Their bestseller. It was ok, it just didn't make my tail wiggle.

 
Onion-glazed Twin Chops P300
This was not that bad actually.

We also got to experience a candle-lit dinner 
because the electricity of 1880 building was out.

But the waiters were kind enough to inform us before it went out 
and also prepared the candles.

2nd's, Bonifacio High Street Ω

Ghost Month is No Wiggle Ω month for whenpigswiggle.blogspot.com


The Bochogs celebrated Jakjak's promotion as a 2nd LOM 
on the 2nd of December of 2012 at 2nd's. ;)

I reserved us a table because last time I was supposed to try 2nd's it was full. 
I just wanted to make sure.

First up: free appetizer.

I read a lot of raves for this place but nothing made my tail wiggle 
and I think I tried enough to give it a fighting chance..
Truffled Three Cheese Mac P445 
Lamb Shepherd's Pie P485
Beef Rib Adobo P565
Red Horse Fish and Chips P415
Three Little Pigs Kawali P535
Shoreside Thai Red Curry P375
Summer Grilled Pork Chop P495

Everybody shared their orders with everybody.
I guess I have a different taste preference from those who raved about this place.
