Book Latte

This coffee shop is one of my favorite places to study out in Iloilo. It has comfortable chairs and a setting conducive for studying. It has its own library and its own kitchen in the center of it all. When they cook, the scent of the food wafts through the place making you want to order something too. The coffee is good and the menu extensive (for a coffeshop) and not the usual.

Two thumbs up for this cafe! :)

Too salty for my taste but it is worth that artery-clogging craving.

Mhister Grill

I went there to eat after church one week ago. I ordered their Pork Liempo, which arrived after 14 minutes. But it didn't really bother me because I was studying. I was even surprised with the size! It seems like 2 x 5 x 3 inches, like one huge slab or chunk of the pig's belly.

Eating it revealed its very tender meat. It tasted like Hamonado though or Baby Back Ribs but its interior lacked any taste so I smothered it with the sauce which came with the meal. It was good nonetheless but I'm not having it again because I'm not a fan of Hamonado.

I would like to try the Fried Chicken or the Lechon Kawali next time.

Siam

My friend have been wanting to eat here for ages. We finally made it one night.

Because I am a chicken person, I ordered their Crunchy Chicken with Peanut Sauce. My other friends ordered Crispy Minced Fish with Mango Salad and Crab Fried Rice.

In fairness, service was fast. Our food arrived steaming hot after 10 minutes.

The Chicken was adequate in serving size. I like it with or without its peanut sauce.

The Crispy Fish was new to me. It tastes good as is but is even better when mized with the green mango salad that comes with it.

The Crab Fried Rice was plenty. It was neither too dry nor too wet and it was tasty. :)

My friends and I finished our meal unsatisfied so we ordered Chicken in Thai Yellow Curry because it is not a Thai Meal without curry. We also had another platter of rice but this time, we got Garlic Rice.

The Curry was plenty, tasty and spicy. I like the beans that come with it because it was crisp.

The Garlic Rice was tasty and seemed not to be made of garlic rice alone.

Good food with good company.

Hungry Ninja

One day, even when I was full from eating at Afrique's, I still went with my classmate to eat at Hungry Ninja. I had Pork Shogun and Fried Chicken.

The Pork Shogun was tender, spicy and plenty.

The Fried Chicken was plenty and cheap that we had a hard time consuming it. In fact, we were not able to consume it and brought it home instead.

I'm a little sad that they tweaked their menu to include less noodles. But still Hungry Ninja offers cheap good food. This is one of my staples.
