Kanin Club

One day, thank God, my friend introduced me to Kanin Club where we had Spicy Tahong, Crispy Dinuguan, Lemon Chicken, Tinapa Rice and Chorizo Rice.

The Spicy Tahong was not that spicy... for me, that is.

The Lemon Chicken was so-so.

But the Crispy Dinuguan is the star. I like the crispy innards smothered with dinuguan sauce. At first, I thought it wasn't crispy because it just looked like your ordinary dinuguan but when I tasted it, I got blown away. Yum yum yum.

The Tinapa Rice is the runner-up and thus worth mentioning. It was delicious.

The Chorizo Rice is bland even if it had Chinese sausage.

I will return here for all the crispy goodies in their menu as well as the Kare-kare, caldereta and adobo.

My friend really likes it here. Aside from the inverted house they are famous of, the food is delicious and eye-popping cheap.

We had their Family Platter, Sisig and Bicol Express.

The Sisig was good but again, I still like the sisig at Omps more than any other sisig.

The Bicol Express was very spicy. Yum yum yum.

The Family Platter had Grilled Pork, Pork BBQ, Grilled Squid, Steamed Okra, Steamed Kangkong, Tomatoes, Atsara, Grilled Tilapia, Steamed Shrimp, Steamed Talong and Tahong. The Grilled Squid was overdone. All the others is so-so. But it was a good feast.

I also had Fresh Lumpia because I saw the next table have one. Hihihi. Their Fresh Lumpia was not good though. The wrapper was dry and thin and the sauce was sweet like BananaCue.

Surprisingly cheap food with huge servings but not that delicious. I wonder how they make things so cheap and plenty.

The Margherita Pizza was delicious but it lacked more tomatoes and a little taste. I like the basil though but I wish they could sprinkle more.

I forgot what the other pizza is but it was so-so.

Chili's

Sorry for the 2-month hiatus. I never meant and wanted it to happen. Let me however continue my blog. :)

Mom brought a rack of ribs from Chili's one day. It had sides of fries and corn cobs.

It wasn't really special. It wasn't fall-off-the-bones and it was not tough and not tender either. I think the ribs in Bob's is more delicious.

My mother likes this so much that when she comes home from Manila, she brings boxes of it.

There's nothing special with their ensaymada though. I've had softer ensaymadas. My mom claims that what sets it apart is their cheese. My aunt says that it is just Queso De Bola.

Oh well. It is just a nice snack to munch and gobble and drown with juice. :)
