Pancake House

To my loyal subjects and readers.. I thank thee who not only read this blog but also share my interests in writing. (argghh.. how formal of me). Anyways!! hello again.. I know it's been a while not updating my blog but not to worry I always check on my emails and find it very honoring and amazing it is to know how all of you loves my blog. (even if it makes no sense..! haha!) 

I posted these pictures for a while now and haven't told you guys how our encounter was. So here it goes; 
Me and My sister, Jheii wanted to try out Pancake House, specially when we were craving for Pancakes for a long time. 

It was my sister's lunch break so we had to meet her in the mall.We went straight to Pancake House. There were a few customers dining already..unfortunately we were no assistance to anyone. But not to worry, we were able to find seats for ourselves. A waitress came over to give us the menu and she was polite enough to smile. They were dressed appropriately and they were neatly charming. There was a manager, who was looking at us but never did came near us. It was ok.

A former classmate of mine works in that branch it was very nice to see an old friend again. Grace. She's very helpful and even if they had a lot of customers by then she was able to check on us from time to time.. How very kind.. (Hoorahhh to the Philwomenians again!)

The place was clean but it was a small store. They kept the place nice and neat. The tables and chairs were arranged properly but there was a lot of things going on the table. There were a lot of table accessories such as the card menu displays (huge ones) which gives small space for the plates and glasses to be served. 

***Just a suggestion, no matter how big or small the sponsor of your restaurant has, like coca cola or pepsi or whatever, there's no need to put that card display on the table because we are not after that... Plus enough space for the plates to be put at. We are after the food! Well that's my stomach talking.. haha!*** 

i noticed that there were posters of different movies which makes it feel at home, and i like the natural brown and orange color which makes it more welcoming.. the simpler the better! 

This is my mom with my sister who is spending time to read the menu...
Mango Milk Shake - is my sisters' choice of beverage because they are mango lovers, but this was not their favorite, it was too sweet and the mango flavor was not really there.



Fiesta Taco Salad - P 203.00 - this is a worthy price for a worthy Salad - this was my mom's pick and when we ordered it was one of their specialties.. Mother knows best! yep.. they do! although the description tells that the dish had roasted chicken bits and a freshly friend tacos, I did not felt that. but all of the ingredients were complete, there was kidney beans, nachos that was not really a nachos but more likely a "Chippy" Chips, mixed greens and of course the cheddar cheese which is more likely an eden cheese. But all in all it tasted FANTASTIC! I loved it! 


Seafood Gambero - P250.00 - This had mussle and shrimp, a tomato based sauce seasoned with garlic, oregano and basil. Parsley for garnish and Parmesan. It was good. 



Tenderloin Steaks - P350.00++ - My brother and my sister had this and It wasn't the best steak. From my recent blogs, my brother knows a best steak and since they came home from Libya, we have gone far and wide to search for the best of the best steak in town, one that my brother would have to eat everyday whatever it takes! These steaks on the other hand was just another one of those that didn't beat the steak he loves so much in Libya. We asked for a medium rare but unfortunately it was rare! I know in the picture it looks hmmm different but in the inside it wasn't it was really rare. This is a no go!


Carbonara P226.00 - This is so far the best Carbonara I've ever tasted, I have to admit next to sister Ate Michelle, this is by far the best carbonara, the pasta was cooked perfectly, the sauce was hot and saucy and juicy and the chicken and the mushroom was perfectly seasoned with garlic and nutmeg and ofcourse white and black pepper mixed,and don't me started on the cheese!!! I love the cheese, mozzarella and parmesan mixed, like fireworks in your mouth! TWO THUMBS UP! I vow to the cook who made it! Very well done! GUYS YOU HAVE GOT TO TRY THIS! I promise you, it won't be a disappointment!

these are my siblings sharing their dishes to one another, and asking how does it tastes and etc..


and last but certainly not the least... Waffles - P300.00++ - this is a combination order, with chicken fingers and salad.this was amazing.. I forgot what it's called, but trust me when i say it's one of the best in pancake house. you have to ask for it because sometimes they don't have it and it depends on what time..so ask for the waffles that have chicken fingers..! 



Over all it was ok. If you're looking for a relaxed and on the budget restaurants this is the place to go.. You can bring a long friends and family. Everyone is welcome here.

So here it is!


Eat HAPPY Everyone!!

GIMIKAINAN SESSIONS 4: Abella's Residence in Binangonan Rizal


          My family loves grilled dishes.
We started grilling when were very little. My dad would build an improvised griller in Libya and we’d all take a stick and grill any meat that my mom prepared. And it went on until my dad got a really nice job and we bought our very own big grilling equipment. When we went here in the Philippines it’s not really advisable especially when you live in a condo to have a charcoal grilled meat. Not unless you have your own house and a yard to do the grilling. So my mom and dad bought a house in Binangonan, Rizal, and it’s a beautiful house.
The griller that we have right now is actually just a cheap one. We had to buy a cheap one because we were hosting a party one day that we really didn’t have any time to buy the really expensive one the one that works on gas. But we were lucky to buy this one because it’s been ok for the past 6 months. I, together with my best friend Jessica bought this for P3000.00++ in SM MOA and I just want to share a brief story about it. When I saw this griller, I figured it could be disassembled and if we buy it, it wouldn’t be hard to carry it and load it in a trunk. Unfortunately, we thought wrong, it can’t be disassembled and you have to carry the whole thing. You know how MOA is. It’s big and the taxi bay is way too far from the department store. We walked a long way and trying hard to take care of the griller since it’s cheap and it might break easily. I was sweating really bad, kept on complaining why I bought such a thing. But eventually we took a cab, wrap the whole thing with an improvised rope. An etc. it was really bad. Yeah that’s the story of our mighty griller. Hahaha!
So what do we have?


my sister jheii and my dearest brother posing for the camera and enjoying his doritos chips and C2.. no alcohol...
 My dad and my sisters - Rosalie , Liit and Jheii


Made some Tacos - Mom's Request..- basically I just grilled/toasted the taco shells, then filling; ground pork, ranch dressing, onion and ice berg lettuce, bell pepper grilled, tomatoes grilled and cheese. Actually we just used the ones that were available in the house. But you can use ground beef, the for the dressing you can mix cream cheese with dried herbs then sour cream. I grilled the bell peppers because I like the smokey flavor and so as with the tomatoes. 

 So on the grill - we have Hotdogs, Chicken and pork. Usually we do our own version of marinating sauce but since we have those leftovers from last week that we bought at supermarkets. We just finish them off. Maybe next time I can share some ingredients on how we do our marinating sauce.

 The skewered bbq costs P30.00++ each stick in the meat section in your nearest supermarkets. It's actually pork. They also have chicken so you can try that. 
 Tender Juicy hot dogs. We usually buy the Jumbo sized ones. Its bigger and it takes forever to finish. HAHA!
 We actually wanted the inasal flavored ones. but since we saw that there were a lot of garlic cloves in it, we just chose the bbq flavor ones which costs P55.00 each leg part. Its actually affordable since it's really huge. 
 My dad doing his thing with those deliciousness... hahaha! 

 YUP! I'm the FAT GIRL! hahahaha! this is me! hahaha! YUMMY!!! 
 and these my lovely readers and viewers are the good companions... San Miguel Light and Tanduay Ice.  

and my personal favorite Kahlua on the rocks with cherry... - yep...!!! 

hahaha yes.. they were drunk.. hahahaha!



Anyways.. don't try this at home specially if you are not guided by parents or someone older than you are. This doesn't happen everyday.. well.. probably with them.. hahaha! ssshhhh... But this is our family... We have fun, we eat, we are a family... I hope you guys enjoy reading this blog.. You can always have your own gimikainan sessions at home.. especially with your love ones.. Thank you! and let me know if you guys have any Gimikainan Sessions like this at home...
