We made a reservation for 10 people. We got there at 6 p.m. We waited for so long to be seated, but it was impossible. There were a lot of people waiting. It was so crowded, and there were no tables at all. My sister bought a book just to have a photo with Mr. David Pomeranz. She got her wish. Whoever is the event coordinator, do better next time.
The food is incredible, taste just like how my auntie and my lola makes it. The service is awesome, they have a good crew. The restaurant looks splendid, and the do live music. Love it here.
Last night, my partner and I went out to eat and decided to try a dish called dinakdakan. However, we were surprised to find that it was made with liempo (pork belly), which was unexpected. While the cream or sauce in the dinakdakan was actually quite good, this was the first time I’ve ever encountered a version of it that used liempo as the main meat. It didn’t really taste like the traditional dinakdakan I know. I also ordered chicken tinola, but unfortunately, it didn’t taste good at all. It was very different from the usual tinola I’m used to, and I was honestly disappointed with it. The only dish I truly enjoyed that night was the beef caldereta—that one was flavorful and cooked just right. Even the rice they served was hard and not properly cooked, which made the meal less enjoyable. To make things worse, the music at the place was extremely loud—it felt like my eardrums were about to burst. It was hard to enjoy the food and have a conversation because of the noise. Overall, it wasn’t the best dining experience, but at least the caldereta saved the night a little.
