Mister Kabab

I was craving for some lambchops and saw a  Mister Kabab restaursnt at Shell residence Mall of Asia.


The store opens up at 10 am and I arrived 30 minutes early. Waited at a nearby convenience store.


I am the first customer to come in. The place looks neat and spacious.


I ordered sizzling lambchops and to my disapointment it is not available.


So as an alternative I ordered the special chelo kabab @ php 300.00


Iced tea @ php 40.00

Served with rice with butter and grilled tomato. The taste is good but not that great compared to the lambchop.

Price - 6/10
Taste- 7/10

Solo Ride To Lucban Quezon

I had an upgrade of my GPS navigation and need to test it. I had to go somewhere an excuse to ride my Motorcycle again. I've been itching to go north upto baguio however due to lack of preparation and budget constraints decided to go south. So lucban bound as early as 4:00 am.

Marcos highway


My GPS 
So from Tanay Samapaloc road, paasing towns of Rizal. Going to towns of Laguna, just followed the GPS. It took me to Pagsanjan Cavinti Road. 





Arrived at Lucban at 8:30 am, still early so got time to rest a couple of minutes here.


Rizal shrine



Lucban's downtown is clean and colorful .I noticed that most of the houses are old but restored.I was starving and  need a place to eat. So I must try the pansit habhab.






Better late than never

A local said that at the side of the church is food court that sells Pansit habhab







Serving is ok for Php 10.00, kind of a bland pancit canton. Spiced vinegar is added to enhance the flavor. I was able to finish 2 servings. Funny thing is that you will not be given a fork to eat this. You do this by using the mouth to scoop the noodles.




After exploring a bit of the downtown, I look for a place to eat lunch and found this place. 


This is a chicken joint right in the heart of the city.  Got to check the place out.



chicken piece is at Php 25.00. And served with gravy.



Taste is good and complemented the spiced vinegar. I'm already full and no room left for Lucban longaniza!

My travel time is 4 1/2 hours, I dont want to get caught in the dark while passing Marcos highway. I left lucban around 12:30 pm


heavy rain at Antipolo

Arrived home at 6:00 pm. Tired but glad to have visited Lucban

Shawarma center in Ermita

My colleague at work Chris told me that he found an authentic Mideastern foodie place and it is in the heart of Ermita Manila.I can tell that it is authenthic, many Mideastern foreigners come to dine here.




There are actually two Shawarma snack center, both are located in the same street.Wondering why there are two? One is for whose budget can afford a more expensive meal and the other one is for the budget conscious consumer. So might try the budget friendly SSC. I asked the waitress and asked the difference between the two SSC, she said that the expensive one has bigger servings and the place is more elegant but the food choices is just the same. So I ordered shawarma, you can have choices in terms of serving size, they do have a promo of buying 3 medium sized shawarma for just Php 150.00. And a big serving cost Php 75.00 each.



I ordered the beef shawarma, moutabel (spicy Lebanese dip made from eggplant) , kubus, tea and a budget meal lamb keema


I liked the keema best, really spicy and complemented by a soup with curry.





I enjoyed this meal, not bad for it's price. Try checking this out when in Manila.

Price - 7/10
Taste - 7/10
Authenticity 10/10
