The slight twists they put on pinoy desserts are just right. It doesn’t overwhelm or change the taste of classics we love.
I ordered Patis Wings and Sinigang na baboy through foodpanda. I love the hint of calamansi and pepper in their chicken and that amazing glaze, caramel patis is extraordinary. I love that sweet and salty matched with caramel flavor, it goes really well with their chicken. I super love it. Sinigang is good too, i love how they're being generous with vegetables in it.
The food is nice! Super! Everything is on point. I could have give them 5 if they can only be generous with serving
Recommended by friends and been dying to go here since last year and finally! Had a catching up with my favorite person here last night (too bad she’s not into Filipino comfort food) and my I ate a LOT.
So let’s start with the ambiance, when we got there it’s packed by families & friends. Not surprised though because sunday is well, family day & holiday season so... crowded but not looking chaotic. White & gold interiors made it look clean, spacious & classy.
I ordered seafood kare kare, caramelized chicken wings in patis & puto bumbong with muscovado butter while my friend ordered ube sago & frozen brazo de mercedes. I kinda had a feeling that the servings are gonna be generous so I opted for small sizes only and true enough, their small bowl of seafood kare kare is good for two people already! Nothing disappointed me to be honest. Food was great & I fell in love with the kare kare sauce consistency & right amount of sweet-salty taste of the caramelized chicken wings in patis. I was planning to try the laksa (recommended by a friend) but totally forgot about it due to soooo many food to choose from the menu (will definitely go back to try this dish & the butterfly pla-pla!)
Actually five star but we were seated outside and a noisy spot since a lot of shoppers are passing by so 4 stars for now.
The lamb adobo was excellent, sour and sweetness is battling in your mouth. The lamb was so tender. The sisig was nice too. I don't normally eat sisig, but the sisig here is so crunchy and tasty. The laing was average. The lumpiang bicol express was amazing. Not your usual lumpia, it was spicy but not too much. Overall it was a great experience. As per the setting, it was great for family. The ambience was nice.

Clearly, our new favorite place to dine.
Pancit sisig is my new favorite dish :) Perfect twist of two Filipino faves. Sisig was crunchy and the pancit had the right saltiness. The garlic crispy pata is your usual crispy pata... nothing outstanding here.
The halo-halo is good... I liked the ube ice cream and leche flan. However, the chunks of shaved ice were a buzzkill since it was hard to melt and made mixing the ingredients tedious.
Service was great.
Msarap lht nung food na naorder namin... suggestion lng sana meron din cla group meal, i mean ung set meal na.. for big groups.. although meron cla size Small, medium, large, for us kc n mahilig kumain labas with the whole family tpos may kids pa.. hirap mg isa isa ng food e.. hehe un lng nmn but the food and service is good👍🏻
Manam cafe in Megamall is a great place to bring your local and foreign friends. It tends to have a long line but they will give you water and popcorn sometimes while waiting.
The watermelom beef rib sinigang is what is unique here so better try it, together with their famous crispy house sisig.
We ordered the garlicky chicken and pork adobo and im not a fan. Their gising gising vegetable is also good. And dont forget to order that ube sago shake which is so good!
Overall, food is definitely 'panlasang pinoy' (suits the tastebuds of the filipinos). The good thing about almost all dish is that it comes in S, M and L sizes. However, there might be some dish that foreigners may find too salty so give them a headsup.
You can get one free soup refill for your sinigang!👌🥰
Must try are the sinigang beef short ribs in watermelon and their house sisig.
For dessert, try their ube sago and bibingka leche
