First time to try Johnny Chow and it did not disappoint, fast service and the food oh so yummy! Not the typical chinese food but the chinese food you'll love. May just a tinnie tiny bit pricy but since proportion is for big group that's forgivable.

The food was delicious. We ordered dumplings (shrimp, pork bbq, and pork), birthday noodles, salted egg shrimps, Nirvana salad, and Macau style roasted pork. Perfect! My only complaint during the visit was the fly buzzing around.
I have always passed by Johnny Chow whenever I am in RWM and, always, I get intimidated because of its interiors so I never thought of setting foot here.
What made me finally decide to try Johnny Chow is when I saw their poster of the Hot and Sour Soup
Here’s what we ordered:
Hot and Sour Soup with Noodles - serves 5 pax for Php389. But they also have serving for 1 for Php150. The hong kong noodle was thin and soft. Goes well with the thick soup. The soup has generous serving of tofu, mushrooms, wood ear and shredded vegetables. One thing I always look for in a chinese restaurant is the Hot and Soup Soup. And I am truly happy with Johnny Chow’s version.
Famous Hot Salad - anothet staple in a chinese lauriat set meal. This one has halved grapes and chopped green apples. Usual fruit cocktail and iceberg lettuce with crispy fried prawns in a creamy mayonnaise dressing. I just found the dressing too overwhelming, too much for the fruit/prawn salad.
Johnny Chow Soy Hainan Chicken with Ginger Sauce - usual hainanese chicken but with a sweet-soy sauce. It’s a mix of hainanese chicken and soy chicken. Tender and cooked well. It also has a lot of shredded onion leeks. Try putting the soy chicken sauce over rice and add some black vinegar. Feels like home!
For its price, well, considered pricey compared to other chinese restaurants. But I wouldn’t mind paying extra knowing that I am getting quality and well-cooked food.
Their interior is also well decorated, with modern chinese music in the background. I will definitely be back soon.
