Priceless moments and affordable dining.

There’s a reason why some popular restaurants remain timeless ~ one bite and you’re instantly taken aback to a happy memory. Maybe it’s your childhood party, a family gathering, a first date…either way, food has the magic to arouse emotions and create priceless moments.

But dining doesn’t always need to be priceless. Thankfully we have Eatigo, Asia’s leading online reservations platform which affords users time-based deals up to 50% off on their favorite participating restaurants.

A familiar choice from Eatigo would be Pancake House. This breakfast staple has been around since the 1970’s, inviting customers in with their vibrant orange and pink booths. But the real stars of this diner are the fluffy pancakes and succulent fried chicken which have catered to hungry bellies across all generations, from children up to their grandparents.

Another mouth-watering option would be Barrio Fiesta’s special Crispy Pata and cult-favorite Kare-Kare. The pork knuckles fried until golden and crisp, along with the delicious mix of simmered oxtail, veggies, and savory peanut-based sauce make this humble restaurant an easy “Yes!” from customers up to this day.

My nephew, Sean celebrated his 11th birthday earlier this month and he requested that we treat him to Wence’ Dessert Cafe. We’ve been wanting to try the place out but never got the chance to do it yet, so we set out to visit the place on Sunday afternoon.

It was a full house that afternoon and we were made to wait outside for awhile until a table is available. After several minutes, we were informed that a table for 6 has been vacated at the 2nd floor.

It is a very small place and since it was packed with diners that day, it was a relief to be upstairs where there are less people and noise. I wish they’d made the windows bigger, though, as the limited space upstairs is really claustrophobic!

our birthday pancit of the day 🙂

Note: This post was first published on my foodie blog, Mum Eats, on 03 September 2013  :plate: 

We went to Aristocrat in SM North ~ The Block for the little man’s birthday lunch. Although this restaurant is well-known for their barbecue, we decided to skip it that day since the little man is not yet eating that. We opted for their friend chicken, instead, coupled with their pancit and ordered a couple more dishes. For our serving of vegetables, we had an order of fresh lumpia and laing. To complete our meal, we also had a serving of their beef caldereta.

The little man was preoccupied with his new toys, a pair of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles action figure, which we gifted him for his birthday. He only had a couple of spoonfuls of his serving of pancit before he went on to play with his new toys. The grown ups, on the other hand, had a really satisfying meal. I simply love the fresh lumpia and its sauce! Laing is something I do not eat quite often, since I do not know how to prepare it, so I really enjoyed this dish. It was just delicious with the right amount of spice in it. The crowd favorite that afternoon, though, will have to be the beef caldereta. It was tasty and the beef is so tender. I wish I can make my own version of this dish, I’d probably cook it every week if I know how to prepare it! 🙂
