What i like with the chocolate is that it is not too sweet . Unlike what other popular restaurant offers.
crispy bangus paksiw
Another must “TRY” is the bangus paksiw , fried rice, egg with grilled eggplant and the paksiw sauce . I prefer on how they marinate the bangus ( milk fish ) not to sour unlike the commercially available . Just Right !

US Angus Tapa style
” Tapa” meal is one of the all- time favorite in the restaurant. I like the way it is marinated and soft texture . I also like the achara ( pickled vegetable)
hashsilog
Hashsilog is a breakfast and a pulutan combined into one. With potatoes , corn-beef and topped with egg served in sizzling plate . You need to mix them before eating them.
