I still maintain that the chicken is the one thing that remains great. I went back to this place just for it. :) Isai – Yes I agree it must have been the choice of food that I ordered.

Cheap pero so far it never disappointed me if we were talking about food. Hehe. I hate their "please wait to be seated" concept though. Not really working cos they don't assist agad. :( BUT I think perhaps it was just the choice of food. You should try their oil and garlic in white sauce pastas and the nut pesto ones. Their seafood pesto pizza is good too. I still think the branch in Glorietta is better. :-) I think A Veneto is really a good place to eat.

Yes! I remember these a long time ago. The relative of my former classmate is the owner of Eriel's. When I tasted the silvanas for the first time, I was hooked! I bought two dozen boxes and brought them as pasalubong when I went back to America. Of course, they were a bit soggy, even though I froze them before I left the Philippines, but when I got home, I just popped them back in the freezer and voila! Crispy yumminess was restored! On a return trip to the Philippines, I found equally tasty silvanas at a stand in Greenhills. But, I will always love the original - Eriel's. Such cute packaging! OMG! Yes!

The last time I tasted one was when I was cajoled into buying a buy-1-take-1 moist cake slice at Shopwise. It was a romantic night -- just me and the cake slices. I can tell by the chocolate layers being really moist and all that it goes down well coz not all moist cakes are like that -- Mondo Juice's in particular. Sinful!

We have yet to start the food and 'twas terrible we found a "fly" in our Miso Ramen. We immediately showed to the waiters and waitresses... and they pulled out the Miso Ramen outright. I understand it could happen from other restaurant but one thing made me upset.. NOBODY FROM THE STAFFS HAVE EVER APOLOGIZED ON THE INCIDENT... until we left the place, NOBODY APOLOGIZED!!! Out of my 5 visits to John & Yoko Greenbelt 5, I encountered the sanitary problem twice on separate occasions and I never ever received apologies...

I'm just not 100% sure because I left the Philippines last December '08 and moved here to California. Try to check it out and it's always nice to know where our goodies are coming from.
