NEW RESTO ALERT: Grub

A very interesting name for a restaurant. Okay, okay ... I admit that "grub" was not a frequently used word in my world nor my mental dictionary that after my first visit to the resto, I checked Mr. Google and searched the meaning of "grub" which I found out is a slang word that pertains to food. Wow! Thank you, Mr. Online Dictionary. ;)

I also like the "warehouse-vibe" of the restaurant.

Fried Chicken Wings. Crispy and flavorful. The dip is a secret kitchen recipe. Yum!

Moo Melt. This sandwich is love. I love beef and I love cheese. The beef and melted cheese combo on this sandwich is really delicious. You just have to eat it while its still hot and warm to fully appreciate the gooey-ness of the cheese.

The Pig Candy Melt. A bacon-wich! What a brilliant idea to enjoy your bread and cheese. Needs some potato chips on the side, too. And who doesn't like bacon? ;)

The Hot Chicks. Another winner here. I love the spicy chicken with the lettuce. Its like eating bread and chicken salad at the same time. To tell you frankly, I was hesitant to taste this at first since I can't seem to reconcile the idea of chicken pops and bread, but I know that I'll regret it if I didn't have a bite so there. Happy ending. :)

Iced Tea. They home-brew this and serve it in mason jars for single orders which I find cute. Pitcher order comes in a gallon bottle.

Earle's

At last, at last ... I was able to meet and dine with Earle. 

It was not really a planned trip since me and my friend, Jean, were craving for some cream puffs and meant to go somewhere but for some unknown reason, we ended up at Earle's Delicatessen at The Columns. But I'd like to thank, Uncle J for meeting us up first in Starbucks Columns because if not for him, we won't be ending up at Earle's.

And ang daming choices --- ***hyperventilates

But since Jean and I were still full from lunch, we ended up ordering only this ... ang sarap!!!!! Bought some for hubby and daughter.

Stuffed Breadsticks are also available and being sold for P19/pc and there are several flavors to choose from. Bestseller daw ang Chicken Pesto but daughter and I loved the Beef Taco. A pack of 10 costs P160 but single flavor lang. This is like Mantou Breadsticks. And is a great snack / baon idea since its almost the beginning of SY 2013-2014. 

Seaweed Tempura


Hubby loves this seaweed snack that I bought from a store somewhere in Ongpin. Costs less than P70. I'm not sure if this is healthy since I find it oily (not to mention the msg content) but since we don't eat this every day, I guess its okay.
