Eat Fresh = sulit sarap... :)

Hello there! :)

We (Filipinos) really love street food... It's staple; It's a part of us... :) I'm an eater of fishballs to kikiam to kwek kwek... :) I'm not that much of a fan of "isaw" (pork intestine) and "betamax" (pork blood) not unless we (my family) made it [food safety reasons... :D]. Anyhow...

My friends and I had dinner together. Before we did, they asked me what I wanted to eat (cause I'm kinda choosy with the food I eat). I really didn't have a budget for leisure eating, so i told them that I wanted good food that's pocket friendly. I wasn't choosy whether or not we've tried it before... :) [What's to be choosy about, right?? I didn't know the place and I didn't have a budget anyway... :D Haha! #poverty :D]

Since we were with someone that lives in QC, she gave us several options as to where my criteria fitted. She told us that we could visit those places then choose the best option for us... SO WE DID! :) Actually... NO, WE DIDN'T... :D Haha! The first place we went to was where we ate... :D [Didn't really have second thoughts, probably because I 'm a sucker for dumplings and the like... :D]

Eat Fresh at Brgy. Sto. Domingo, Quezon City... :)

They had a list in their menu but I concentrated in the "tusok-tusok" first... :) [rice meals to follow... :D] Well, to start with, their idea is to re-create Hong Kong's Famous Street Foods; having Hong Kong style noodles with several choices of skewers (served either deep fried or with curry sauce). Given that, I requested mine to be deep fried then I asked for curry sauce... :D Haha! #bestOFbothWORLDS :D

Enough with the talking, right?? :) Please find below photos with comments... :)

 *Dama Balls (mushroom and sotanghon balls) - uniquely different (in a good way) :D*
*Crab Egg Roll - Ahhhhh.... So yummy... :) Love the distinct taste and texture! :D [My second favorite]*
#twothumbsup :)
 *Scallops - Delicately yummy! :) Tastes like real scallops! :D [My third favorite]*
*Lobster Cheese - OMGOMGOMG!!! THE BEST!!! Love every bite! :D TRY IT!!!*
#heavenonearth :D
 *Peanut Sauce - Great tasting... :) Compliments the noodles so much! :) Best body for the noodles... :)*
*Sweet Sauce - Great mix with peanut sauce and sweet chili... :) Adds flavor... :)*
*Sweet Chili - Adds sweetness with a hint of HOTNESS... Haha! :)
 *Hong Kong Style Noodles - I love the sesame seeds with the stir-fried noodles! :)*
[The sauce used for the noodles tastes neutral which made it great for the variety of skewers they offer.]
#goodjob :)
 *Curry Sauce (accompaniment of skewers) - SOOOOoooo flavorful! :D I LOVE IT!!! :)*
[If the curry sauce was thicker, It would really be the BOMB! :)]
*Pancakes - texture of "puto", but waffle like in flavor... :) I like it... :) It's a nice dessert for the curry... :D*
*1 Liter of Gulaman (Hong Kong Style) - the extract gave it a unique flavor... :)*
#goodjob :D


Until next time! :) Enjoy and God bless! :)
