World Chicken ( trinoma food court )


World Chicken is located at the trinoma food court. It is one of those restaurants that gives you the freedom to customize what you want in your meal. You can choose from different sauces and side dishes, rice or pasta to go with their grilled chicken, if one side dish isn't enough, make it two. You can do all of these here without going over your budget and be satisfied after each meal.


Grilled Chicken with Mushroom and Corn Sauce, Tuna Fettuccine and Garlic Bread. 
We tried the mushroom and corn sauce on the grilled chicken. The sauce blends well with the flavor of the grilled chicken which is perfectly cooked. It tastes like a fusion of cream of mushroom and cream of corn, with mushroom and corn bits in it. The tuna fettuccine is just the ordinary tuna pasta sprinkled with a little bit of cheese. The noodles are al dente but it's a little bland. The garlic bread is not the best out there but it still goes well with the pasta. All of these for 171 pesos.


Grilled Chicken with Mornay Cheese Sauce and Pesto Pasta
The mornay cheese sauce is great for cheese lovers and goes well with the flavor of the grilled chicken. The pesto sauce is a bit salty but it still tastes good and goes perfectly well with the noodles. These two sauces are a great combination for me. This meal costs 151 pesos.

Service is good and fast. Wide array of choices and the freedom to customize, good food at a reasonable price and ample servings are reasons good enough to come and dine here at World Chicken again.

Chowking ( Laoag , Ilocos Norte )

One sunny afternoon, as we stroll the streets of Laoag, Ilocos Norte on our recent trip here, we found ourselves craving for something cold. We saw a Chowking restaurant across the street and the first thing that came into our minds was halo halo. Chowking is known to serve this famous Filipino delicacy any time of the day and anytime of the year. 


We had the regular sized halo halo. It still has the same old tasty ingredients like the kaong, banana, leche flan, scoop of ube ice cream, pinipig, etc. One thing I've noticed was its size, it seems that the serving size gets smaller each year. They have another variant which is called the Milky White, it has macapuno unlike the halo halo, it also has a scoop of vanilla ice cream and lots of milk. Having tasted both variants, I can say that the Milky White is sweeter and milkier than the halo halo. The halo halo on the other hand, has more ingredients and balance of flavors.

Service is fast, the place is clean and of course, it is budget friendly.
