Plato Wraps

I see this booth in almost every SM mall I go to. So one time, I decided to check it out. Price is really affordable and the food is suprisingly good! I would think this is one of the cheapest but definitely more delicious snacks in the Metro these days.


Each wrap is prepared upon ordering.... pita bread is heated in an iron press for about a minute... after that, a prepared filling (my favorite is chicken) is added along with a couple of cucumber slices.
Sounds too bland? That was what I thought so, too. But you have to taste it for yourself. The combination of the textures plus the creaminess of the filling is so good you will keep coming back. I do.


I am glad it found its way from Dagupan to the Metro. Now I don't have to worry about what to munch for snacks when in need of a quick gastro fix at the malls.

Yin Yang Chinese Fresh Lumpia

I chanced upon this booth as I was shopping at the mall one time. Being a lover of fresh lumpia, I decided to check this out and try.
I ordered one each for hubby and me, then simply watched as they were prepared. Each was definitely well packed and filled.

I like my lumpia with lots of extra nuts, fresh garlic and bihon with seaweed bits.

... and lotsa sauce!

Truly a healthy dish for everyone, young and old, fresh lumpia as good as this is a welcome addition to the malls. Now I don't have to go to Binondo to curb my sudden cravings for lumpia.

Pork Jerky

A friend got this as a gift and I was glad she decided to share it with me.

Peeking inside the package reveals these paper thin sheets of delicious dried "pork" that are very crispy, that once you start munching on one, it is so hard to stop!

The only words that I could understand on the elegant packing and box were the words "Pork Jerky". But it certainly is easy to understand why this was given as a gift. Crispylicious!

My pictures didn't even capture half the vastness of the Pasig Rainforest. You just have to visit it to see for yourself. Go for a walk... or just jog... play sports... have a picnic... or just admire the zoo animals... a visit to the park is definitely worth it.
