Living above Robinsons Place, I’ve been eating my way through the mall.  As far as I know, nobody has ever done anything like this, my unique contribution to the city’s food/blog scene.

Marina Oyster Seafood Grill is a Filipino restaurant chain.  Founded in 1997.  Currently 9 locations, mostly in malls scattered around Metro Manila.  Touted to specialize in seafood, though at least half of the menu is comprised of meat dishes.

The crispy crablets were okay.  Nice crunch on the outside, but very little flesh inside.  As such, not much crab flavor, just a bit spicy.  Whatever.
