Located on the service road parallel to Roxas Boulevard – the main street along Manila Bay from the airport to the neighborhood where WHO is – I’ve passed by the place for years, always been curious, just never got around to checking it out.

Digging the old-school vibe.

Digging the get-down-to-business menu.

The food was okay.  Not enough to make an effort for a repeat visit, but I wouldn’t object if invited back.

Chicken with Sticky Rice in Bamboo (2.5)

Interesting how different the spread can turn out when dining with others – clearly, the scallop dish is something I would ordinarily order, but not the jellyfish or stick rice.
