My mom was looking for something specific but couldn't remember the name of it or find it on the menu, so one server listened to her describe it and found it for us (Two Kinds of Roasted Combination). The restaurant itself is fairly standard. Nothing too special but it did look like they had a private party room. The other items we ordered were all pretty delicious (har gow, pork siomai, prawns in Peking sauce, fried noodles with seafood, superior fried rice, and buchi). I would come back to dine in or order delivery/takeout.

We ordered a dumpling soup, siu mai, beef balls, har gaw, and fried tofu squares. The food is delicious as expected of a Michelin star restaurant but the fried tofu cubes did it for me!

SM has really been upping up the ante in terms of experience and abundance of choice for its…read morecustomers. I was recently at the food court area of SM Makati and I was quite taken with the way the area was designed. This was definitely not the SM food court of my childhood in the 90s. After surveying the food options, I zeroed in on an interesting food concept - Dipping Dumpling. The idea is to choose any sort of dumpling from a range of options and to choose a dip to go along with the dumplings. The dumpling choices ranged from the normal, which are the usual Pork Dumplings, Sharks Fin, Shrimp Wantons to the more uncommon ones like Scallop Wanton, Crab Wanton, Prawn Puff, Squid Wanton and so much more. For the dipping sauces, there were Szechuan Chili, Sweet Miso, Spicy Peanut, Curry Sate and Sesame Soy. There were so many choices that I actually had a hard time choosing! Eventually, I got the Scallop Wanton with the Szechuan Chili dip and it was delish! And the whole thing cost less than a hundred pesos! I am definitely going back to this food court gem in the future.

But they passed by all the time checking our table. Don't get me wrong it's so many staffs that hang around inside the counter by the kitchen chitchatting with "Jerry"instead of checking the costumers table. So disappointed with everything. Like are they all working on the bill or on the floor. Maybe the other location has better service than the one in mall of Asia.

I had high hopes for this restaurant when I got there. The front host of the house and the…read moreservers assigned to my table were friendly. I had not eaten all day so I was famished. I was given the menu, the server showed me where to find the "solo items". I ordered the brisket and the roast pork. Service is slow here. Well almost everywhere. I don't understand that though????? There's so many staff even in the kitchen but it's just so slow! First I got my brisket. Being my first time there I was wondering where the rice was. So I asked the server who brought my brisket and I asked him really nice too! But he looked at me like I'm stupid and said something I really didn't comprehend because I was just surprised at his attitude. Then before he could leave I asked for some napkins and it's like he took a deep breath bec the napkin holder was on my table, but was behind the table card advertising! Gosh I'm sorry I didn't see it! I just felt so uncomfortable after that, almost wanted to leave but I was so hungry I stayed. Which was an unfortunate decision because I just felt again uncomfortable when he was around, pushing chairs next to my table like he was mad or something. Well anyway, got my brisket and it seems like eternity before I even got my roast pork! As in! At least 15 minute passed already. I wonder why it took sooooooo long?????? It wasn't that crowded. I could see the kitchen staff looking out, watching the band or whatever commotion is happening outside. Well the brisket just had a weird taste and the roast pork, I wish the skin was more crispy. The rice was cold already, it was probably sitting there for a long time. I called the manager to hand him my comment card and tell him my dining experience. That one server who brought out my brisket just left a very bad taste in my mouth! Would I recommend this restaurant...... absolutely NOT!

But siopao bread is amazing...and I know how weird that sounds since it's the blandest thing ever. Since I stopped eating meat, naturally I wouldn't go looking for siopao. But Pao Express' siopao really intrigued me, as they have whole wheat veggie siopao AND multigrain mushroom siopao! And I love veggies and mushrooms, so it was a match! I eat the whole siopao now! I first tried their siopao and spinach dumplings at Cocogreen, an organic store that used to stock it when it was still located in Yakal St. But Pao Express can be found in Legazpi Sunday Market, and they do have some stalls in some malls (Market Market, MOA, SM Sucat, to name a few). For vegans: They don't have the 2 siopao flavors and spinach dimsum in their mall kiosks, though. However, what they do have at the mall branches is the siopao that has beans inside, which is a cheap, yummy treat. I share it with my dog and he goes CRAZY for it.
