So last night my fiancé and her family brought me to this restaurant. Upon entering everything…read morelooked great. Nice atmosphere. Lots of customers. From what I could see on the plates of others, the food looked great. Once seated, I scanned the menu and was pleased to find both Filipino and Western food. Everything was off to a great start until I noticed a cockroach crawling on the wall as I was eating my dinner. The site of this was a little disturbing, but I just told myself "this is the Philippines, a tropical climate...lots of bugs. So I continued to eat my meal and then I happened to look down at my plate and seen a second roach. However, this time, the cockroach was already dead and had been for a while. My stomach turned and I almost vomited. I immediately pushed my plate away in disgust. My fiancé and her family asked what was wrong and then I showed them. This too made everyone sick. My fiancé then asked to speak to a manager. While waiting for someone to come, a third roach passed by, crawling on the wall. Instead of getting a manager, a different wait staff member came by and began to inquire as to what was wrong. I as a foreigner just kept my mouth shut because I knew that it would be a losing battle to attempt to argue my case. After explaining the entire situation to the server, my fiancé wasn't given any apology. No embarrassment on the staff of this restaurant. It was as if we were made to feel as if we had done something wrong. The server kept stating that if we didn't pay that they (restaurant employees) would be responsible for the bill, which in my opinion has NOTHING to do with me or the party I was with. I know that the standards are a lot different in the Philippines than where I'm from, but I really feel like this place needs to be inspected. This is a matter of public safety. Anyway, I would encourage everyone to avoid this establishment. Maybe if there are no customers then attitudes will change (Not just at this restaurant, but at all business that don't or refuse to maintain high standards). After everything was said and done, we (my party) got up and walked out without paying. Very disappointing experience to say the least.

This place always had a long line whenever I passed by. I finally had the opportunity to find out…read morewhy people fall in line for their yogurt. There's a sign that states where the line starts with poles guiding people as to where they should be falling in line. Like numerous others, I didn't see the sign. People started falling in line by the window, which is where I was sitting. I eventually moved my seat. Now, I totally understand what the hype is all about. They offer fruits, sauces, and crunch options that other frozen yogurt companies do not offer. While I was falling in line, someone was writing down what I wanted to order. I was impressed that she upsold me. I was asked which option I wanted. I opted for a cup or tub. Then she asked if I wanted a medium or a large. She didn't ask if I wanted a small, medium, or large. I'm thankful I ordered a medium! The couple behind me had a slight misunderstanding because the female ordered small for them to share. He didn't sound happy with her choice. Eventually, she changed the order to a larger size. I knew that I wanted mango. I am thankful that the employee suggested the Biscoff crunch and sauce. Oh my gosh, I slowly ate my yogurt. I wanted to enjoy every crunch with the sauce and yogurt. They gave a generous amount of everything. I would highly recommend llaollao!

ICE CREAM ! We spoiled ourselves at the Creamline Ice Cream House in the Clark Freeport Zone,…read morePampanga because it's the best. They have a lot of ice cream flavors for you to choose from! Their ice creams are very sweet and so full of lively color. It's also made right on the location itself (it's the main factory after all!) so you're sure you're getting only the freshest stuff. And it's not the only thing awesome there. They also have like pastas, sandwiches and some rice meals and the like, but we're there for all that ice cream! I totally recommend the Mt. Pinatubo it's so good and great for sharing! Getting there is simple, though I don't know how to get there by commuting, but you really can't miss the location. The atmosphere is nice, bright (though not as bright as some of their colorful popsicles!) and clean and the staff were friendly when we were there. Definitely coming again very soon.

If you want to have the ABSOLUTE BEST Halo Halo in the world, then you must plan a trip to Ben's…read moreHalo Halo!!!! It is a great establishment for a wonderful family experience!

It's so hot here in the Philippines so this place was the perfect spot to retreat from the heat and…read moreenjoy some halo halo! Halo Halo is a traditional Filipino snack/dessert we grew up with cooking us down from the heat of our motherland, the Philippine Islands. It's the Filipino version of America's ice cream treat and a more sophisticated hawaiian shaved ice concocted with evaporated or condensed milk, sweetened beans, leche flan, crunchy flattened dried rice (pinipig) to give it that crunch and Filipino flavored ice cream. Ben's came highly recommended by my dad and his girlfriend who was taken here by my dad's friend escaping a funeral in the hottest part of the summer. This place lived up to the hype! It is air conditioned, very clean and inviting. They have different types of halo halo to choose from varying from Ben's original traditional famous halo halo to spicy with their Spicy Winter Halo Halo, corn (mais Con Yelo), Macapuno (Sweet Coconut Strands) and even a unique take on sweet and salty with their salted egg version of Salty Summer. For an average of about $2 each, these icy treats are a must find here in the town of Silang. Ben's is located in the heart of Silang Town Proper about a block down the main big Catholic church of Candelaria. Management has a sign up protecting their employees from customer abuse which made me very good inside for the level of care the owners exercise in protecting and caring for their employees. My sister ordered their cucumber water which we found to be extremely sweet. We self served ourselves with water from their self serve water station and poured half of the cucumber water in a glass and poured regular water in it to dilute the sweetness to taste. It was very good once we added more water. The mango juice I ordered came from a can and the brand they have on hand is quite delicious! I thoroughly enjoyed my Spicy Winter Halo Halo. The heat from the hot Thai chili peppers compliments the sweetness of the halo halo which is literally translated as "mix mix". There are other halo halo joints around Silang but at first taste, this became an instant favorite. The ice is very fine, not crunchy and it reminded me of Japanese Kakigori which is crushed fine ice. I highly recommend stopping by and fulfilling your halo halo urge here!

I don't buy the "oh it's healthy that's why it's pricey" justification (loaded with sugar, anyway). Try out the different flavors first if you don't know what to get yet. Their staff would be happy to give out samples! I recommend their tangerine flavor if you want something tangy.

I think the best frozen yogurt yet in the South is Pinkberry. I guess what makes it easy to love is…read morethat their flavors are very distinct that even non-yogurt lovers would love it. Every month, they change the flavors in their yogurt selection. Most of the time, the flavors are Original, Peach, Chocolate, Hazelnut, Strawberry and Grapefruit. Among these, my favorite is the Peach flavor. It has the right amount of tang and sweetness without the artificial flavor of Peach. For those who find frozen yogurt too sour, I recommend the Chocolate or Hazelnut. It doesn't taste like frozen yogurt because there's no pinch of sourness. It's like eating ice cream but a healtheir version. Their small cup already has a big swirl of this cold treat so I think it's enough for your frozen yogurt craving. You can also choose one or more kinds of toppings for extra flavor!

The service was also fast. I wish we had this in Florida because I will keep chasing the taste of their ice creaming!
