There's also barrio fiesta but for the taste and price... i'd rather spend my dirhams on food i can't cook better at home! :DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15647147.post-49573751537735801142011-07-23T16:31:23.728+08:002011-07-23T16:31:23.728+08:00nakakataba ng puso! way to go, Ivan!nakakataba ng puso! way to go, Ivan!EJ Arboledahttp://manilareviews.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15647147.post-60084475448827157162011-07-23T16:28:16.115+08:002011-07-23T16:28:16.115+08:00TPBowles stepson of prince Charles?

Either he was being polite or he bashed kare-kare and dinuguan to make his case for sisig. In fact, he also enjoyed the bopis we had in Binondo but there was no mention of it in the article.
