For a limited time this holiday season, IHOP Philippines is adding a Filipino touch to their scrumptious international offerings. The girls and I were at the IHOP Mall of Asia branch yesterday, tried the Bibingka Pancake (P225) which was served atop a banana leaf, and liked it.This one differs from the traditional Pinoy rice cake in terms of flour used. There's a twist to the usual recipe with the addition of muscovado sugar in between the pancakes. Toppings include whole duck eggs, shredded parmesan, cheddar cheese and dessicated coconut. Definitely worth trying ... Continue Reading...
IHOP Philippines opening more branches
It seemed only last year when the first branch of IHOP (International House of Pancakes) opened in Bonifacio Global City. Who can forget those deliriously-long lines? The queues are gone at the BGC branch the last time we checked but that's probably because IHOP has also opened in UP Town Center in Quezon City and Mall of Asia in Pasay City. MOA? Yay. So near me. If I remember right, this new branch occupies the former location of Seattle's Best, in front of the bay. I went here last week for the first anniversary celebration of IHOP in the Philippines. Was I ... Continue Reading...
New sandwiches at IHOP BGC
Who can resist comfort food? It's always nice to come home to the Philippines' only IHOP at BGC (Bonifacio Global City) for you. I avoided this place when it was new and the lines were long. It was still crowded when we went there on a weekday night but the lines are gone. So, we're back to attack.... Duo of eggs, hash browns, pork sausage links and bacon.... the classic breakfast which you can take any time of day in this resto. Heavenly fluffy pancakes with the most generous toppings and syrups this side of town. Pictured here is the one with blueberry ... Continue Reading...
1st IHOP in the Philippines opens Feb 15! (updated)
I've been seeing a lot of searches for IHOP in this blog which only means that the people of Manila can't wait to taste the heavenly pancakes and more at IHOP. Well I guess the waiting won't take so long because the first branch of ihop opens in Bonifacio Global City post-Valentine's. The doors open at 6 am, Feb. 15 (today) to be exact. It will be only be a soft opening but expect the crowd to be full already. We've been told that IHOP Philippines will adopt the same menu as those in the US. Aside from the the usual breakfast stuff like pancakes, omelettes, waffles ... Continue Reading...
PF Chang’s now open in BGC!
After a successful opening in Alabang, the US-based PF Chang's China Bistro finally opened at the Bonifacio Global City just in time for Valentine's and Chinese New Year. The interiors are quite different from their Alabang location. This one is predominantly light wood and has a laid-back country feel. Their trademark terra cotta horses are still noticeable by the entrance. Here's a view I took from the second floor after negotiating the steep stairs (note: not really advisable for senior citizens) PF Chang's is at the W Global Center, BGC (nearest to CAV in ...
