It was a hectic Friday. After work, DH and I visited a back to back EXPO at the World Trade Center in the afternoon and went straight to Gerry's Grill for a what you call sumptuous dinner.
I was once again invited by the force behind Stratigem to taste the latest offering of Gerry's Grill. I am glad to see some new faces when we arrived and some old ones too! Fellow bloggers were already capturing pictures when I arrived. I have to thank the traffic for arriving fashionably late haha
The following food were served that night:
caldereta PhP220
Ok, so this made on top of my list haha Caldereta is a local version of beef stew. I love it's strong taste plus the veggies were cooked just right. I love that it has melted cheese on top! yum!
sizzling tilapia ala pobre Php245
Tired of sizzling bangus? You can now order order sizzling tilapia ala pobre instead. Don't you just love the garlic on top. I wish they would put more though haha
sisig
You know that I am not fond of sisig. So, I ask DH to try it and he said "ok naman". So, there goes my short description of sisig hehe
ginataan plapla PhP225
I never heard of pla pla. Well, not until now haha I get to taste a wee bit of the meat and it was alright.
sizzling binagoongang baboy PhP165
Priced at only PhP165, this alone can be my ulam na, to share pa haha I love anything with bagoong that's why.
sizzling garlic chicken
shrimp with chips
In as much as I would like to stay away from deep fried food. There is always a deep fried entree whenever I would attend a blog event. Not that I am complaining but my DH will haha I think I ate four, three two* of these shrimps hehe *DH might get to read this post haha
tinomok
I mistook this for laing. I wasn't sure what it is. This food was situated farthest from me and sad to say, I wasn't able to taste it. Good thing, I had enough shrimps in my belly lol *wink*
adobo puso rice PhP155
Filipino style of eating always goes with rice. This particular rice reminds me of ma chang, a Chinese version of sticky brown rice with pieces of meat (pork or chicken or both) wrapped together in banana leaves.
With numerous Filipino restaurants sprouting each day, Gerry's Grill is where you'd still rather be! I can attest to that because I, for one, has celebrated my birthday here!
