Food Friday: Chinese food


Lechon Macau Hotpot

Kung Hei Fat Choi
! If you're looking for something fast, inexpensive and tasty, a Chinese
restaurant is the best place to go. My friend S and I were so hungry the other night that it took us a split second to decide where to have dinner at Megamall. The newly renovated Mann Hann was full as usual, good thing we saw two friends already dining so we shared their table and didn't have to wait for a table. We had a bowl of the potentially deadly Lechon Macau Hotpot and Spicy Squid made interesting with its fish sauce and calamansi dip. I enjoy trying new dishes each time I'm in Mann Hann---they serve delicious food, reasonably priced, not boring and unpretentious.

thanks for the tip, Luna! Whenever we're abroad (once in a while, ha---hindi naman kami jetsetters ;-)) we always look for a cozy Chinese (or Vietnamese) resto just because the prices are very reasonable and yet the flavors so delectably "home". We usually though ask not to put too much MSG or even none at all :-)!

hello, bernadette! if it's my first time in a chinese restaurant, i also ask them about MSG. but frankly, i can't distinguish the difference!:D totoo, naghahanap din ako ng chinese, vietnamese or thai restaurant pag nasa abroad at nami-miss ko na ang rice. isama mo na japanese...after a week without rice, parang nagha-hallucinate na ako! hahahaha

Everything looks yummy. Mapapakain ako ng husto nyan talaga...

(Since I started cooking without MSG for more than year now (due to circumstances NOT related to any health reasons), I would know if a dish has MSG or not... haha!)
