Seafood at the Sky Garden

By -
Dinner out with the family is something I look forward to, as it is a time talk about our lives and enjoy the company of the people you hold most dear. Though one evening at SM Lanang's sky garden, the table was silent, not because of some family squabble but because of the wonderful dining experience we had at...


I haven't tried their Tuna, but I can say that their seafood is something that I can definitely recommend! So I can confirm that at least half their slogan delivers.

We ordered the following that night: Their Swordfish soup, Hilabos na Hipon(Prawns), The Lechon Kawali(pork),  Grilled Bihod(Roe), and The Squid served on a sizzling plate. All of which had either a wonderful or Memorable flavor. I'll give you the detail of each and every dishes' flavor:

The Swordfish Soup:


I've had different kinds of fish and soups before, but this swordfish soup by far had the most memorable flavor. The aroma was inviting, the soup had a rich taste to it and matched the vegetables that was in it. But what was most memorable about this dish was the swordfish itself; it's texture was soft and had a, for the lack of a better word, forbidden taste to it. Not in a bad way though, in fact it was quite good! You'd have to try it for yourself to get what I mean.

The Hilabos na Hipon(Prawns):


To tell you the truth I'm not sure if it was Hilabos na Hipon, but it was Hipon and it was GOOD! The prawns being cooked in the sauce and soaked in it , had a wonderful flavor of the prawns sweet meat accompanied by the taste herbs and spices. My older brother, a big fan of Prawns and a picky eater, loved it!

The Lechon Kawali:

I love pork! This dish is done well, love the smell, love the taste, love everything!

The Grilled Bihod(Roe):


Grilled to perfection! Not burnt nor underdone, the flavor of the cooked Roe with the Atchara(pickeled unripe papaya and carrots) reminds you of a sunny day on the beach. For me, a Seafood meal is not complete without this.

The Squid:


It's hard to cook squid properly, even harder to cook it perfectly. The aroma of herbs and spices, the sweetness of the sauce, the soft meat of the perfectly cooked squid gave a flavor one can almost never forget.

The silence was broken only after the meal, and we had our usual dinner conversation, as any family we had our difference of opinion about things, but we all agreed that dinner that night was an excellent.

After checking on the delivery of the oven I ordered for a new Pizza business I'm putting up with friends, I couldn't help but feel an urge to eat meat, steak in particular. I decided that my destination would be a well known buffet place for their unlimited steak for dinner, a place that I will review and blog about later in the future as things did not go as planned... I was lost, unable to locate the nearest branch of the buffet place where I've decided to dine, and as I was about to give up and head home I saw..  Forgive the poor photo quality, I did not have my DSLR handy and that time. Karlyn Food Station; most  Davaoeños know about this restaurant, well known for their "Steak Ala Pobre". They also serve a lot of great food like; Beef Stroganoff, and Beef Caldereta, but for now we will be talking about their steak. Cooked on a sizzling plate, at a counter near the tables. I salivate as I await my order... I've cooked "Steak Ala Pobr...

Oh~! Delicious Chicken!

When you ask a Filipino; "Where can I get good fried chicken?" majority will answer "Jollibee" and some "KFC" and the rest will name some other generic fried chicken fast food place. But we don't talk about fast food here! NOT IN MY BLOG! Sunburst, it's been a long time since I last dined here and their fried chicken is the same as always; Good! Unlike some establishments where you can no longer taste the same chicken you ate as a child, but I don't want to "buzz" about restaurants that lost quality, I want to talk about restaurants with good food! First off lets talk about the restaurant; the decor and overall style is simple yet it makes it cozy the way any Filipino restaurants should be. A place to relax and enjoy your casual meal with your family or friends and have a conversation. When I was there it was quite clean, and all the waiters were very attentive and polite. Now about the food, I have honest only t...
