TROPICAL HUT SPRING CHICKEN
A spring chicken is a very young bird with a high ratio of white to dark meat. Idiomatically, it could represent a person in the prime of his or her youth [http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-a-spring-chicken.htm]. But eating spring chicken would not take you to the fountain of youth, but simply will make your stomach full. Because in Tropical Hut, they serve one whole spring chicken, too. Sorry Max’s. I love Tropical Hut now.
A whooping P140 value meal and P130 solo, Tropical Hut’s Spring Chicken in SM taytay is more affordable than the one you buy at the improvised grilling stalls at wet markets and the street sides!SNOWPY SUNDAE CUPS
An extreme taste bud tickler. A calisthenics of rich cream and vigorous milk. A monsoon of cold vacuum in the watering mouth. And that is how I define ice cream. And I found its meaning at Snowpy, of course at SM taytay!
If you’re fed up with dirty ice cream, go to Snowpy, it’s an ice cream cart with class. For only P12 for an ice cream cup, and P18 for a choco sundae with toppings, dropping by the food court will not be simple errand from your mother, girlfriend or boyfriend. It will be a habit.
Thanks Snowpy for bringing snow to our tropical mouths.
It has been raining lately. And we could find ourselves craving for hot coffee, tsamporado with tuyo, and especially, chicken soup! It can not only be found at home, but also at Reyes Barbeque—a haven of delectable Filipino cuisine.
Coupled with sotanghon, Reyes Barbeque’s chicken soup could satisfy your appetite and replenish your exhausted body, because of its soothing aroma and stirring taste. In Filipino culture, the table is incomplete without “sabaw”! Reyes chicken soup is one best choice to sip, when you come scurrying to SM taytay for a cover from a heavy rain and an empty stomach.
It costs only P26! Try comparing it to how much your mother spent for her macaroni soup.
One buko a day keeps a urologist away! Buko ni Frutas, thus, brings a doctor to SM taytay.
Buko juice is rich in electrolytes that helps alleviate kidney problems such as UTI. I have loved drinking buko juice since I was a kid, because I was a UTI victim myself! I am a living testimony (or a saint) of the best health benefits of drinking buko juice; it does not only cure organ problems, but it is also better than water! So, when I’m lost in an island (with a cute chick I guess), I would survive drinking buko juice alone!
Here at SM food court, one cup of buko juice costs P19 for 25 oz, and P12 for 16 oz. Another affordable treat to yourself since you dropped by the mall to escape from the scorching heat outside, why not refresh yourself with the ever nutritious Buko Juice.
Just do not ask your guy friend, “pa-BJ naman!” when you are around the food court. He might crush your kidneys.ONE SERVING OF TAKOYAKI
Takoyakis are muffins baked in a fishball stall! These nimbly created balls are lurking around malls. And I began to love them at SM Taytay’s food court, because that is where the nearest Takoyaki stall is from our town. Like Ruffa Gutierrez would have said, “meron bang Takoyaki sa Angono?”
I googled the etymology of takoyaki, and I found out that the word “takoyaki” literally means “fried or baked octopus” in Japanese. It is a popular Japanese dumpling made of batter, diced or whole baby octopus, tempura scraps (tenkasu), pickled ginger, and green onion, topped with okonomiyaki sauce, ponzu, mayonnaise, green laveraonori, and katsuobushi (fish shavings), first popularized in Taisho-era Osaka, where a street vendor named Endo Tomekichi is credited with its invention in 1935 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Takoyaki].
So I guess it’s safe to say takoyakis are muffins because they are freshly baked on takoyaki pans’ cast iron with half-spherical molds. One will be amazed by how Takoyakis are prepared and finally served. It’s like you are watching a Kabuki cooking up Takoyaki balls! See it for yourself at SM Taytay foodcourt.
A serving of takoyaki in SM taytay costs only P15, P20, and P25 for 2, 3, and 4 pieces, respectively. As we say, barya lang!
