Tucked inside the posh Rockwell mall is a Filipino "Comfort Food" restaurant called Wooden Spoon by Sandy Daza. I grew up watching the "Dazas" on TV learning recipes after recipes. I always tell myself: "They look great on TV but I bet they don't taste as good in person!"
When the family and I had were finally at the mall and decided to grab dinner there, it was perfect timing for me to see if it is worth the visit!
Lechon Kawali
Php265.00
This is every Filipino's favorite. I agree, they use the leanest pork belly and simmered it until very tender before deep-fried. That explains the crunchy texture on the outside and juicy soft pork on the inside! This comes with 3 different dipping and I love them all!
Pan Grilled Tuna Belly
Php310.00
I've always been a fan of Tuna Belly from Gery's, but this is definitely a-must-try dish at Wooden Spoon. Why? Well, the tuna belly here is juicy and grilled in perfection! With kamatis itlog na maalat, crunchy green magoes and bagoong, this reminds me so much of HOME.
