Guevarra's goes beyond the buffet table, launches new website

My entire family loves dining at Guevarra's in San Juan City. It's always a family affair. When we want to celebrate a special occasion, or just want to get together in Metro Manila, this buffet restaurant is always on top of the list.

Then, the pandemic hit. Dining in, especially buffets, became obsolete during the lockdown. Businesses tried to cope by shifting to deliveries. Some barely managed to stay afloat, some unfortunately had to close, while some thrived in the delivery world.

Guevarra's kept on doing what they do best: Making good food for everyone. They offered their usual buffet favorites for delivery, like their Pork Bellychon, Angus Beef Tapa (our all-time fave!), Beef Kare-Kare, Pancit Palabok, and Beef Kaldereta, in various sizes. They even have their own delivery riders for convenience.

As the lockdown stretched to almost two years, the people behind Guevarra's kept moving with the times, adapting to the public's needs and wants. Aside from their buffet best-sellers, they created their own version of food trends, like Lechon Angus Baka (ridiculously tender and flavorful angus beef, best enjoyed with the sweet-savory sauce). If you're eating it at home, you can enjoy it the fool-proof way with some garlic rice or go a little rogue and turn it into the best burger you'll ever make at home.

As restrictions eased, dining in slowly returned to pre-pandemic normalcy. Guevarra's decided to give us more reasons to literally get up in the morning, even on weekends. They recently started offering Breakfast Buffet on Sundays featuring morning staples, from cereals to crispy bacon to Pinoy almusal classics like Champorado, Arroz Caldo. They also put their own twist on Western faves, like Chicken & Waffles, but instead of fried chicken, you get chicken adobo. I know, it sounds weird, but trust me on this: the sweet and slightly crisp waffle (with their whipped butter and maple syrup) goes so well with the garlicky savoriness of adobo.

While their Chicken & Waffles (or pancakes) is an absolute must-try, Guevarra's take on Vigan Longganisa is a revelation! Swimming in a pool of umami-filled tomato sauce (with a healthy layer of oil for good measure), these chubby parcels of meaty goodness are tender (those pockets of fat make sure of that), packed with flavor, and will definitely have you reaching for another cup of rice. And for someone who hates bell peppers, this dish is making a compelling argument for 'em. You can enjoy Guevarra's Vigan Longganisa at their Sunday Breakfast Buffet or when you order their Sariling Sikap Box.

They also had in mind those people who were still stuck at home alone or those who are going back to the office. In 2021, they officially launched their Solo Meals, featuring a single serving of their buffet best-sellers served in a convenient bento-like container with stir-fried veggies and steamed rice. They have seafood, pork, chicken, and beef options. These meals are also perfect for meetings (Zoom or physical), parties, and even baon for roadtrips (#RevengeTravel)!

They've also gone beyond the usual buffet offers, giving diners the option to elevate their dining experience at home. Another personal favorite from Guevarra's line-up is their Spaghetti Marinara with Meatballs. Definitely different from sweet Pinoy spaghetti, the sauce is a bit more sour and tempered by the saltiness of the parmesan cheese and the savory meatballs. Pro-Tip: If you're ordering at home, keep it in the fridge because it's even better the next day (if you can keep yourself from eating all of it).

There are so many reasons to love Guevarra's, but there's nothing like their sweet selections to keep you coming back for more. When dining in, their Frozen Brazo de Mercedes (served in shot glasses) should not be missed. If you're ordering for delivery, don't forget their cakes and desserts, like their indulgent Brigadeiros and milky-chewy Kalabasa Pastillas, which are perfect for gifting or as a sweet ending to a satisfying meal.

The people of Guevarra's also made ordering a lot easier! Now you can have their signature dishes delivered to your home with just a few clicks. They also have frozen goodies so you can stock up on your favorites! Visit www.guevarras.com to place your order. They deliver daily from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.

Guevarra's is located at 387 P. Guevarra Street corner Argonne Street, San Juan City. For more updates about their latest offers, follow Guevarra's on Facebook or Instagram.

Day 10: In Manila To Catch Up With An Old Friend

Today, I woke up late but early enough to figure out my flight home before my lunch meeting with Andrea. After washing up and making a call to an EVA Air agent who confirmed that I was good to go on my originally booked flight, I was finally ready. Luckily for me, I didn’t have to hail a Grab taxi; instead, Andrea had instructed her parents’ driver to drop me off at her office building where I would meet her before walking out to grab lunch closeby. After a short drive, he dropped me off at Andrea’s parents’ company’s building (they might own the building?) in Bonifacio Global City, the business part of town that Andrea worked in, where I waited for Andrea to finish a meeting before going out for lunch. 

Her meeting ended late so I ended up having to wait for a bit. Eventually, she came down to meet me in the lobby and we were then off to lunch. We walked around the area and ended up getting lunch at Green Pastures, a healthy food place closeby. After perusing the menu, we ordered the Nose To Tail Cauliflower Bowl (Lechon Sisig) and an Umami Bowl with some healthy juices to drink. It was a good, healthy-tasting meal to have after a few days of not so great eating. We caught up over lunch about everything we had missed in each other’s lives since Stanford but couldn’t get to everything because she had to meet up with her family at the Shangri-La Hotel around the corner for an ING promo event where she was supposed to pick up her new iPhone. At the ING event, I ended up meeting her dad Stephen Sy and two of her sisters, her older sister Stephanie and her younger sister Angela. Because it took awhile to wait for the iPhone distribution process, we sat there and continued chatting until Andrea finally got it. After claiming her prize, we strolled back to her office where I dropped her off before continuing to wander around the area until her workday was over. 

I ended up walking through Bonifacio High Street, a street lined with brand-name stores and restaurants, while killing time and waiting for Andrea. I took a peek into Fully Booked Bookstore and ended up hanging out there for a while, slowly walking through each floor until I had seen all five floors, after which time I left the bookstore to continue my exploring. But around this time, the rain started to fall. Instead of walking too far from Bonifacio High Street, I just stayed in the area to avoid getting too wet with my camera on me. I strolled into and out of a couple of stores until the rain finally started to calm down and eventually stop. When the rain stopped, I jumped over to a little shopping center I had found and walked through there looking for a place to grab a drink. I didn’t find anything worth purchasing but sat around to rest before getting back up on my feet. 

By this time, it was getting close to late afternoon. With some time left, I decided to roam the streets of BGC with the goal of finding as many wall murals as possible before dinner (supposedly, over the years, they have had artists paint murals in BGC). So I started my scavenger hunt for public art murals in the area. After seeing a couple, I spotted a Chatime boba shop. Just what I was looking for! Boba was really what I was craving for my thirst so I stopped by Chatime for some boba before continuing my hunt. I walked around and through and past cars stuck in post-work traffic and saw a couple murals before it finally got dark. It was time to start walking back to meet up with Andrea. 

Once she was done with her work day, she again met me downstairs and we walked a block or so to dinner at Manam, a restaurant that was very well known and popular for its traditional Filipino comfort food. Because I didn’t know what I wanted to order, I let her do all the ordering since she had strong recommendations for some dishes. We ended up ordering House Crispy Sisig, Pancit Palabok, and a dessert of Bibingkang Ube. Even though my appetite wasn’t yet back to 100%, the food was delicious! The House Crispy Sisig was like crispy pork that was well seasoned. Pancit Palabok was crispy rice noodles soaked in egg (I think) with some mushrooms, shrimp, and squid in it. Yum! And the Bibingkang Ube was a dessert similar to warm pound cake with ube on it. A delicious dinner and a great catch-up conversation lasting close to three whole hours! Productive and fun! 

After a long time sitting on our butts and eating, we finally got up to walk it all off before getting picked up by Andrea’s driver. Once we were at home, she showed me around the entire house and brought her mom down to say hi (I met her mom ages ago on Andrea’s first day at Stanford and she still remembers me!). Before showering and packing for the airport, we fit in another hour of chatting and catching up before I REALLY had to get ready and head to the airport. But before long, I was all clean and all packed and ready to go. Sadly, the trip to Manila was very short and I didn’t get to hang out with Andrea as much as I would have liked. But the time we did spend together after 7-8 years was super productive! A very well-spent 24 hours in Manila! 

Once I had signed their guestbook and said goodbye to Andrea, her kind driver drove me to the airport and dropped me off at my terminal. And man was I lucky in getting there a bit early because the line to check into my EVA Air flight was devastatingly long. I waited and waited and waited until I finally got to the check-in desk and received my boarding tickets. Shortly after, I was through security and at a lounge, where I spent about an hour hanging out before boarding my very early morning flight to Taipei. Taiwan, here I come again! For one long, hopefully productive layover! 

5 Things I Learned Today:

1. Bonifacio Global City, also known as BGC, is a financial district in Manila that was built on an old army base that was sold to developers and real-estate people some 20-30 years ago. Over that time, the area has developed at an exponential rate and has now become the booming commercial and financial area in Manila. 

2. Focus Global Inc. is a company that specializes in marketing and distribution and is one of the leading distributors in the Philippines of local and imported products, like Tempur-Pedic and Ethan Allen brands. AND, Andrea’s family owns the company. Whoa. 

3. You can’t get free WiFi ANYWHERE in the Philippines and Singapore without a local phone number. Why do people make life so hard??

4. The Philippines were once colonized by the United States for something like 48 years after a long history of colonization by Spain. The Philippines were even occupied by Japan for a short period of time from 1942-1945 during WWII.

5. Sisig is a dish that is mostly composed of leftover pork parts that haven’t been used for other dishes that are then chopped up and cooked on a sizzling hot plate and served with rice.

Pancit Palabok is a variation of pancit, a classic dish many Filipinos enjoy. Despite the many different kinds of pancit in the country, palabok is easily recognized by certain trademark characteristics: its thin noodles and orange sauce in particular. Some say that one synonym of palabok is “salsa na malapot” –– meaning, a sauce that is gooey and viscous in nature. 👍 follow food hub para sa almusal, meryenda, tanghalian at hapunang masarap. 😋😋😋 ✅ selecta ice cream ✅ eload ✅ frozen goods ✅ bigas ✅ tapsilog, hotsilog, longsilog, tosilog, bangsilog, porksilog, chicksilog, cornsilog ✅ hamburger, cheeseburger, chicken sandwich, ham & egg, ham & cheese ✅ goto special, arroz caldo, lomi, mami, goto labot, goto egg, goto plain ✅ guisado, spaghetti, carbonara, palabok, spabok, canton ✅ crispy pata, lechon kawali, sisig, tokwa't baboy, tokwa, pork bbq 📍 National Road, Sta.

sleepykalena replied to your post “What is it about fried rice that’s so comforting? Is it an Asian thing...”

thin-cut fries (i'm super picky, they gotta be crispy on the outside and soft on the inside or no-go). butternut squash soup. pancit palabok. katsu curry. a really well-made gyudon (sorry yoshinoya, you don't make the cut)

Oooooh yeah, I forgot about fries!! Yes, thin-cut are perfect! I actually got quite addicted to In-n-Out fries, and Five Guys fries are pretty good too. Pancit palabok! That’s a staple at any family party lol

Flavourful Filipino Food That Tourists Love

ay isang sausage ng Espanya (embutido) na katulad ng isang chorizo ​​at malapit din na nauugnay sa Portuges na linguiça.

Ito ay tanyag sa mga lutuin ng ilang mga rehiyon ng Spain, Argentina, Uruguay Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Mexico at Chile. Sa Pilipinas, tinawag itong longganisa at lubos na naiiba sa daan-daang mga variant na may iba’t ibang mga panlasa at anyo ng vernacular dahil sa 144 na etno-lingguwistika na grupo sa kapuluan.

1. Adobo

Of course ito ang numero uno sa lahat ng Filipino food. Ang Adobo ay ang paglulubog ng hilaw na pagkain sa isang stock na binubuo ng ibat ibang sangkap pampalasa gaya ng mga paprika, oregano, asin, bawang, at suka upang mapanatili at mapahusay ang lasa nito.

Dekada Historical Filipino Cuisine Opens at Royale Parc Tagaytay

There’s a new restaurant in Tagaytay that takes guests on a culinary journey through Philippine history. Dekada elevates authentic Filipino dining with their interpretation of well-loved local dishes named after heroes and historical events. I had a chance to dine at Dekada during my recent stay at the Royale Parc Hotel Tagaytay (Read: Royale Parc Hotel Tagaytay Reopens With New Refreshing Design) and I was really happy to find this new Tagaytay discovery.

Dekada is the in-house Filipino restaurant of Royale Parc Hotel, which is located along the main Tagaytay-Nasugbu highway along the popular Tagaytay ridge. It is open daily from 7am to 10pm and is available for both hotel and walk-in guests. I knew the name sounded familiar because apparently, they have another branch located in Glorietta, Makati, but the gentle breeze and the Tagaytay weather makes this experience much more memorable.

Dekada is actually a franchised brand from the same group that operates SumoSam restaurant. Here, classic and contemporary tastes merge well together. The restaurant’s interior features traditional and modern elements – wood and capiz create a nostalgic atmosphere while industrial finishes and pop artworks of Filipino heroes give it a touch of the present. 

Aside from the ambience, its location also plays a role in its culinary offerings. As Tagaytay is known for its abundance of local produce, guests can expect to feast on freshly prepared dishes made with ingredients that came straight from the local market.

Filipino pride and history is prevalent throughout the restaurant, so diners really get a sense of being part of Philippine pop culture and tradition.

A take out counter is also available for those who want to get some pastries to bring back to Manila or some beverages on the go.

Guests staying at Royale Parc Tagaytay have their complimentary buffet breakfast here at Dekada. There’s a wide selection of breakfast favorites like tocino, sausages, eggs, chicken adobo, fruits and juices.

I enjoyed my breakfast at Dekada, but we will also be having our lunch here later, so I made sure I still had space for more. I went back to my room to relax the rest of the morning and before I knew it, it was time for lunch!

Dekada’s walk down Philippine history starts with Lumpiang Palabok – a bite-sized palabok wrapped in rice paper with grilled mahi-mahi. This is inspired by Antonio Pigafetta’s first account of the Spaniards’ visit to the Philippines when they were served roast mahi-mahi with rice wrapped in leaves. Fresh greens are also abundant in the highland city – and Dekada makes use of these through their “Ensaladas de Alianza” which refer to the first alliances of the Filipinos and Spaniards, inspired by the best regional flavors. The Legazpi (Sinuglaw Salad), hails from Cebu and Davao with its tanigue and smoked liempo, finished off with Davao’s pomelo and sinamak vinaigrette, a famous spiced vinegar from Iloilo.

Homenajes Arroz or Rice Tributes refer to the practice of offering rice to God as a token of gratitude for a good harvest, and Dekada’s rice options go beyond the usual with the Benedictino (Aligue and Alimasag fried rice), Franciscano (Dilis Rice), Dominicano (Adobo Rice), and Agustino (Bagoong Rice).

Dekada’s main dishes involve a short history lesson on the Sons of the Revolution which includes Del Pilar (chicken inasal), Aguinaldo (twice-cooked adobo), and Pinoy-style oven-roasted chicken named Ponce. Our special media lunch was served buffet style so we also got to try the General Chicken and Lechon Manok.

The Hukbalahan or pinakbet is another Filipino favorite that is part of our culinary tradition.

I really like the Tydings-McDuffie which had jumbo boneless bangus in chili garlic with soy glaze and onions. 

You can also order the Crispy Pla Pla with its crunchy fillets dipped in toyo-mansi, or try the Kare Kareng Bagnet which is another recommended dish, 

But the main highlight at our Dekada lunch was the sizzling bulalo steak named after National Hero Jose Rizal. This is made with Tagaytay’s freshest beef resulting in a very tender and flavorful steak dish.

All-day merienda fares like Pancit Palabok, Pancit Bihon, tokwa’t baboy, okoy, and palitaw are also available. So if you want to experience authentic Filipino dining that goes beyond the plate, visit Dekada Historic Filipino Cuisine at Royale Parc Tagaytay and enjoy a timeless culinary journey around the Philippines.

When it comes to Filipino food, there are several options in northern New Jersey. Our favorite place may be a small joint in Bergenfield or the addicting sisig at Mama Fina’s, but for simple, comforting Filipino grub we head to Max’s Restaurant in Bloomfield.

Known for their special chicken recipe that became an instant favorite among American Troops stationed in Quezon City after World War II, Max’s Restaurant’s popularity grew and became known as “The House That Fried Chicken Built.” You can get a whole or half order of it.

To drink, I like the refreshing Calamansi Juice. They also have a blended drink of the Philippine lime with mango juice called Calamango Juice.

A couple favorites are the Lumpia Shanghai (Filipino egg roll) and Pancit Palabok –  rice noodles in a shrimp, squid, and ground pork sauce garnished with garlic bits, ground pork cracklings, green onions, and a sliced boiled egg.

The Lechon Kawali Sisig is a sizzling plate of crispy pork belly mixed with Max’s savory sauce.

Always gotta have some Garlic Rice…or white rice…any rice.

Other dishes we’ve tried are the Miki Bihon, a mix of egg and rice noodles with vegetables, pork, chicken, and shrimp. As well as the Nilagang Baka, a beef soup with beef shank and ribs, greens, potatoes, and peppercorn.

The Kare-Kare is a classic dish of beef and oxtail with vegetables simmered in a thick peanut sauce. Don’t forget the bagoong (shrimp paste).

During our last visit, they had Batangas Lomi, a hearty noodle soup with egg, shrimp, pork belly, fish cake, and fried squid. It was my first time having it.

For dessert, the Turon with Coconut Jam is a yummy choice. Banana is rolled in a spring roll wrapper, deep-fried, and drizzled with coconut jam.

A classic dessert would be the Halo Halo which translates to “mix, mix”. It’s a glass of various tropical fruit and jellies with milk and shaved ice topped with ube (purple yam) ice cream and flan (caramel custard). Mix it all up and enjoy. It’s especially refreshing during hot Summer days.

For a global chain, Max’s casual restaurant serves some solid Pinoy eats and the service is always pleasant. Our Filipino food cravings have been happily satisfied.
