THOU SHALL NOT EAT RICE ON WEEKDAYS!
~ yes.. this has been my motto for the last 3 weeks.
I'm happy that I somehow managed to maintain my weight for almost 9 months now I guess. From 150lbs down to 123lbs..not bad! Actually, I used to weigh only 105bls so I've been seriously thinking of dieting again!
But you see... it's difficult to go on a diet when you have a food blog to maintain and friends who are as passionate with food as you are! So i guess for me, what I do now is I starve myself on weekdays then I
indulge on weekends! Bwahahah (evil laugh)

Last Friday I was surprised to know that for the 1st time, I didn't have any concrete plans for the
weekend so I thought I wanted to review another resto. Good thing when I woke up yesterday, I got a
text message from Mich (Frank's bestestfriend) telling me to join her and her sister  on a foodtrip to a Shawarma hub near my house! I felt excited ofcourse! I always enjoy foodtripping with mareng Mich!

So for this week's entry, I'm gonna reveal yet another secret food mecca and this time, it's really near my house (God I'm so lucky!)... introduced by buddy Frank (thanks to you for introducing me to this place) a few months ago, located near the gate of Lagro Subdivision is where you'll find this Persian food joint which is gaining rapid popularity...it's called
Try Mo, Shawarma Co. Atbp.

 Woaahhhh..
Who could ever resist these dishes?! The hell with dieting!!!I'll just starve myself again next week!! ahahaha!

Here are the dishes which we ordered....

As you can see they serve a variety of meats.. what I really like about it is that unlike other shawarma joints, their beef is really lean and easy to chew and very tasty ofcourse!


Sizzling Shawarma (100php) - finely chopped lean beef with tomatoes, onions, topped with bits of pita and fresh egg completes this persian version of our national pulutan the "sisig." Great eaten with rice!
I believe this is their signature dish since I think this is the only place which serves shawarma on a sizzling plate.

Special Shawarma with Cheese (65php)-
Perhaps their best seller! For me it's currently the best
and most affordable shawarma. Definitely worth every cent!

I see people ordering at least 2 servings.. as for me, I'm ok with one. Very filling indeed!

 Aside from their Shawarmas, you should also try out their
Barbeques! They only cost around 7-15pesos I think! So cheap yet so good! You may choose from a variety of pork and chicken innards from pork liver to intestines.. name it,you got it!













I had the chance to talk with the crew. They were really nice. They even allowed me to take pictures of them while they prepare the Shawarmas...

Here's the menu list.. really affordable!

They use fresh well done lean beef..

Meet the veggies.. Sliced white onions, tomatoes and cucumbers..

Step 1. Heat the pita then add the veggies..



















Step 2.  Add lots of lean meat and cheese!! Yummers!!

Step 3. Wrap it tight then serve immediately! 

I love it!

To convince you more on how we enjoyed this experience so much.. here are the rests of the photos...

Here's Mich before her 1st bite....

Mich enjoying her BBQ! Is she eating the stick? I hope not!

 Mich and I eating like there's no tomorrow...

Meet Mich's younger sister Glyf. It's her 1st time to visit this place!

There is no doubt that this girl is enjoying every bit of it!

 A photo of Glyf and yours truly.

The 2 lovely sisters!!

"Lord give me strength!I can do it. I have to eat all of it!" ahahahaha

 It tastes even better with garlic and hot sauce!

Badeth the new Shawarma endorser!

This is me the day after my visit with Mich. Notice my hair got shorter! hehhehehe
Badeth and I just had a serious craving so we decided to hit Lagro before heading
home.

Pardon me for the messy plate.. I'm better with chopsticks!

Burp!

Too bad we were not able to finish the Sizzling Shawarma. huhuhu

I couldn't stand up! Ouch!!!  We're just too full! I can't believe it!!

This experience was indeed wicked!! This week,1 point for food and 0 for man! Hmmp! I will definitely visit this place again and again!

Thank YOu Mich and Glyf for joing me in this nice experience!! 

Try Mo, Shawarma Co. hmmm nice name! Tried it!! Check!
Now I believe it's your turn!!!!

See you all next week for yet another mouthwatering review!!

Ciao!!

OG's ... Digestive Tracts For Digestive Tracts!!!

Allow us to share to you our favorite local barbecue stand.....Og's!!! It's located at the corner of Road 2 and Road 8 in PAG-ASA, Quezon City!

I actually asked this guy on the picture about the name of the stand... he said, " I don't really know!" Hahahaha so I told him that most of our friends call it Og's. Why? Well, according to the local legend, it used to be operated buy a guy named ... yeah you guessed it right!!... OG!!!

There are countless barbecue restaurants and alley stands scattered all over the nation.. each one of them proud about their so-called "secret" recipe and some even claim to have the best tasting one..... personally for me, the reason why I've decided to pick Og's is because of its taste ofcourse, price and lastly, it's staying power....

Og's has been grilling for a loooooonnnngggg time!!!

It has already cultivated quite a following...

Lots of people regularly flock this place to get a hold of these highly addictive barbecue sticks. We even have a friend who actually drives from Makati to Quezon City just to grab some tender juicy sticks of pork intestines from Og's. Kuya Je would usually buy from Og's whenever we would have a drinking party at the house. We believe he's the ultimate foodie! hehehe We always look forward to his recommendations for we know that if it's recommend by him, it must be good!!

Aside from the traditional Pork Barbecue, they also have ....

1. Chicken Neck

2. Chicken Feet

3. Chicken Intestines or "Isaw"

4. Pork Ears

5. Pork Skin

6. Pork Fat

7. Pork Intestines

8. Hotdogs

I can't really remember all the prices but they just cost around 10-15 pesos per stick!

So affordable!

My personal favorites include their pork barbecue and ultra delicious melts in your mouth pork intestines! Grilled to perfection... then finally dipped in some seasoned vinegar!!! YYUUUMMM!!!! I can actually hear my resident tummy worms begging for it! hahaha

Others may think of these as exotic, dirty or just plain bizarre.... I say, you should try it for yourself when you reach the Philippine shores....

Og's remains to be a small and simple corner street food stand up to these days, but I'm sure it has satisfied millions of hungry stomachs! Nothing beats a very good recipe and a whole lot of dedication!!

I hope that Og's will keep the flame burning for a long long time!!!!

Thank you for reading and see ya'all next week!!
