So you're at home, driving around or whatever then suddenly you start craving for Dimsum. Where do you go? Of course you go to causeway. Why? you might ask well the reason is you'll get dimsum that tastes good, its VERY VERY affordable and its got a pretty good ambiance.

Honestly as a Chinese man this isn't the most authentic dimsum I've tasted here in the Philippines but I can vouch for it in the taste department, its pretty good. The dimsum is flavorful, the dimsum wrappers have a nice consistency and the fillings have just the right amount of moistness and also the right texture. Causeway's food items do taste good as well but there are other Chinese restaurants that can surpass them in that department.

Price as you will see from the products we ordered below is extremely affordable. You should even go at their off peak hours they sell dimsum at a discounted rate.

Overall the restaurant's pretty much the jack of all trades type of thing. Food tastes good, is affordable and is presentable. Sadly though none of them are stellar but being good at everything is definitely a plus for them.

Try this out if you love tofu. The flavors are wonderful.

So I was waiting for my friend around the Tomas Morato Area for a couple of hours so I decided to go take a bite first at David's Teahouse to pass the time. I couldn't pass up the opportunity anyway because me and this restaurant go way back. I used to treat myself and my buddies to a meal here of the classic holy triumvirate of Chinese food (salt and pepper squid, sweet and sour pork and lemon chicken) after exams when i was still in high school. Sadly the greenhills branch closed down when they renovated what was then Virramall and I haven't eaten in David's Teahouse for about 7 years. So I went in fingers crossed that their quality didn't degrade which happens often in the Philippines when you become an established restaurant that has been around for more than 5 years. I apologize for the lousy pictures, cellphone camera.

Well after the 7 year wait here we go

David's Teahouse initial set up, besides the obviously missing chop sticks its pretty standard for a Philippine teahouse. House tea is fine, nothing that rocks your socks though.

Today was Chinese food day...me and my friends were sick of Mien San and North Park...so we decided to go with a old favorite....MANN HANN!

Mann Hann has been around for AGES!!!! Started out as a grocery store, it slowly introduced Chinese take-outs, and as its popularity increased...so did the need to open a Chinese restaurant.

We visited the newly renovated branch located in J. Abad, and I was IMPRESSED!!!

Beautiful design..modern...exciting...and definitely refreshing.

First and Foremost, i would like to apologize for the crappy pics.

The thing is, my mom just took this home after work, so the food is kinda

messy already.

Anyways, here it is! One of my favorite Taiwan noodle houses in the Philippines.

If you are looking for Taiwanese food, there is no comparison. Mien San is the

only legit Taiwanese restaurant in the Philippines.

Although i would order: Taiwan beef noodle, Fried Onion Pancake, and Pork Chop rice,

As i said, my mom took these home, so i had no choice on what to order. So for now, i will review:

Fried Siopao- this tastes just like the one in Shilin Night Market!!! It tastes awesomely good and awesomely authentic! Its basically fried bola-bola siopao with a hint of chinese wine.

Kowloon West :@) :@)

Kowloon West
Kowloon West has several branches in metro manila (San Juan, Libis, Greenbelt, West Ave.)
The one I went to is in Libis, its across Eastwood city, near Jolibee. If you want info. on the location of the others, just post a comment, and ill do my best to help you out.
If you are anything like me, then I'm pretty sure, u make a habit of late night escapades in search for a place to pigout and have a late night snack.


Kowloon West has been around for ages. This place is well known for its cheap Chinese Dimsum and Mami's...okay fine, they're just known for their siopao. (the rest aren't really the best tasting, in fact, im not even going to put a review on them)


But nevertheless, its definitely value for your money, and the siopao is to die for!!!
