Chowking's Orange Chicken

No, the Orange Chicken is not a mascot!! Chowking's Orange Chicken is a new offering by Chowking's Menu. Chowking's Orange Chicken is available in three sets: the rice chow meal with a generous portion of orange chicken and rice at P69; lauriat, which includes crispy noodles, chicharap and buchi at P99; and salo-salo set for sharing at P125.

Up Close with the Orange Chicken

I’m glad that Chowking came out with their Orange Chicken, cause I'm also a chicken addict! The Orange Chicken was breaded and fried Chicken strips together with a sweet orange-y sauce topped to it. I ended up mixing it with the rice which made the awesome Orange Chicken more Oh-some!

Big Eats at Bigby's Cafe & Restaurant

Why Big Eats at Bigby's Cafe & Restaurant? Cause they serve BIG, seriously! If you have a big appetite and probably a big stomach capacity then this place (Bigby's Cafe and Restaurant) is for you!


I finally spent my Bigby's GC (Gift Certificate) that I got almost a year ago. This time I treated 2 of my YMA-mates Janna and Lulurdie for a chow-down at Bigby's SM City Cebu - Northwing.

Cellphone: "Beepx2" ; Janna: "Wut..?" ; Lulurdie: "Too much Food..."

This is the Fisherman's Catch - Seafood plate

Another view of Fisherman's Catch which is good for 4 people

The Fisherman's Catch plate contains a tortilla-crusted dory fish, squiggly rings and two sticks of pre-grilled boomerang shrimps. This is served with rice as well.

Triple Crunch Platter

Another plate from the menu that we ordered was the Triple Crunch Platter which was supposedly good for (4). If my memory serves me right the platter is a combination of tic-tac-rols, nachos, and sweet onion loops. While eating, Bigby's interior design and ambiance makes the whole experience homey as well. See bellow:

Here's a look of the place's Cool, homey environment and lighting

Interior Design and awesome Lighting fixtures

So if you read above and based from what we ordered, 3 people ordered food good for 8 people, so go figure!! HAHAHAHA Hopefully, there will be more Big Eats at Bigby's Cafe & Restaurant next time so I can devour more of there sumptuous palate!

Tacos + Quesadillas

The first encounter of mexican food that I had is with the Quesadilla and the Taco. I remember munching on these when I was still in High school. The "taco" is a traditional Mexican dish composed of a corn or wheat tortilla folded or rolled around a filling. It is generally eaten without utensils though.

I have eaten the variation which has some lettuce, tomatoes, beef and a soft shell wheat/corn tortilla. The fillings of a taco has multiple varieties ranging from beef, chicken, seafood, vegetables and cheese, allowing for great versatility and variety.



For the Quesadilla, I like it since its CHEESY!! The Quesadilla is a Mexican food made primarily of cheese inside a folded corn or wheat tortilla and cooked until the cheese melts. While cheese is the most common filling, other ingredients are also used in traditional Mexican quesadillas, including cooked vegetables, mushrooms, and meat. Can't wait to eat more Tacos and Quesadillas or even other types of Mexican food!
