i prefer eating at home than eating out because the latter is much too expensive than eating in the comfort of your home. but when we do eat out, its KFC (i so love their gravy), Jollibee (their spaghetti is the best) or Chowking (their variety of Lauriat meals never fails to make me full) for fastfood, Pizza Hut or Yellow Cab for pizza house (depending on who has less customers at the time i feel the craving for pizza) and Bagoong Club Resto (BCR) located in Morato for restaurant. BCR has the best-tasting okoy and bulalo with munggo, plus of course, their bagoong tastes really, really great. gawd, i'm getting hungry
what about you? where do you go to when you eat out and why? care to share some of your favorite food in those places?

jollibee - chickenjoy, cheezy bacon mushroom
mcdonalds - fries, nuggets
KFC - coleslaw, gravy
Pizza hut - stuffed crust pizza
shakeys - mojos.

Like you I also prefer eating at home but time when I really am lazy we call deliveries or dine outside.
for fastfood, we always opt for Jollibee as the kids love it there and I also love burger steak and hubby too.
for Pizza, nothing beats yellow cab, have I told you my oldest son loves it so much that he knows their delivery hotline in eastwood.
for restaurants, they love max's. pancake, and oyster boy but my favorite is Mister choi and they also love ra rai ken.
never been to Bagoong club resto though so maybe we will try that one sometime..
when we go to tagaytay there is always one place that we eat, Leslie's
and then when we go North, we always stop by at Isdaan in Tarlac, I am sure you often pass it by.

Eversince i started working as a mystery shopper... my dining out has been limited to only two fastfood restaurants... because that way... i get to eat for free and be paid for doing that... but i do go to Kenny Rogers and Tokyo Tokyo from time to time... just to have a different taste in food...

ohh..so the mystery shopper thing is a legit one? i always get invitations in my inbox, but i always label it as spam. i never thought it was a legit work, never bothered to find out if it was. anyways, Tokyo Tokyo is a good place to eat too. I have eaten twice, when I had the urge to try something Japanese. food's great

I like eating out at McDonalds as there is so many choices there that I like.
First is the bacon double cheese burger and then the McChicken and the fillet of fish.
I love their fries and the egg McMuffin in the morning is my favorite breakfast with a hash brown and a cup of coffee.
If I had my choice and money to afford it I would eat at McDonalds every day of the week for breakfast, lunch and supper.
Coke and fries is really a good late night snack too.
That's what I like!Crocket.

oh i wouldn't be so keen on that. the menu items on any fast food is not good for everyday consumption, i think. lots of fats and other unhealthy substances. once in a while would be okay though. i loooove their bacon double cheese burger!! oh! watch my drool!

When I was in college our hangout place was KFC. We also loved their gravy as most people do. It's delicious and very tasty. But like you, I prefer to eat at my house in our balcony particularly because it's more comfortable and the you could relax as well. I usually cook Bulalo during my off and my sister and my boyfriend would always clean the balcony because they love to eat out there in the open. ^^,

That depends on who you ask. My hubby likes greek food. His favorite restaurant is called Olympias. He likes the flaming cheese appetizer. My daughter would probably say O'Charleys. if you ask her why she'd say "because kids eat free" I am good with Pizza takeout.

I love KFCs gravy too, I think it has to be the best ever gravy I have tasted! I like KFC as a whole although I do find that their chicken can be quite salty at times, the chips though are very nice. I have only ever been to pizza hut once, but I think they are great value for money, and it is great how they wrap leftovers up to fetch home. I think my favourite fast food place still has to be McDonalds though, somehow no matter where I go I always come back to McDonalds.

hehe i am also the type to eat out once in a while. I also go to KFC :P every tuesdays cuz of the specials. I would also go to other fancy restaurants...I would go there at lunch time though when the price will be cheaper. It could be Shabu Shabu which is japanese fondue, Cafe etranger when I can`t decide...the choices over there is impressive, Pho restaurants as well :)

Yes, I prefer eating at home also, its cheaper and you can eat healthier at home. I love going to Arby's, I love their toasted sub sandwhiches, my favorite is the turkey, bacon club sandwhich, its just the right size too. Another place I like is a diner called The Boomerang, they just have regular diner food there, but their hamburgers are the best, they use real beef not those soy patties. There is a Mexican Restaurant we go to called Ted's Escondido, the food there is great, its a hard place to get in to on the weekends unless you get there early, then you don't have to wait that long, but its really good, we like just about any Mexican Restaurant, another place is called Los Cabos, its great too, I like their enchiladas. Oh man, I am getting hungry and its lunchtime here, I may just go to one of these places for lunch today...lol.

Like you, I prefer eating at home, just like you said, it was quite more cheaper and got the comfort of your home. However, when I do dine out, my favorite places KFC - really love their chicken; Pizza Hut - their cheesy pop pizza; Sbarro - love their big pizza and bake ziti;Kenny Rogers - love their meal especially roasted chicken and muffin; Max's Restaurant -love their meals particularly their BBQ meal and Kare-Kare and Dampa - love this place, fresh seafood and you can ask them to cook whatever you like out of the seafood that you bought on the "paluto" restaurant. Hehe, these are the places I usually go to when I'm dining out especially with my family.

I do not get a chance to eat out very much. But when I do I love to eat chinese food. Then next would be KFC (I also like their gravy). My next choice would be a small restaurant here in my town called Macy's. They make good pizza and prime rib. As for fast food I like A&W hamburgers, especially their Mozza burgers.

I've never heard of BCR because I don't go to Morato. It's so hard to find parking and I always get lost anyway. But I'm really curious about the place! Is it cheap? My favorite eat out place is at Omakase along libis. They have a branch in Morato as well but I've never been there. Omakase serves some of the best Japanese rice rolls ever! And though prices have gone up since last year, the quality of the food is still the same, if not better!

for the taste of the food in their menu, the price is just right. you'd want to go to morato when it's lunchtime. at night, the restos are filled up and yes, it's really hard to find parking space, especially on a friday.

did you hear me laughing? i guess not no. seriously. why would i laugh? street food tastes great (provided you trust that it's cleanly made) when i was in high school and college me and my friends used to have a food trip outside the school because that's where the manong vendors are
