Nation Bar and Grill

You know you're getting old when loud music and too much crowd starts to get in your nerves. That's why most of the famous bars never really appealed to me. You can't even go to the washroom without bumping into someone and you're not even drunk.

So when we found this neat place at Scout Boromeo, Quezon City, it became our regular hangout. The place is called Nation Bar and Grill. Open space, not too crowded, good food and a band playing while you chit chat with friends. Now that's my kind of scene.

 Thursday Band



 You should try going on a Monday night, the vocalist sounds like Chito Miranda but the other bands are just as good. Yep I told you we've been going here a lot XD.

The Menu




I don't really drink much. I just like hanging out with friends. So a bar with good food and some cocktails fits my criteria perfectly. The price here is affordable and the serving is just right.

 The group's favorite. Baked Fish Fillet. This is reason enough for us to go back to this place ^_^

 Dynamite. Ground meat wrapped in green chili and spring roll wrapper then deep fried.

 Can you guess what this is? It's Sisig Rice!!! XD I need not say more XD

 My favorite drink. Mocha Girl. :D

They have beer buckets too.

Cheers! :)

Surf Burger: Malolos Branch

My sister's been wanting to try this place for a while now. So hey why not. Nope not La Familia the one behind that.. Surf Burger Bar XD.

Surf Burger Bar is located near the crossing at Malolos City, near La Familia.



The interior was nice actually. I was expecting to see something else when we got inside but I don't know, something doesn't feel right. Maybe because the place was setup more like a bar, but when we went there I noticed people go there to eat, not to drink. Anyway.. Here's what's on the menu.




We tried their beer bacon burger and a couple of drinks.
Beer Bacon Burger
The burger was actually good.

Mocha Shake
No alcohol. Tastes like regular fraps.

Bailey's Rocky Road
Tastes like ice cream. Too sweet for me. I was expecting something like a mud slide but nope just ice cream. 

The service is what actually ticked me off. I don't know if we looked liked beggars but hey the moment we walked in, we were customers! Surprise! Surprise! Nobody came to our attention so we got our own menu from the bar. Okay that's fine. But every time I try to get a waiters attention to order, or to ask for water or to pay the bill, I felt invisible. I had to stop one which came our way every time single time. There weren't even that much customers to attend to. (-_-)

Would I go back? Meh.. I would probably order some burgers for take out and that's it. (>_<)
Really, I tried to write a nice review, but every time I remember their service... Moving on.. Their burgers were good and the place looks nice. XD

Señora Carmen's Resto Garden

My sister and I tagged along our aunt's night out with friends, then my little sister wanted to come too.. and my grandmother. So a night out with friends turned into a family dinner XD.
Señora Carmen's is located near Centro Escolar University at Malolos City. The ambiance was nice and open and there was a band playing songs which you can request or you can even jam with them.. I think.. XD



I really like the ambiance but they should probably do something about the "tagasaw/s".

The food was good and affordable. Ranging from PHP100-200 per dish for sharing or solo plates for less than PHP100. If you want to try something different, something authentic and something good, this is the place to go. I like the variety of their menu. Sorry I didn't take a picture of their menu. Anyway here's what we ordered.
Tuna Sashimi PHP120
It was frozen when they served it but after a couple of minutes it started to thaw.

Adobong Kambing

Kalderetang Kambing

Kare-Kare

Spareribs Salad
This is new to me. Tastes like well yeah salad but warm salad.

Hakaw

Shark's fin

Cheese Sticks
Lots of cheese in there

Rice

We also ordered a pitcher of ice tea and a bucket of san mig apple. Our bill was only around PHP1800 pretty cheap huh? I just wish they serve cocktails too. (>_<)

The staff were friendly and nice and very accommodating. What else can I say? I love this place! (though I'm probably biased because they have tuna sashimi XD) Will I go back? Definitely YES! (^_^)
