Lunch at Kuya J Restaurant

We were out yesterday because my husband needs to renew his passport. The line was long but fortunately, the process did not take that long. My husband finished everything in less than an hour. Yey! Off we went home, it was time for lunch and I suggested that we will just eat at Southwoods Mall.

A few months ago, my son told me “Mommy, I’m the only one in the classroom na di pa nakapunta sa Southwoods Mall”. Waah! #FOMO naman ang anak ko. Southwoods Mall is the new mall that is near in our place kasi pero hindi pa niya napupuntahan, but in my mind, it will not make him less as a person kung hindi pa siya makapunta dun agad. 

So after 7 months, he finally visited the mall. We’re choosing between Pepper Lunch and Hukad, we ate at Hukad restaurant when we were in Cebu and now, open na yung branch nila sa Southwoods Mall.  Then we saw Kuya J restaurant and we wanted to try their new dessert. 

We’re the first customers so sa isip-isip ko, mabilis na yung pagserve ng food. I liked their menu, magazine type, of course, crush ko din yung cover. Hehehe! I ordered Pork BBQ Rice P165, Bicol Express P280, Rice at P45 each, Kuya J Saba Halo Halo Espesyal P109 and Ice Tea Pitcher P125. It took them 30 minutes to serve our order, same with other branches that we have tried. Wala na yatang ibibilis ang pagserve nila.

The Pork BBQ is good and the Bicol Express is really spicy, sa sobrang spicy niya hindi namin naubos. I tried other Bicol Express in other restaurant and carry naman ang spiciness but Kuya J' version is really spicy for my taste. I was a little bit disappointed with Kuya J Saba Halo Halo Espesyal, kasi wala na nga sago, hindi man lang dinagdagan yung saba. Ang layo niya sa picture so I find it expensive for P109. Next time, I will just order Halo-halo. 

As of this writing, they only accept cash payments. After our lunch, we dropped by at Mumuso.
