I saw many videos about how good this place was for food which gave me good expectations for the food.
I went to this place on a chilly Saturday and it was so busy I couldn't sit in I had to order take out. They allowed me to place the order and return to pay. They also allowed me to pay by card as I was a little worried since it was an inside market place. What I ordered was tapsilog , picadillo and chicken Adobo.
Regarding the food I had the chicken adobo first, it was so good I told my partner that I would give it a 9/10 and that I would live off this if I had the opportunity. The reason for the high rating is that when I ate it the chicken was soft and cooked just right and the rice was cooked to perfection. was so good, nice and delicious that I was considering to.
My second one was the picadillo and what it contained was rice and philippino style chilli. When I ate it I felt like I was eating an alternative to chilli con carne which I LOVE. However, only because I had the famous adobo first I told my partner that I would give it an 8/10 only but it was very close.
My final dish was the tapsilog, regarding this my partner told me something very interesting about this dish that it was considered to be an everyday breakfast and I was quite surprised. However, what it contained was a couple stripes of beef with some rice, a sunny side up egg and salad to top it off. When I ate it the food was good but I am a person that doesn't like dry food and when I saw it I thought it was dry but I gave it a chance and it was very good considering it didn't contain any sauce.

Read moreJust amazing, we happily bumped into this fabulous place when exploring Ashton market. We had a feeling someone had mentioned it in a positive way, the smells coming from the open kitchen were delicious and we were lucky enough to be passing when a table freed up. So the planets seemed to have aligned, and we were in for a treat.
The authentic and most delicious Adobo chicken and the Tapsilog Beef were sublime. The service was nothing short of welcoming and can only be compared to being welcomed into someones home.
Salamat, we will definitely be...
Read moreI've walked past this little eatery in Ashton Market Hall lots of times, but today I decided to give it a try. I opted for the Chicken Adobo and I'm glad I did. The chicken reminded me of my mum's slow-cooked casserole dish because the chicken just fell apart and melted in my mouth. I asked for the spicy version. It was served on a bed of perfectly cooked saffron rice and with a freshly prepared side salad. Absolutely delicious! The portion size was spot on for a lunch and it only cost a fiver. Highly...
