I LOOOOVE rice. Being Asian, rice is our staple food. And I honestly can’t imagine life without it ;). I can maybe go a few days or even a week without it.. But once I have a craving for it, I eat it like there is no tomorrow!!
I’ve been craving for rice lately. And I’ve been eating a lot of it. From buttered rice to plain rice with a good serving of sinigang or sinangag (garlic rice) with hotdogs and spam.
Today, I had the urge for some fried rice. With leftover crab flakes, aligue (crab fat) and tinapa (smoked fish), we came up with our own homemade seafood fried rice. I finished half of this bowl ooopsss
Shi Lin is a Taiwanese (we were politely corrected by the waiter that they are a Taiwanese and not a Chinese restaurant) restaurant that I’ve read about in a blog I follow. JodiesDaddy and I have been meaning to try it out (it was also highly recommended by friends of ours), but we hardly go to the mall where it is located.
Over the weekend, we were meeting a friend in the area and luckily I remembered Shi Lin when we were thinking of a place to eat at.
We were not disappointed! At first we were skeptical because it reminded us a restaurant we tried but did not enjoy. The menu looked similar. But we were informed that they weren’t the same.
We loved every dish that we had. But my personal favorite was the Shrimp and Pork Shaomai. It’s not your regular siomai. It was like a siomai and xiao long bao rolled into one dimsum, as it had soup in it! Really yummy!
I really hope we have another excuse to visit the area, because there are still lots in the menu I am dying to try!
Vegetable Fried Rice from Eat Well. I think this is value for money. Only P55.00 (less than $2.00).
