Having seen the best Philadelphia cheese steaks in the US on Food Paradise, I have been obsessing to sink my teeth in Philly’s finest.
Of course economic and healthwise, I cannot travel abroad so I am in search for local version of this mouthwatering treat.
So when I learned about Kenny’s Philly Cheese Steak, I compulsively led my way to a branch near the office on Quezon Ave. cor. Examiner St.
For P169.00 it is a bit pricey but I just told myself that it is the time of the month to reward myself. It’s pay day!
Another treat is that, they have a promo until May 31st where you could get 50% off the price of the next sandwhich that you will order.
I don’t know if it was really the weather (it was 4:00 p.m.) but as I waited for them to serve my sandwhich (which took about 10 minutes that seemed like eternal) I was sweating so hard. You could hardly feel the a/c.
It is my first time to try this sandwich so I have nothing to compare it to but one thing is for sure, I enjoyed it! I can tell that it was freshly prepared. It is not too salty and it is made in whole wheat bun which makes it more healthy. I wonder why it is not included in their healthy meals selections.

After hitting the gym and before going to PC Live, I felt a little hypoglycemic.
So I decided to get a sugar fix a Mr. Choi at Walter Mart North Edsa.
I ordered mushroom fried rice and my all time fave chicken feet. I was surprised that the mushroom fried rice serves 2 to 3 persons, too bad I did not care to ask.
While eating, I did not feel that I was dining at a Chinese restaurant, the food tastes bland and you could tell that they were not freshly prepared as if they were just reheated.
Although they serve complementary tea, they do not have freshly squeezed lemonade or freshly made iced tea which makes my dining experience worse.
