PINO

A good friend once invited me for a dinner at Pino because there'll be a Game of Thrones Season-ender viewing party. I agreed to go with her, not because I am a fan of Game of Thrones (well, during that time), but because I am really curious about the great reviews about their food and of course, because it's her treat. :P 

I ordered their best-seller, Kare-Kareng Bagnet! Lo and behold, it was the best Kare-Kare and Bagnet I ever had! I may have struggled eating my meal because it dark due to GoT viewing, but I didn't mind because it tastes good! After that night, I told my friend that I would definitely go back to this place and bring more of my/our friends. And that being said, here's one of our visits. 

For first timers, I would recommend my all time favorite, Tofu Balls and Mini Sisig Tacos! (I'm already starving at the moment...)

Tofu Balls (Php 165.00)*

Mashed tofu stuffed with lots of cheese and served with special dip! 

Mini Sisig Tacos (Php 225.00)*

Tacos with pork sisig, lettuce, tomato salsa and cheese inside!

Looking good together! <3 font="">

And for the main dish, of course, I would TOTALLY recommend Kare-Kareng Bagnet!

Kare-Kareng Bagnet 

Single Serving (Php 255.00)*Family Serving (Php 565.00)*

Combined Ilokano's famous Bagnet and 

one of the All-Time-Favorite Filipino dish, Kare-Kare!

Also served with Bagoong rice and Bagoong on the side.
