Cravings satisfied

I know... I owe you guys some good food and a little bit of story-telling.

I haven't been blogging because work has taken over my life... Like literally, I just go home to take a bath, sleep a little, and then off to work again.

Let me start with what we ate a couple of weeks ago.  Mom was craving pizza, but the one with vegetables in it and "you fold it".  In Pampanga, you have alot of choices, aside from your usual "Dear Darla" pizza.

So, since it was my anniversary, fifth year as managing editor (imagine that!) i told my mom and sister that it'll be my treat.

We went first to a bridal fair.  Coincidentally, my sister's suppliers kept on asking if i'm getting married next. Oh dear! I just came there to say hi and eat...

We're all not familiar with SM Clark, so when we saw New York Supreme, we decided, why not? I honestly just want one of their Zippolis (round doughnuts).

But we're so hungry so we ordered their pizza roll

Pizza Roll

This was really satisfying.  We usually order 2 of these when we're with our dad, but since it's just us girls, we managed to eat just one... Diet eh?!

If you're from Pampanga, don't compare this to 'C, because they're 2 different entities. I mean, 'C's panizza is really out of this world.  Just think of New York Supreme's pizza roll as the poor man's version of the real thing.

We love the freshness of the Alfalfa sprouts and the arugula.  I honestly wanted more, of the alfalfa sprouts but that would mean eating more than 3 slices of the pizza...haist! I don't like the concept of diet... :)

then we also had

Seafood Pasta

I think I was the only one who appreciated this dish, except for my mom who devoured the twisted garlic bread.

My sister chose to focus on the pizza and the chicken... she had 1/3 of the pasta, and i had the rest.  It was creamy, but not too overpowering.  The sauce was tangy, sweet, playful in the mouth. 

Buffalo wings

Buffalo Wings

Pardon my fingers, was just trying to be artsy.  These were not spicy at all.  I mean maybe my tolerance for spicy food is different, but haller!!!Buffalo wings... I just want something spicy...but again, they're not bad...not bad at all.

The fries were bland though.  I had to put salt and pepper several times.  I don't wanna dip them in the excess sauce coz eewww... I don't do stuff like that.

Spanglish, what?

Sorry not being able to update in awhile... I've been working non-stop...and yes, not to brag about it but, I was chosen as part of the media who will be covering the Miss Universe coronation night... If I would've known sooner, I wouldn't have dared touch that extra slice of chocolate cake in our fridge during the holidays...

But enough about that.  Let me tell you about my experience at this tex-mex restaurant in Clark, Pampanga.

Spanglish represents the food they offer, a combination of Mexican and American/Texan food... My sister loves it here, so I decided why not.  My only rule was, I dont wanna end up smelling like the food I ate when i leave the place...

The interior of Spanglish is unique.  There were colorful chairs and tables, but not too overpowering in the eyes... Just enough to liven up the mood.

I'm a sucker for cucumber drinks, and since I'm having mexican food, which i consider heavy, I need a light drink.  We ordered Cucumber and Pink lemonade. Dont worry, the mason jar's red, but the drink itself is a lighter shade of red.

The Buffalo wings were not swimming in sauce, which is how we all prefer it.  The sauce at the bottom was just enough to dip your chicken just in case you need that extra kick.  You can have it in mild, sweet, and spicy.  Ofcourse, we went for the mild.  Don't worry, the mild still has the hint of spice in it.

Quesadilla... This is a little bit disappointing coz I expect it to have more "laman."  I know we ordered cheese, but there was no oozing of the cheese when you bite into it.  It's taste reflected on the picture, bland.

Chimichanga plate.  This one I enoyed... Like seriously... It was so good.  The rice is a little bit on the dry side, but the meat wraps made up for it. I like that they were not stingy with the olives.  I love olives...

Come with an empty stomach if you plan on ordering the Beef, Beans and Cheese Burrito.  I'm telling you, when they served this, we were like "Ok, this one will do...for the three of us." That's how intimidating its size was.  The flavors inside though were another thing.  It's melt-in-your-mouth goodness.

There was no room for dessert, even though I would've loved to try their fried ice cream.  Maybe next time.  I'm sure, there will be a next time.
