My plate (clockwise): Panda Express orange chicken, mixed vegetables, kung pao chicken, black pepper steak Panda Express along Dona Soledad Avenue in Paranaque City opened early this year 2022... I think or 2021 pa ? Anyway, I had visitors over last August so I bought a bunch of ulam there via foodpanda delivery. I like that they have veggies. Masarap lahat. Orange chicken is sweet — winner with the kids. Mixed vegetables with lots of broccoli are fresh and  hindi laspag  — winner with the adults. Kung pao chicken is hot/spicy. Black pepper steak is peppery — most of the beef slices were super tender, but merong konti na malitid . I also bought Mongolian pork that didn't make it into my plate... but I did get leftovers of it the next day. Dessert was excellent — double cheesecake with half Nutella and nuts, half strawberry jam; home-made by my super cousin. Yum! 

(08/30/2022) Tonight’s dinner is Mang Inasal delivery via Food Panda…  Mang Inasal Palabok (P73.00) Yummy palabok… but 1 calamansi is not enough. Padagdag po ng calamansi.  I also bought the Mang Inasal buddy size promo with 2 chicken inasal and 3 barbecue sticks which should be good for two more meals.   -  I did not want to eat rice tonight. We had Spam for brunch. It was the “Low Sodium” Spam but still so very salty so I ate more rice than usual. Andun padin ang salty taste even after I brushed my teeth. 

Sa BonChon, either hit or miss ang lasa ng food... First taste was at a restaurant inside SM Bicutan -- the beef "bibimbowl" was shockingly salty. As in! Second, delivery naman via FoodPanda -- Bonchon beef stew and soy garlic chicken. Both were savory! Very delicious!  Third, delivery ulit -- Bonchon soy garlic chicken and chapchae (pic below). The Bonchon chapchae was sweet as expected. But the soy garlic chicken... bakit super sweet din? Anong nangyari? Waah!
