We discovered this place two years ago. Remembering how soft the softness of the beef when we ordered the beef noodles, we made note to come back to this place. Two years later, we finally find the time to visit Ongpin, Manila.
We ordered several dishes starting with the steamed dumplings - shrimp and vegetable. (Php 100/10pbs). Then, xiao long pao (Php 60/4pcs), soy bean noodles - handmade thick noodles with cucumber (Php 100).
We're supposed to order the beef noodle. Anyway, the soy bean noodle is like spaghetti but Xiamen style.
I am disappointed with xiao long pao. After my Shanghai trip, I'm scouting for that dumpling with soup inside.
Lastly, we had the fried chicken with sinjiang flavor (Php 180) and fried rice (Php 60).
I love the chicken it was soft and yummy.

Today, I went to Edsa Garden House to attend a free seminar on how to cook a free ranged chicken with herbs.
Mrs. Sandy Itchon shared with us two ways. One, roasted chicken. Two, chicken soup.
There are no exact measurements and recipe.
For the roasted chicken, rub chicken with marjoram, tarragon, rosemary, sweet basil, garlic, olive oil, salt and pepper. Then inside the turbo broiler placed a baking dish with unpeeled marbled potatoes (of course, thoroughly wash) Then, place the chicken on top of the bed of potatoes. Then, turbo broil for 1hour or till done.
For the chicken soup, water, lemongrass, garlic, salt and pepper. Then, add chicken. Cook with low fire for 1hr.
We had food tasting and it was really delicious!

Instead of looking for a 'manghihilot', my triathlete sister adviced me to cold compress, don't walk too much and take ALAXAN - an anti-inflammatory drug and pain reliever.
After contemplating for the longest time, I decided to purchase a new phone. Got this kinda expensive. Gray market sells at Php 18k but because I'm after monthly installments I got this phone for Php 23,970. That's about Php 1,982.50 per month. Plus, 1 yr warranty and a chance to win a Boracay trip.
