Ersao

One December night when my buddy and I were out of our comfort zones buying Christmas stuffs, we came across Ersao at West Avenue. I already read about it so I was pretty confident that we could at least order the pearl drinks if we didn't like the food.

Ersao at West Ave is quite a big branch.

It's a Taiwanese Resto with a fastfood ambiance. I liked the fact that it was well-lit compared to the other restos beside it. 

Here's what we ordered:

I think this is chicken noodles

I think this is some sort of complete machang -- 7 Treasures Maching (?)

I think this is pig's ears

I think this is tofu

Ofcourse I ordered PEARL MILK TEA! =P

Also loved the fact that food prices are budget-friendly. Whenever I dine with this particular buddy, we usually end up spending Php500 up each! So we had a bit of a laugh when we only paid Php400 for our entire meal. That's Php200 each - the lowest we've gone so far. =P

Bonchon chicken

I've read rave reviews about bonchon chicken and I was really eager to try it out. It was a good thing that it opened at Ayala Triangle because it's relatively near my aunt's office. ( Yes, being strategically near my aunt's office/place is a factor in choosing where to eat.)

And so we went... I haven't had any food since morning so I was really really hungry...

The tarp in front of the BonChon store
The choices... chicken... chicken... and oh... chicken!
Our waiting number... 20.... we waited more than 20minutes for our order...
Out of boredom and the need to preoccupy my hungry belly while we wait for our food, I took some pics of the store...

The ceiling.
The cool wall art.
The door where Bonchon staff comes&goes.... I was constantly looking at this door while waiting for our orders to be brought  out and served on our table...
The BonChon drinks cup
The BonChon box - it reminded me of KFC/Jollibee packaging...
Chicken chop rice box - chicken strips fried the BonChon way with rice... it didn't satisfy my hungry belly...
Bonchon Chicken Combo - wings fried the BonChon way... it was okay (said in a sarcastic way). I was expecting it to be more amazing but sadly, it didn't have the "wow" factor I was looking for....
Ginger Tofu Salad - My aunt and I liked this more than the BonChon Chicken
Perhaps one of the factors why I didn't appreciate dining here so much was because of the hair we found on the plates... Not to mention the insect that we saw, the long waiting time and the sloppy service....
