Another Alternative of Lutong Macau ~ Eat Well!

Eat Well Delicious Kitchen-19

Go on a weekday OR SUNDAY!  We went there on a Saturday and it was closed!  Oo nga naman, why open on a Saturday when it is barely with people?  Lugi sila pag ganun!  (They’ll be out of business soon if they’ll open everyday.)

Eat Well Delicious Kitchen-3

3pcs Hakaw (Steamed Shrimp Dumplings) P125

A favorite of AD.  No one can have it but him.  I got to taste it and it was really good.  Fresh and meaty! (I mean shrimpy!)  I would love to have an eat-all-you can hakaw!

Eat Well Delicious Kitchen-2

Beef Won Ton Noodle Soup P165

Lovely when I saw the photo on the menu and now, I wondered, why did we get this?   Because we love soup!  Value for money because there were 3 pcs of dumplings and 3 slices of beef.  Garlicky soup that you’d slurp it all the way while it is warm.

Eat Well Delicious Kitchen-11

Ambiance: HK setting as our background.  Feeling that we’re in HongKong.

I was too hungry!  Grrr!  Second time around being a hungry mom!  2 kids to feed.

Eat Well Delicious Kitchen-5

Sliced Beef with Brocolli in Oyster Sauce P205

We wanted a vegetable dish as part of our lunch and we decided to have this boring :D brocolli with sliced beef.  I got the shitake mushroom!  AD got the small trees!  One of his favorite vegetable!

Eat Well Delicious Kitchen-8

Braised Pork with Chinese Sausage & Taro Rice P120

This is similar to machang…suddenly, I remembered my grandmother who is so good in cooking Chinese food.  Everytime I eat Chinese food, I tend to compare it to her cooking.  It was just bad that she is in no condition to cook for us nor share the recipe to her grandchildren.  I am ashamed to admit that I took it for granted.  My favorite’s are her machang, lumpia, kalabas and labanos cake, lomi, shark fin’s soup….everything she cooks, I love! She makes tikoy too!  Now, I haven’t eaten tikoy for 2-3 yrs now because she doesn’t make any anymore and I don’t dare it other tikoy because I know she makes the best tikoy!

Back to this rice….Uhmmm, I didn’t find much braised pork in there.  What was obvious were the taro cubes on top and the chopped onion leeks.  I didn’t like this one (see?  I tend to compare it with my grandma’s machang!)  becuase I thought it tasted soy sauced rice and with a hint of the taro leaves since the rice was steamed on top of the taro leaves.

Eat Well Delicious Kitchen-10

Steamed Egg White with Seafood P255

I loved this!  I felt healthy eating this….Egg whites at the bottom and yummy bits of seafood (fish, shrimp and squid) with mushroom!  Yummy!  Again, I remembered the Steamed Egg with Mushroom which is a little bit similar to this.

Eat Well Delicious Kitchen-17

Masachi with Chocolate P48

Bestseller of the house!  At first, I was hesitant to order this because AD has cough and colds but what the heck?!  I’m curious why people order this…and this was the reason why….fresh from the steamer….oozing white chocolate…..sticky balls with crushed peanuts to add texture to the masachi balls…One take out please!  We enjoyed the cooler masachi at home.  It is good that JX is still small that we got at least 2 pcs each.  AD got 3!  He didn’t let his Poppa get his other share.   He loves desserts!

Will surely visit the place soon!  My in laws would be home in the next few days and I’m sure they’ll love this….surely an alternative to their favorite Lutong Macau along Jupiter St.

    I was just thinking of your A-ma and her yummy food! But, but, but! Even your mom cooks well and so do you! I was just about to comment that you should cook lomi and the lumpia. I remember you cooked those before in one of our Christmas gatherings when Coko wasn’t feeling well and it was SO delicious! Cook na! Dali!!!!
