AY CABALEN - AY CARAMBA!

Me and my baby we’re on our way to meet up with some friends when we decided to kill time by eating early dinner. We didn’t want to go far so we decided to look for a place in West Avenue. Again, it took us so much time just to pick a place to eat, we just don’t feel a calling from the restaurants we passed by. So as not to waste our time completely, we wanted something light, Filipino-something dish, we ended up going to CABALEN.

Known for their Filipino dishes, a place for gatherings and buffets, and that’s exactly what we got. At first there we’re a few people (since it’s still early), but the minute we sat down, people just poured. We kept on hearing “nandyan na po si Pastor”, “kumamay ka muna kay Pastor”, everybody’s in their formal attire (or atleast they tried). It turned out to be a flock of Catholic faithfuls.


We went there, a buffet place, and ordered ala carte, only to find out that our bill was almost like getting the buffet meals already. Damn! We should have gotten the buffet!
We ordered Corn soup, Humba, Crispy veggies (resolution:we would always have veggies in our meals), one rice and bottomless ice tea. That’s me giving the thumbs up (hoping it would be all that I expect it to be...). As it turned out, we ended up asking for Knorr Seasoning, sipping 5 tablespoon of the soup, 1/3 of the Humba (its too sweet, my baby is not a fan of sweet viands for her meals), and the veggies... wasn’t able to finish either. The rice? Half. Ice tea? Lipton. My baby doen’t like Lipton. *sigh* Cabalen turned out to be the most expensive meal since we didn’t like any of their food, not one bit...

Here’s my baby texting her friends how miserable we are with the food.
Gosh, can you see that cute lil nose of hers (can I just pinch it please...) and just pay attention to how she looks at her cellphone... wow! It’s like she can type in letters just by glaring on the screen. She’s such a Diva di ba?!?!

Mr Pedro recently helped us with a loan which we used to expand our business. The process was amazing! He was in touch with us frequently to check in and to update us on what was happening throughout our loan repayment. He was friendly and approachable and always able to clear up questions that we had. We had such a great experience working with Pedro!!
