Krazy Garlik: Restaurant Review

So I watched Hunger Games. After the movie, it was my turn to look for my own food. As the movie slogan “May the odds be always in your favor.” Let me rephrase that, “May the FOODS be always in your favor”

Yes. I was hungry and I cooked up an appetite. I looked for restaurants around greenbelt.

I ended up in Krazy Garlic, located at Greenbelt 5 besides California Pizza Kitchen.

This is my third time to dine in this restaurant. I chose to sit on the smoking area because it’s cozier than the place itself. It has an overlooking of Greenbelt 3 and the fact of fresh air during the night lightens up the mood.

As expected, I ordered their best seller, Hara-Kiri Rice. It has an option to share or solo plate. As hungry as I am, I decided to go for the “to share” option. Priced at 365 pesos, I can pretty say the food is worth the price. Hara Kiri rice is their house specialty rice that includes shrimp,squid, bacon and a spicy flavor to the rice. The serving is good to 2 to 3 persons.. But if the person is as hungry like me, then the serving might be good for just one person. Kidding aside, their serving size and the plate appearance is well appreciated.

Second on the list, we had the white fish fillet with creamy seafood. I cannot determine which kind of fish that is used in this menu but it was cooked perfectly. The meat was pan-fried and delicately cooked and to top it with white sauce that includes shrimp and scallops made it more mouth watering to eat. Priced at 545 pesos. A little pricey but once you saw the food appearance and even tasting it, I wonder if you would even consider the price because I drooled upon seeing the food came out.

Lastly, as they say, you cannot have it all. We had what they called 40 Kloves Garlic Chicken. It was a marinated chicken, in their own original garlic sauce that is shimmered around their kloves. To be honest, it was a fried chicken with gravy sauce. Simple as that. To make the food worse, the chicken was not freshly cooked. It was just like reheated.

To conclude, the food was great. The ambiance was perfect and the service was not bad at all. A perfect place for dates, which I just did last night. To mention other foods that I would like to try last night was their Korean Beef Stew and their Japanese Matsuri, which is a Japanese mushroom topped in garlic sauce. Their fruit shakes and their cranberry juice deserved to be mentioned.

Certainly, this will not be the last time I would dine in this restaurant. Mr. Muncher will be back. And I'll bring my SLR camera for better image resolution :)
