Trip Ko Lang

It has been ages since my closest friends and I had dinner, we tried a new place along Jupiter St. in Makati, it was called Gino’s Eats and Beats. It was a perfect place for small groups just like us with cozy ambiance and good food; a great spot for simple talks and catching up.

Looking for something light to eat, we ordered for Gino’s 3 Cheese Sandwich, it was really yummy, thanks to the pesto flavor which made it superb!

Here comes the most-loved Eggs Benedict, egg and cheezy topping overload… Yum yum!

Eggs Benedict @ 185php

We also tried one of Gino’s best-sellers, BBQ spare ribs, too much fat but taste was good and even better with the BBQ sauce that goes with it.

Overall, our dining experience was great, good food and service, clean and cozy ambiance, and reasonable prices. Too bad, there was a private function that evening so we were not able to stay that long and didn’t experience Gino’s Beats which usually happens in late evenings… I guess there’s always a next time and some other time to try Gino’s other best dishes.

In Filipino, this catchy name “Chic-Boy” also refers to a boy who loves and pursues a lot of girls… Oh, Boy! you really love those Chics!

Chics and Boys, you are invited to delicious and affordable meals only in Chic-Boy! Girls can go for the chickens and baboy for the boys! Just the perfect match! right? Hehe.

Chic-Boy entrance

Chic-Boy started doing business in 2008 from take out counters in Marikina and Quezon City. It was just recently they had their first real fast food restaurant along Jupiter St. in Makati City.

And so… Trip Ko Lang goes to Chic-Boy…

Cebu Lechon Liempo

Chic-Boy offers Chibog Busog Meals for less than 100php which include house soup and unlimited rice! Yes, you heard it right! Rice All You Can, calling no-diet people and rice lovers! Hehe.

Chic-Boy Lechon Sauce

We had Cebu Lechon Liempo meal at 99php and Cebu Lechon Manok meal at 97php. Both meals were delicious. I loved the Lechon Liempo, it really tasted Cebu’s Lechon which I fell in love with when I was in Cebu. Vinegar goes with these meals but you also have to try their Lechon sauce…

Cebu Lechon Manok

For side orders, we had Ensaladang Mangga and Pancit Canton at 40php each.

Ensaladang Mangga

Pancit Canton tasted just the usual but a bit salty… by the way, we also had bottomless Iced Tea just for 25php.

Pancit Canton

Overall, our Chic-Boy foodie experience was good, enjoyed delicious meals at affordable prices. Super sulit meals! The place was spacious, clean and friendly environment. Also, loved their interior, great design! Service was good and quick.

Highly recommended for the Chics and Boys on a budget and craving for delicious chicken and baboy! Hehe. See yah!
