UP Diliman Shopping Center Food Finds

The University of the Philippines - UP Diliman Shopping Center has been our (Geof and mine) favorite food-destination. Here you'll find Ersao that specializes on crispy chicken/ pork/ squid rice toppings; and Rodic's with their signature tapsilog (tapa, sinangag and itlog). Rodic's tapa is distinct since it's shredded and generously topped on rice.

Last night, we discovered a new stall, Mashitta, that provides Korean and Japanese Food. We ordered their Korean "Ryamen" and "Bulgogi," and Japanese "Omu-rice" and "Tempura." The "Ryamen" is spicy and tastes nice although the noodle used seems like the ready to serve (pour-hot-water type) noodle. The "bulgogi" also tastes as expected - sweet and spiked with some spice. Geof enjoyed the "Omu-rice" (flavored riced wrapped in fried egg) and tempura. The price is also reasonable. Of course one cannot expect a fine-dining experience in a carinderia style restaurant, but we think that this resto is good enough when it comes to "value-for-money. "
