Carmina's Review on Hacienda Chicken Style Arroz Caldo from Arroz Ecjia

  Carmina decided to order her dinner at  Arroz Ecija Filipino Soul Food located inside Robinsons Magnolia. It is my first time to try their Hacienda chicken style arroz caldo. Every time I would walk around in Robinsons Magnolia would see a lot of people dine inside. The menu is placed on the table for you to view. There is a small kitchen in back of the counter. Carmina had it for takeout was still warm when brought it home for 189.00 pesos ($3.26). Hacienda Chicken Style Arroz Caldo was very filling lots of ingredients can make a meal for you. I wouldn't mind trying their other Filipino dishes next time with Mom Violy. NOT SPONSORED. Subscribe @ Carmina Lifestyle YouTube Channel  a place to look, discover and share.
