When the longing for authentic Pinoy dishes strikes in the U.S., Isla Grand stands ready to transport your taste buds back to the Philippines.

Carmina is traveling to the United States to spend time with her family. My dad planned a family gathering for Mother's Day at their favorite Pinoy restaurant . Since reservations aren’t possible, we arrived an hour early to ensure we could get a table for twelve before everyone else showed up. As my dad approached Isla Grand , the branch we visited in Pleasant Hills, California , the host at the door said they could prepare a table for twelve at five o'clock. Later, the server called my dad's name and guided us to our table. The place was bustling with people enjoying meals and celebrating Mother's Day. On our first visit to Isla Grand, I was captivated by the décor, noticing many native items that gave the place a fancy yet authentic Filipino feel. They usually have a live band, but unfortunately, there was no entertainment the night we went. My family had spoken highly of Isla Grand and encouraged us to try the Filipino dishes we’ve been missing from back home. Lech...

What's cooking Cajun in Prawn Star PH


There was a day I was talking to my friend asking if we had Cajun food in the Philippines. I had mentioned there are certain restaurants that does serve it but haven't tried it.

After talking to my friend I began craving for the food and decided to serve it for my upcoming birthday. I came across from Grab the application I use most often to have my food delivered to my home.

What caught my eye was Prawn Star PH that serves food that has been cooked Louisiana inspired Cajun style in their seafood. I love eating shrimp and love to try it cooked differently from our home.

Too bad the crab wasn't able to try who knows in the future I can try it someday.

I had ordered Prawns Sexy Hottie Mild for PHP 870.00

Side Order of Garlic Noodles PHP 200.00

Corn on the cob PHP 60.00 per piece

It had arrived in per packed plastic containers.




I brought my food to my mom's home to celebrate my birthday there.

My mom and I liked how everything tasted something for us to remind if we miss the cooking back in Louisiana we can always order at Prawn Star PH that is closer for us than flying straight there.
