Mom Violy Craving for Filipino Dishes from Seafood Island Restaurant

  Mom Violy wanted to eat crispy pata and pinakbet from Seafood Island Restaurant located in Cubao, Quezon City near the old Shopwise. We had arrived early being the first customers waiting for the restaurant to open. Few minutes later customers began entering the restaurant and we have already placed our order. Mom Violy ordered her crispy pata and pinakbet. Carmina ordered garlic butter shrimp since I don't eat crispy pata. Family member ordered calamari and shrimp fried rice. Everyone had a taste of our meals with leftovers to bring home. Watch my video  Running Errands in the Philippines . NOT SPONSORED.

My Review on Chi Em Gai Vietnamese Restaurant


I don't normally complain about how a certain food taste like but sometimes we need to let people know before they decide to taste it for themselves.

I have been eating Authentic Vietnamese sandwich for a very long time. I know what it should have by the ingredients made in a Banh Mi.

For the first time my Banh Mi Lon Nuong Barbecue Pork Sandwich was too salty in the meat and sweet on the barbecue marinated in it.



There wasn't any pate on the bread that is often used to make a Banh Mi in most Authentic Vietnamese Restaurants would put.

The vegetables inside wasn't what I had expected little amount inside.

The bread was hard on the top but soft in the inside might be due the process being over toasted. 

I have experience in baking bread during my college years. My parents had owned a Subway Sandwich Franchise when I was living in California.

I had worked there for eight years based on my experience being an Sandwich Artist gave me the knowledge of how our sandwich should taste like and how too prepare it.

For your reference to read more on my life: Sandwich Artist

Banh Mi Thit Lon Nuong (Barbecue Pork Sandwich) PHP 199.00 ($3.98) not including handling and tip to the rider ordered through Grab application.

What I can say that is good in Chi Em Gai Vietnamese Restaurant? 

Cha Gio Vietnamese Fried Spring Roll PHP 99.00 ($1.98) taste better than anything else. I am not sure maybe in certain dishes they need to improve in their cooking.


Note:

I am not selling or advertising for Chi Em Gai Vietnamese Restaurant just wanted to eat something new for a change.
