Join us for a memorable family lunch at the Blackbird, nestled within the iconic Nielson Tower, where exquisite cuisine meets stunning panoramas.

Family was informed by their friends to try  Blackbird at the Nielson Tower  and asked Mom Violy if she has ever been there before. Mom Violy had no clue what it was asked Carmina to look it up and see what kind of food they serve.  Carmina gave the phone number to Mom Violy make a reservation for a family lunch. On the day of the reservation, we arrived early and were allowed to enter before the official opening time of eleven o’clock in the morning. We decided to stay in the lobby, where we were asked if we wanted anything to drink. Carmina took videos inside and learned about the history by talking to the staff. One hour later, people started coming into the restaurant and took their seats at the reservation table, browsing the menu to decide what to order. Our family members were running late, but we didn’t get bored thanks to the friendly staff. More customers kept arriving and placing their orders, and we couldn’t help but glance at their dishes, curious about what ...

Carmina's Review on Banh Mee Express


Carmina found a reasonable price of a Bahn Mi that can fill you up from the price you pay for one sandwich you can purchase a second one to try which one you like the best.

You're choices are from Lemon Grass Chicken, Pork BBQ and Beef.

Carmina is not really a beef person so she didn't to opt it and go toward the two remaining flavors with all the vegetables all in tack inside the Bahn Mi.

Vietnamese sandwich has always been my favorite but I haven't found the right one that can say this is the one.

In other Vietnamese sandwiches I've tried before the bread is either too hard to chew or the texture of the bread doesn't seem to be fit to make it into a Bahn Mee.

Finally from soul searching Bahn Mee Express has solved my solution from what I wanted from a Vietnamese sandwich the bread is soft; meat is flavored that reaches your taste buds and all the vegetables inside can savory to be combined all together to make a delicious Bahn Mee.

  • Lemon Grass Chicken Banh Mi PHP 109.00 ($2.18) tastes a mixed of Filipino Adobo with a combination of Vietnamese flavoring in the meat. It is not a bad thing since we live in the Philippines there are other restaurant that is influence by combining pate, cucumber, pickled carrots and radish, mayo, cilantro and their special sauce.

  • Pork BBQ Banh Mi PHP 109.00 ($2.18) has a taste of the Filipino Pork Barbecue something I had tasted when I had bite into the sandwich when you combine the pate, cucumber, picked carrots and radish, mayo, cilantro and special sauce that is inside makes it Vietnamese.

I am very picky in food somehow I found my favorite one. I cannot wait to try their other dishes in the future.
