Din Tai Fung BGC - Xiao Long Bao, Spicy Noodles & a Little Foodie Damage.. haha
Tried Din Tai Fung at BGC near Uptown Mall and as usual.. I came hungry and left with my "hindi ako foodie" opinions. 🤣
🥟 Soy Shrimp Wonton - ✅✅✅✅☑️
Spicy enough for me, but baka medyo maanghang for some. Not sure if the spice level can be adjusted, but I actually liked the heat.. hindi puro anghang.. may flavor din 🌶️
🥟 Truffle & Pork XLB - ✅✅✅✅✅
YES! I love XLB and this one did not disappoint. Medyo nakakapaso lang ng dila.. but apparently I don't learn. 😂
🍫 Chocolate XLB - ✅✅✅☑️☑️
Okay naman taste-wise.. but chocolate isn't really my thing.. So this one is more of a "It's not you.. It's me.." situation.. hehe.. 🤣
🥚🐙 Salted Egg Squid - ✅✅✅✅☑️
I'm biased.. anything salted egg is automatically a YES 😂
But I genuinely enjoyed this one - flavorful and.. most importantly.. hindi gummy yung squid.
🍚 Shrimp Fried Rice - ✅✅✅☑️☑️
Simple. Nothing fancy.. but the rice texture was spot on.👌
🍜 Braised Beef Noodle (Dry-Spicy) — ✅✅✅✅✅
This one 👏 I would actually come back just for this. The beef and tendon were tender and flavorful, and the spicy sauce had enough kick to keep things interesting.. Pero sana adjustable yung spice level because that first bite had me questioning my life choices na naman😂🌶️ Eventually tolerable naman, pero yung hapdi sa umpisa? Napasabi ako na sana pala tinanong ko muna sa waitstaff kung pwede adjust.. haha
Braised Beef Noodles + Truffle Pork XLB = Babalik ako 😁🥟🍜

⚠️⚠️⚠️ DISCLAIMER ⚠️⚠️⚠️
Taste is subjective. 😅
You might've licked, sipped, tasted, or experienced things that I haven't.. for quite some time now. 🤭😂
Baka pang-mayaman yung toothpaste mo and your taste buds are living their best life. Ako? Muray-ray edition lang. 🤣
So this is purely based on my own taste buds, my own cravings, and my own questionable food decisions.
What works for me might not work for you.. kanya-kanyang panlasa lang. 😁
