Fish & Co. Introduces New Fish and Chips Varieties

To dine at Fish & Co. is to experience the best seafood in town. I swear by the resto's fish and chips that is sure to excite your senses, anytime of the day. Yesterday, I was able to taste the four new fish and chips varieties (India, Japan, Malaysia and US-Philadelphia) through Fish & Co. and Yehey.com's Prep-Up the Platter Bloggers Event.The highlight of this was a food-plating competition which was eventually won by our group (US-Philadelphia), after a sweat-inducing trip to the supermarket and a serious flexing of creative muscles.

Fish & Co.'s fish around the world platter, value for money at P795

Fish & Co. traces its roots in Singapore. Ricky Chew and Lambert Yeo started the fish and seafood restaurant in December 1998. Initially, the goal was to provide a cool, mid-level fish and seafood restaurant with an international and contemporary flair. Thousands of fish and chips servings sold later, Fish & Co. has expanded from its motherland's shores to Malaysia, Middle East, Australia, Indonesia and China. Now, it's here in the Philippines starting with three branches: Shangri-La Mall (the flagship store), Trinoma and Mall of Asia.

Fish & co. has recently come up with four flavors for its specialty fish and chips and they are:

Disclaimer: The fish and chips are not served to diners styled like that. Those were only the outputs from the food-plating competition we did.

Fish & Co. at Shangri-La Mall was gracious enough to let us sample their fish around the world platter and a couple of other dishes. Personally, I liked the Malaysian version of the fish and chips. The sambal sauce they put on top of the fish is a winner. It's hot and spicy and matches the fish well. How about you? Have you dined at Fish & Co. recently? What's your favorite among the four? Or better yet, how was your overall Fish & Co. experience?

KFC's Cheesy BBQ Meltz: Chiz-Sarap to the Last Bite!

KFC's Cheesy BBQ Meltz is the newest addition to KFC's already extensive menu.I tried it Friday night with Edwin when we had a quick dinner at KFC-Mendiola. What can I say? This new treat from KFC is delicious and oozing with Mexican flavors.

Imagine a medium-sized toasted tortilla stuffed with melted Mozzarella cheese, crushed nachos, tomatoes, mushrooms and chicken fillet chunks in cheesy-mayo dressing. Take a bite and let your palates enjoy the good sensations: the gooey Mozzarella, the sweet and tangy taste of tomatoes and mayo dressing, the chewy toasted tortilla and the tasty chicken fillet.

I love how the different flavors played inside my mouth.It's like you're munching on nachos, chicken burger, tacos and tortilla wrap in one. (Forget about the calories. It sure has a load of those.)

For P85, KFC's Cheesy BBQ Meltz is not friendly to students with average baon. I guess the target market of this product is the working population. And given the size, which cannot be shared by two people with big appetite, the price seems a bit harsh.

At least the poster isn't lying as to what you should expect, except that it looks neat which is the opposite when you start touching it (one medium-sized tortilla sliced into four). I tell you, it's gonna be super messy you will have to eat slowly and carefully. Unless of course you're in the confines of your home away from the prying stares of other diners.

But I digress.

KFC Cheesy BBQ Meltz is well worth your money if you're someone who appreciates good fast food. I say it's chiz-sarap to the last bite. :)
