Dinner at Hawaii's North Shore

Last November 17 which was a Thursday, I was at UP-Ayala Techno Hub for a dinner with the Open Rice Philippines Team. It’s my second time to attend their “Eat’s a Date” activity where they treat Open Ricers and food bloggers to a sumptuous dinner to introduce a particular restaurant and to just have a bonding time with us. This time, we tried the food at Hawaii's North Shore. Our dinner consisted of their signature burgers and steaks which are the stars of the restaurant’s very simple and straightforward menu.

I got caught in the traffic and so I arrived in the restaurant during the latter part of the dinner. I didn’t get to taste the burgers but I did have a great time finishing the various steaks served to us. If I’m not mistaken, I ate three different steaks in one night. How lucky could I get?

My fave among the three would be the Strip Steak because it was succulent and well-seasoned. It also had the right balance of meat and fat I wanted. Simply delicious.

The other two were good as well. They had the right marbling and the meat was fork-tender.

The best thing about the steaks is that their prices were quite affordable considering they were imported beef. Nice.

By the way, I also got a taste of the Caesar salad and it was light and refreshing.

Hawaii's North Shore is one themed restaurant that serves good food at mid-range prices. The ambience is cozy and relaxing. When you're here, it's like you're on a beach, what with all the surfboards and other beach essentials adorning the place. The beach wear-donning wait staff completes the beach vibe and adds a festive mood to the restaurant, too. It helped that they were friendly and attentive, too, during our visit.

Super New Dishes from Super Bowl of China Premiers Today

Super Bowl of China has four new sumptuous dishes to offer their growing clientele starting today, July 1. Bloggers (myself included!) got the chance to sample these creations, which were prepared lovingly by the restaurant's executive chef in the person of Chef Roy, yesterday at the Super Bowl of China-Mall of Asia Branch. It was also during this time that they launched their two foodie masscots, Super Happi and Super Lucky.


The four super new dishes from Super Bowl of China are aptly named as follows: Golden Weave Cut US Frozen Potato with Minced Pork (P150), Beef Fillet Chinese Style (P260), Crispy Fish Fillet with Lemon and Plum Sauce (P250) and Hot and Spicy Chicken(Php250).


Note that all these dishes are flavorful and affordable, too. In less than P300, you get a complete dish that's good for sharing. Among them, I liked the chicken dish the most. The peppery taste from the whole, dried chili peppers, suited my palate better than the crispy fish fillet, the other hot dish in the selection.

To make things even more exciting, Super Bowl of China has recently partnered with the US Potato Board to incorporate US potatoes in their menu. This is best represented in one of the four super new dishes they launched, the Golden Weave Cut US Frozen Potato with Minced Pork. You'll surely love the rich potato flavor of this dish. The pork is very tender, too. I think it's a complete meal in itself (carbo + protein).

Thank you to Super Bowl of China and Yehey.com for yet another fun and filling event. Super Bowl of China really knows how to deliver a complete and happy dining experience. (I can still vividly remember the awesome Super Bowl Event last year.)
