Enjoy the taste of the Grill

Home-church-home is our family's usual routine on Sundays. Between church and home, after attending the Sunday Worship Service, we would often stop for lunch at Toni's Grill.




Located right in the middle of Shakey's Pizza and Dunkin Donuts at Pearl Drive Mall, Fairview, Quezon City, Toni's Grill has become a frequent weekend hangout of our family for lunch. 




Opening the door, this is what you will see.




Did you say ambiance? Well, not a very formal atmosphere inside. Homey is more like it. We do see familiar faces almost every week. Toni's Grill is gradually becoming a luncheon melting pot of families coming from different churches in the Fairview community.


A very practical place to dine where one can enjoy simple legitimate Filipino cuisine at very reasonable prices.

We have a favorite spot at one corner where this big wall painting is the background.




Now it's time to order! Com'on!






Pick your choice! I'm starving!

Krispy Kangkong (P 58.09) is a favorite entree.

How I wish I could manage to turn a bunch of kangkong leaves into thin pieces of egg-coated crisps that taste like spinach.

The perfect blend of the sweet and sour dressing of this Thai Eggplant (P 103.43) 
has caught the tastebuds of Ana Cristina.



The egg slices would disappear in an instant even before I could get one for myself!

Pinakbet na Bangus (P 176.95) --- is Billy's default dish, having fish and veggie in one.
We get to share this large half slice of bangus set in a platter 
arrayed with string beans, okra, squash and ampalaya with its thick creamy sauce.


Ayana Grace would order any of these---
Seafood Medley (P 243.80)


Garlic Squid


Chicken Teriyaki (P 193.97)


Pancit Palabok (P 134.68) solo serving


Ana Cristina likes this Crispy Hito Salad (P 154.58)


and other similar dishes such as Ensaladang Mangga (P 101.42) and Thai Green Mango (P 83.69).

Lumpia Shanghai (P167.12)



Chef Rice (P 147.46)



One order of this savory fried rice with carrots and green onions,
topped with egg omelette and shrimps serves more than four.

Our favorite thirst-quencher --- either ripe or green Mango Shake (P 85.00)


Did you notice the generous serving of each dish featured? One serving is actually good for 3-4 persons (shhhhh…. Even if the waiters would say one serving is only good for two, one shouldn't take their word all the time!) We would order two to three dishes and enjoy a sumptuous lunch!

Clean and cozy place. Restroom and wash area?  Well, a little bit of maintenance like prompt refilling of the liquid soap could still be appreciated and an automatic door closer for the rest room because of its proximity to one or two tables. 

Planning your next meal? Try Toni's Grill and enjoy Filipino cuisine that keeps us coming back week after week.  It also has several branches in Metro Manila. 

Oh, look, my Facebook friends!

Pesto Spanish Sardines Pasta: A Remake

There's a saying that goes, "One is enough, two is too much..." Uh uhhh, not for this!!! I'm referring to the Spanish Sardines Pasta which was my welcome post this year. My daughter, Ayana Grace, bought a bottle of pesto from the grocery store last month (she usually does...we seldom run out of pesto sauce in our cupboard) and I just wasn't able to resist making another try of the Pesto Spanish Sardines Pasta so here it is... Ingredients: 2 tbsps reserved oil from bottled sardines 2 tbsps olive oil 1 tbsp minced garlic 1/4 cup diced tomato 1 cup flaked Spanish sardines 1/3 cup Pesto sauce 1/4 cup pitted black olives 1/4 cup button mushrooms 1/2 kilo pasta noodles, cooked according to package instructions salt and pepper to taste Whole pieces of Spanish sardines (1 piece as topping per serving) Parsley for garnish   Steps: In a large saute pan, heat oil from sardines. Add olive oil as needed. Saute garlic until fragrant. Add diced

Ensaladang Mustasa

It's back to work today, after five days of rest, something I've been looking forward to. As if the  long Christmas holiday vacation was not enough :) Well, days just seem to fly so fast! Thanks to the additional non-working holidays brought about by the Pope's visit to my country, the Philippines. I had time to relax, stay at home, bond with family and yes, sort picture files in my computer. In between social networking, of course, I cooked for my family. With my husband home, there has to be fish and vegetables on the dining table. There was a bunch of mustasa (mustard) leaves left in the vegetable bin. What could be a better and perfect partner to fried fish than Ensaladang Mustasa (Mustard Salad)? Very simple and easy, here's how I did it. Ingredients: 1 bunch of mustasa leaves Rock salt 2 medium-sized tomatoes, sliced 1 small onion, sliced thinly 3 tbsps vinegar Iodized salt, ground pepper and sugar to taste Steps: 1. Cut mus

Ensaladang Alugbati (Malabar Spinach Salad)

This post appeared in my Facebook memories today. I'm glad it did! I featured this salad in my FB page a year ago.  Alugbati  (Malabar Spinach)  Salad (Ensaladang Alugbati). This came up when I received for the first time this bouquet of alugbati from Erik, my officemate. He shares with us fruits and veggies fresh from his garden.
