Mexi Mama

Mexican food in the heart of Marina Mall!

I was brought by my friends to this part of the mall where a new restaurant was opened. The foodie in me was at its peak knowing that my friends personally know the chef behind this.

Here it is. One of the stalls in the area. But don't be deceived!

What we ordered:

And we ended our Mexican feast with their famous churros! So yummy!

If you want to try their food, go check them out and be super amazed! I heard they opened at Mactan Newtown as well.

Pueblo Mexicano

My officemates once again invited me for a night out. And by that, for now, we meant just eating out. Haha

After having dinner in a dimsum restaurant in BTC, we looked for a place to have coffee and desserts. And as we walked and searched, we found this dimly-lighted restaurant named Pueblo Mexicano.

I am so fond of new places and this one's really interesting from its interiors to the music as you enter the place. Indeed, it's Mexican!

Except for a couple, we were just the people there! We ordered a cake in a jar, cheese nachos and coffee.

I just loved how they presented the cake and how it was not so sweet.

Their nachos was freshly cooked and really good.

After around 2 hrs of talking, we left. I really don't know why this resto does not get that much attention or maybe because it was a weekday? But their food are worth the try and I'm even planning to come back for their main dishes!

La Lucha

I craved for Mexican food and started to scroll down my list of not-have-been restaurants.

Then I realized I haven't been to La Lucha. My previous research says it's somewhere in Elizabeth's pond but when searched again, they moved to a much known location Juana Osmena Street.

So, with my dearest friend, we went. You wouldn't get lost I tell you, if you know where Boosog is. It's right across and I believe this signage is very much visible.

Hya ordered Beef Burrito while I went for Quesadilla.

The quesadilla was served first. I tried this dish before but this one's really different. First, the pita bread was not soft. It was made crunchy which goes really well with the filling. We super enjoyed eating it!

Then, the burrito. This is my first time to try a burrito. Never really thought it has rice on it but it was indeed yummier when I learned of it. Haha. The condiments went so good with it!

the condiments to top it all

You may wanna plan what to order ahead.. 

here's a glimpse of what they offer

If you have observed, the place is not that big and grand but mind you, we were the only Filipinos dining there and you would be.thinking you're abroad! Maybe because the owner is also Mexican? Or because they serve authentic Mexican food that would surely satisfy your cravings! :)

super duper full :)
