Pig-out Night

My best friend, Allye, and I decided to hang out because I messaged her that I was already stress in school and it was great that she did not have anything to do during this day. We originally planned to go to Mercato in BGC but when we arrived at the place, it was not open so we were really disappointed. We thought of other places that we could eat and chill and thanks to Zomato, we found this restaurant called Recovery Food also located in BGC. 

Recovery Food offers Filipino dishes that will surely capture their customers' taste buds. They call their meal offerings as Filipino comfort in a bowl and they have this positioning of "Eat, Recover, Leave." The restaurant offers dishes that you can mostly find everywhere just like Tapa, Sisig, Lechong Kawali and the like but they put the quality of every meal very high that will surely make the customers feel very satisfied despite its quite high prices.

The restaurant was small and it can accommodate few people only so when we went at around 7 PM, it was already full that we have to wait for about 20 minutes for us to have a seat. There was nothing special with their interior and furniture. Their kitchen was open so customers can see how they prepare and cook the food. While waiting, they already gave us the menu so we could choose what to order. Looking at the menu, I felt like everything was just ordinary and I could buy their food at a lower price at some other places but well, I want to know what was really special with the place that a lot of people keep on recommending it. I ordered a regular Tapa De Morning which is their best-seller that cost P180.00. On the other hand, Allye chose their full recovery Doc Sisig priced at P235.00.

The waiting time until our order had arrived was kinda long so we were kinda irritated. When our orders were already delivered, the servings were really at a generous amount and the way they presented these ordinary dishes were different from what I expected. It was like a high standard and high quality ordinary Filipino dishes so we were excited to devour what we ordered. My Tapa De Morning was fantastically delicious. It was by far the best tapa I have ever tasted in my life. Their tapa was in small pieces and it was not greasy which what I like it about it very much. It tasted great and this is a very must try! Allye's Doc Sisig was also appetizing but it was a normal sisig and I find that there was nothing extraordinary with it aside from its price was was way lower than the other food in the menu. Their food whether you order the regular or full recovery size if you are fond of eating a lot will really bloat your stomach. We were really full and our tummies were like exploding from these yummy food that we have tasted.

But one thing I did not like about the place was that their service was a bit slow like when we were asking for water and it took for so long that it ended up that they did not gave us water but when it was about the payment, they were so fast at getting it. And also, the ambiance of the place felt that we need to eat fast and right after we eat, we must leave the restaurant immediately. That was what I felt well I think that was because of the staff's not very accommodating. But regardless of all of these, I will surely go back because of their food. I am going to try their other dishes and I will see to it that I'll go back not during peak hours. Overall, I love their food even though it was pricey. Still, it was a good dining experience.
