Being a full-time student, my resources are quite limited. So I'm always in search for affordable meals. One day during our final exams, I went to school early to study and decided to eat there too. When I saw Binalot, I recalled reading about it in the Entrepreneur Magazine as being a hit. After a glace of its prices, I took the bait.
They had a lot of Filipino options to choose from. I ordered the Bistek Walastik (83 php) because I always prefer food with sauce. My order came wrapped in brown paper.
As soon as I unwrapped the brown paper, I could smell the fresh and hot Bistek Walastik escaping from the banana leaves.
Bistek Walastik (83 php) |
I was surprised that the serving size is actually pretty big. Although it didn't have the onions like in the picture, it had a generous amount of meat, rice, tomatoes and a slice of salted egg. The Bistek Walastik was dominantly salty but it was okay. The meat was not that tender but it wasn't too tough either. I had a hard time finishing this because of the huge amount of rice.
Binalot offers selections that resembles our Home Filipino-cooked meals at an affordable price. Taste is not exactly something you'd crave but it can certainly satisfy your hunger. Food quality in terms of freshness is pretty good. It was served hot, the tomatoes were still fresh and the rice was not hard and dry.
