I've long been hearing about the extreme low price that Carinderia Buffet offers. I honestly found it too hard to believe so I wanted to check it out for myself.
My visit to Carinderia Buffet is quite memorable because I invited a fellow foodie Sumi and her beau to join us Tsinoy Foodies for our very first double date. I happen to be hanging out a lot with her lately since we made our little food group. Aside from being a great company, she is a great food photographer and food blogger. Upon our first meeting, she taught me not to always use flash and auto mode on my dslr.
We were all surprised that Carinderia Buffet is quite spacious with lots huge seating capacity. It was also very clean and well ventilated.
Food
Lunch Buffet (145 php) |
Soup |
Kuhol |
It's been a long time since I ate Kuhol it was delicious! Too bad the guys don't eat food stuff like this though. =p
Lumpiang Shanghai |
Here's my first plate...
I actually find the viands to be tasty and full of flavor. The meats are tender. Oh, they also add new dishes whenever one goes empty. We were all so glad when the bulalo came out. We all had a bone marrow each! Yum! But, avoid the ones with internal organs like the Bopis. They have an acrid taste.
Dessert
Gulaman, Minatamis na Saging and Ginataan |
I liked the Minatamis na Saging. But, the Gulaman is also competitive.
Drinks
For drinks, they had a limited selection:
- Softdrinks in Can - 35 php
- Bottomless Mango Juice - 45 php
- Bottomless Pineapple Juice - 50 php
We had to choose bottomless pineapple juice. The service is pretty amazing that once we finish our glass, they quickly refill it before we can even nod back to call.
Carinderia Buffet is one of the best affordable Filipino Buffets around. The food is fresh and clean except for the internal organs. =) There are a lot of choices that you are sure to leave with a full stomach. The service is great. As and you shall receive. The staffs are very courteous that they greet you with a smile and are very quick to give what you need. The venue is well maintained. Even the restroom is hygienic and complete with supplies. I recommend you try it out when you're in the area.
