Rice in A Box (RBX): Instant Barya Meal (SM Mall of Asia Hypermarket)

I've been seeing Rice in a Box (RBX) for a long time but never bothered to try it.  One time, I went out on an errand and forgot my wallet.  (Yeah, I'm quite careless sometimes)  As I got hungry, I scrambled on my coin purse for some change (barya) and recalled seeing Rice in a Box offer cheap meals so I headed there.

They have a very straight forward menu with pictures of bowls filled with yellow-colored rice and toppings.

In addition to that, there are also plates wrapped in plastic to show the meals up-close.

I waited around 10 minutes and my Beef and Mushroom was ready.  It was served in a Chinese box with a napkin and plastic spork.

As I opened it, I couldn't help but wonder why it didn't look the same as the menu and display?  That's when I noticed that it didn't have any peas and corn.  The beef bits and mushrooms were well-proportioned with the rice.  In terms of taste, it was enhanced with MSG but that's roughly what you paid for.  It felt warm to the tummy but the portion is snack-size.

Tsinoy Foodies Verdict
I'm glad I got to try Rice in a Box (RBX).  It's has hundreds of branch that's always crowded and I've always wondered what it taste like for such a bargain price.
