The buffet starts at exactly 11 am. As you can see people are anxious feast with its offerings .
There are lots of waiting space at the garden. And, they have sufficient parking space.
The house built in the 1920's exudes a classic heritage feel. It is blended with contemporary influence with the autographed plates and paintings hanged on its walls. It's multiple function rooms makes it perfect for occasions and events. During my second visit, I heard that Goldilocks was having a Christmas Party.

I liked the ♥ Pork Dinuguan because it's meaty.
The ♥ Malolos Na Hipon is also highly recommended. I've seen it refilled over and over.

The ♥ Roast Turkey with Cornmeal Stuffing is part of the Maagang Salu-Salo. But, other meat options are more in demand like the ♥ Angus Beef...
