Plana's Pantry

Our website group took advantage of a near-empty Manila yesterday due to the Holy Week break. We huddled up and went to two restaurants. One of them is a cafe in Mandaluyong called Plana’s Pantry. They serve Western and local cuisine.Overall we weren’t satisfied with what we availed from them. The only thing that stood out for me was two things, their tasty plate of Chicken Teriyaki with pesto rice and Plana Pantry’s moist and fudgy, Midnight Chocolate Cake. I don’t recommend their Tomato, Basil, and Shrimp for it was too ordinary. Same goes with the Beef Salpicao since most of its pieces were just too rubbery. Our table also ordered Mushroom Salpicao and their own freshly baked Cheese Bread.

Serving portions here are huge which is good for the prices. Had their salpicao and I think it was just okay, fork tender, goes well with the pesto rice but lacked flavor. I was expecting it to be more intense given it's a kind of tapa, have tasted better elsewhere.Service was quick, the decadent chocolate cake was great, it was moist and not too sweet.Overall, worth a visit, will probably try their other dishes next time.

I just love this place! I always go here for takeout since I only have myself to dine with. And even though it’s takeout, they always ace preparing my food. Very good quality for the price of food! I love their baby back ribs at P285. Comparing the price to the flavor of food, it’s one steal in the bag! Flavorful! Soft that you can literally eat the bones. Make this place mainstream! The world needs this kind of food experience.
