I enjoyed my visit here. The place is Instagram worthy. The wait staff and kitchen staff are well coordinated. I loved watching the Baker as he made freshly baked bread, and I also loved the bread basket. It had sourdough and baguette. The crispy crust and the soft chewy bread... I would keep coming back just for the bread alone. 😍The entire menu was available at 7:30 in the morning, unless of course they ran out of ingredients. I really appreciate the honesty of the staff. An example is when we ordered the Pan-fried Chicken Steak. Our server came out of the kitchen and informed us that the kitchen asked if we can change our order because the available chicken was under sized and they didn't want to compromise on the quality and quantity of the dish. That to me is already a 👍👍👍👍👍. So we did change our chicken dish. In the photo, you'll see the Ribeye Steak. Don't be fooled by the size, because we asked our server to have the steak divided into two, which he gladly had the kitchen do. At first we thought that they would just have the steak cut into two, but they did an even more amazing job. They served it separately. They divided the steak sauce, mashed potato and the French bean into two separate dish. 🤩 Everything we ordered was good and the service even better. I'm definitely coming back to try the other dishes. As per my companions' warnings, I didn't make it to dessert 😭 I'll confess that I single handedly finished the bread basket and even mopped up the butter. Despite their warnings, I couldn't stop eating the bread 😅

Hello everyone! It has been a long time since the last time we shared an EATSperience in Quezon City. We have been guilty of just going around areas near our place like Makati and Bonifacio Global City. But since our baby’s pediatrician is based in Quezon City and we have to visit her for the monthly checkup, it gives us time to EATSperience restaurants that we rarely go to, and just simply appreciate what that side of Metro Manila has to offer. In this edition of EATSplorations, we will share with you about our latest Quezon City food find, Bao On The Block. It is located in Sgt. Esguerra just across ABS-CBN. This place serves up baos and rice bowls perfect for lunch and after work chow downs. We decided to visit Bao On The Block on a weekday lunch (during our school break) and it was pretty easy to go to. The place is small but it was decorated nicely, for diners who are simply looking for a place to dine at after a long day’s work.
