Goreng Goreng

We spotted this hole in the wall restaurant through the navigating features of website. Our U! Happy team had lunch here after our outreach in Manila Boys Town. Goreng Goreng serves mostly authentic Malaysian and Singaporean cuisine. This establishment served us decent food but I see them struggling in the future given their location and high price points. We paid Php 2,620, too much for small portions. Their menu is also difficult to comprehend as they are written in actual names of the countries' local dishes.   We got their banner dish, Hainanese Family for Php 800. The chicken could use more seasoning and quantity. It had a mere 6 portions of red meat and they tried to justify its price with a large bowl of Hainanese rice. The Chicken Sate at Php 220 was not as appetizing too, and it only came with 5 very thin sticks. I did enjoy their version of Laksa (Php 140), Mee Goreng Mamak (Php 190) and Kerabu Mangga (Php 150). The Mamak is Indian-Malay style fried noodles with peanuts, mung bean sprouts, mustard greens, tofu, potatoes, tomatoes and squid balls while the starter Kerabu Mangga has an add-on of salted egg for a richer flavor. Our table also got Tauhu Goreng (tofu chips at Php 130), Kerabu Tinum (cucumber salad at Php 80), Kangkong Belacan (Php 130), Daging Kacau Goreng (stir-fried beef, Php 250) and Pisang Goreng (bananas in egg wrapper, Php 120). Are you into southeast Asian cuisine? If you are, Goreng Goreng delivers flavors found in these countries. It's just pricey for my taste but worth having if you are craving it.

I'm giving 4.0 for now because I haven't yet tried majority of their dishes.I would not provide photos because those are exactly what they displayed on their website profile.This is definitely one of the gems in the booming food industry in Marikina. I've been here twice and I always leave the shop satisfied.Place - 4.0 - This place is super near our house. In fact I can walk from home to get here. Unfortunately this place is not very accessible to outsiders.Taste - 4.0 - Every dish is freshly cooked. If you're looking for authentic indo/malaysian dishes, this place could absolutely deliver.Price - 4.0 -  The price is surprisingly affordable in comparison to their competitors.  Trust me that its going to worth every penny you spend.

Our usual order: Sate Ayam and Ais Kopi Gu You (butter coffee). So nice of them to always customize our coffee by using coconut milk instead of dairy milk. Perfect for our keto diet. Thank you! :)
