Kanto Freestyle Breakfast

One of the few breakfast places in Marikina. The place only offers al fresco dining but they have large fans. Service is slow. We're the only customer that time and we ordered bacon and pancakes and their famous new Zealand tapa. It took 15 minutes for our orders to arrive. The new Zealand tapa did not disappoint. It is chewy and flavorful. I also love how they cooked their sunny side up eggs. The bacon is also my favorite. It's crispy. But there were only two strips of bacon which made me unsatisfied. What disappointed me the most is their pancake. It's too sticky an@d not fluffy. It tastes even worse than a fastfood pancake. They should improve their pancake recipe. Also, my scrambled eggs is undercooked in my opinion. There's still fluid which killed my appetite while eating.

It was my first time dining here. I saw this way back when this resto has started but haven't tried it back then. So me and my boyfriend decided to have our breakfast here. The ambiance is so so because it's open and there's a lot of car passing by. The food is awesome especially the presentation. Price and taste, very fair. Servings is fair also. Will definitely go back and try other dishes.

As the name suggests, the restaurant is located on a street corner, a busy street corner, that if you have anything against eating within uncomfortable hearing distance of vehicles speeding several meters away, with the occasional honking of horns, the unfortunate belch of smoke, then this place might not be for you.  But for the rest of us mortals, it is worth trying.  Anyway, food is very affordable.We dined as a group. I initially ordered the Eggs Benedict while most of my office friends ordered the more popular item on the menu, the Beef Tapa. But, at the time, the Eggs Benedict was unavailable because they ran out of hollandaise. I ordered another dish (that I forgot) that was also unavailable. So I settled for the Spanish Sardines Tempura. Anyway, it was not everyday that I get to see sardines being served other than being sauteed with the customary garlic and onion.The Spanish sardines were served with two eggs - I preferred poached - and fresh tomato with basil and olive oil.  I was expecting a lighter coating like that of the regular tempura. The batter or breading on this was heavier but I did not mind. It was sinfully deep fried and I liked it.  The Beef Tapa and Vigan Longganisa were also both served with two eggs and tomato pesto.  I was not able to try the Beef Tapa but judging by looks alone, it did not look dry like most tapas did. But, it was rather oily.Someone ordered the Tuyo and Kesong Puti, for a change from the usual. I was able to try this, and the tuyo or dried fish was a lot saltier than I was used to.I also tried the Croque Madame.  Since it was inexpensive here compared to other cafes, I knew there would be no Emmental or Gruyere but instead, a thick slice of regular processed filled cheese was placed on top of a rather thick cheese sauce.  The dish was filling, after all, they used three pieces of white bread. Sandwiched between the slices of bread were pieces of ordinary processed ham. The poached egg, though, had a strong aftertaste of the vinegar used in the poaching process.  And because of all that cheese, there was this umay factor.Naturally, I ordered dessert. I tried the Grilled Buttered Suman with Ube and Goya Ganache, such a long and fancy name so I expected more. What arrived were probably two pieces of regular suman (sliced into two) that were devoid of sweetness and were drizzled with syrup in two shades, brown for the chocolate and purple, I guess, for the ube.  Not recommended.  Try the Deep Fried Oreos instead, Oreos coated in batter then deep fried to a golden brown. At least they did not use fancy words to lure me into ordering.Hot coffee is forgettable.  Iced coffee was a straightforward iced coffee, instant coffee (probably a three in one), poured over shaved ice, drizzled with chocolate syrup.  The Ice Scramble was packed with nostalgia. Seeing a glass of shaved ice mixed with milk and flavoring, topped with marshmallows, powdered milk and colorful candy sprinkles surely brought back childhood memories of hot afternoons spent waiting for the familiar cart to pass the street as me and my childhood friends await with coins in our sweaty hands.Food...nice presentation but taste was hit or miss.  Prices were really affordable, though.  Location is a little...challenging.  And service could use some improvement since food took quite some time to be served during our visit.

Ordered a Chocnut Champorado topped with tuyo flakes (which is written on their menu) for 80php. Now, does that look like it has tuyo flakes on top? I asked ate girl why are there no tuyo flakes on top. She asked the chef if there should be tuyo then when she came back sabi lang niya "wala daw po yang tuyo." So i was like okay, you didn't even clarify kung ano ba order ko. Then we asked kuya for the menu, eh nakasulat nga na may tuyo. 😭 But I didn't insist na lang kasi my boyfriend was like "chef na kasi nagsabi na walang tuyo." So i didn't bother na lang. My craving was def not satisfied. Wasn't even able to finish my food. Plus, the scramble wasn't as delicious as before. The only reason i'm giving this branch a 1.5 is because of the kuya who took our order (enthusiastic af). Thank you, kuya! You're the best!

Food = delicious and deliciousPrice = Affordable and good servingService = Staff that are happy to serve their customer. You need sometimes really patience towait for your food as it took time sometimes. Ambiance = they only have few fans. Its too hot sometimes.

I would rate this branch a 4, for a good service in the middle of the night, and good food presentation. I will give a 3.5 for the value of food. Serving size is enough to satisfy the hunger and craving of most Filipinos. It is nice that they also have parking space. Would recommend this place and we will definitely be back.
