It's rare that I enter a restaurant on a whim. I normally plan my visits from the when to the (most importantly) why. The why ranges from I-want-to to I-was-invited-to and to the rare, all-of-the-sudden-I-have-to. My trip to Full Belly Craft Kitchen falls under the last one. I was on my way to a cafe in the Scout area (under I-was-invited-to category) when I changed my mind and asked my driver to make a u-turn and to take me to this interesting kitchen of fat and cholesterol in Esguerra.The entrance is not friendly to PWD and even to seniors. One thing: there's a very big possibility of dying not from cholesterol from eating in Full Belly but trying to negotiate the short but seriously steep front.Good thing that an alert and pretty server was there to assist. A brownie point for Full Belly. She led me to the inner part of the restaurant which was dark therefore not friendly to taking photos so I opted to stay near the door. It was quite warm but not uncomfortable. So, I started studying the menu (the menu in website is not updated) and decided, God have mercy on me, on the Bagnet Sisig (chunks of crispy pork with pig's brain with egg, onions, green, bell peppers, green chilis and sriracha mayonnaise) and Garlic Rice with Home Brewed Iced Tea.The Bagnet Sisig was good. Everything about is tempered. It was mildly spicy (hindi OA) and the crunchy (not crispy) texture was slightly makunat. Don't worry, it was not the annoyingly leathery type. Its the kind that you play with it inside your mouth (for a short while) before you eventually swallow. One more important thing, the Bagnet Sisig is served in a round sizzling plate and not in those heavy sizzling plates which is shaped like a cow (just like what they use in some smoky eateries that serve lukewarm beer and rough, fatty, second class steaks immersed in runny gravy).As of the service, the female servers were attentive and do not hover that can be irritating. They suggest but never push. And that for me is a big thing.Am I returning? Yes, definitely. I just need to be certain that I have my precious, life-saving Catapres with me when I do. Mahirap na.

The Bagnet Kare Kare and Tuna Belly were both yum. The servers were attentive as well. The place lives up to its name as we left the restaurant with happy tummies. Overall, we liked our dining experience except for how the serving size was a bit small for the price.

To have breakfast at Full Belly Craft Kitchen last August 21, 2017 was the best decision of the day. There are three points to prove this: first is their delicious food, the prices were a bit expensive but were worth it. The servings were huge and the tastes were great. After eating with just two orders (with rice), there were still enough food to take home. Second was their friendly staff, they were attentive to serve what their customers need (eg. pouring your glass with water) without even being asked to do so. It's like they know what you need before you even realize you need it. Lastly was the ambience, it feels very homey and comfy which makes the customers relax while doing their own things. The whole dining experience in the Full Belly Craft Kitchen is unforgettable that it will make you want to eat your breakfast, lunch and dinner here on the same day.BTW:1.
