Angel's food for my birthday

On April 26, I celebrated a milestone birthday (21?) and to celebrate my family and I ate at Angel's Kitchen along Connecticut Street in Greenhills for Sunday lunch. It was my first time to visit but I've heard so many good things about the food, plus it was kid friendly, close to the house and right next to fun Japanese store where I ended up buying mochi ice cream. But i'm getting ahead of myself.


Dining at Angel's Kitchen made me feel like we intruded into someone's house. Should you decide to eat here, you really need to make reservations as the place has limited seating.


There were so many items on the menu that sounded so good, we decided to share them all.  These are the starters: 
Margie ordered this salad of blue cheese, walnuts and apples

huge pieces of salpicao- this went quick!

succulent gambas
Then for the main event, there were so many delicious dishes, you couldn't name one as a favorite
forget Chow King and Jericho Rosales, this orange chicken is the bomb!
 Although this one below was the Manny Pacquiao of them all. How ingenious to make chicken tocino look like barbecue?

As you can see, they are very fond of pairing meat with some sort of fried rice- definitely a complete meal! This was garlic ribs with Chinese fried rice, which my dad liked



This one above was pork binagoongan and pinakbet fried rice. Since I'm allergic to bagoong, I skipped this but it is supposedly the specialty of the house. My sister loved this!



This is what I ordered, lamb curry. So there you have it! Filipino, Chinese, Indian, Spanish (Dad ordered the lengua which said was also yummy). There was so much food, we even took home some for dinner that night. 


We had to leave room for the dessert:












One happy satiated family! As Jack, my brother in law, said: "Eating here is like having someone who really, really loves you cook for you." With so many items on the menu of so many different cuisines, we didn't think Angel's Kitchen would pull off every dish, but they did, and for such reasonable prices. My father-in-law is happy to have found a new place to dine at!


 Thanks for celebrating with me family, I love you!
