Kitchen Greenbelt, you'll keep coming back to this classic

Every time I visit Greenbelt, the first restaurant that comes to my mind is Kitchen. This place has been around for a long time and its hard to imagine going to Greenbelt without this place. I've  been comparing this place to Neverland, where the menu, the staff, the food never seems to grow old. After all these years, the food is still as good. I hope other restos use Kitchen as a case study.

Swirloin Sirloin - The rice in this dish can feed an army

Called Ribbit coz its frog no, its actually pork spare ribs

Swirl Around - Pumpkin Soup with seafood
If you haven't tried this place, their restaurant is set up like a cafeteria with long tables that you have to share with other diners, and  the menu has creatively named entrees (ie Head Master - Deep Fried Squid Heads, Quack Doctor, Adobo Duck Flakes) The pricing is just right and some entrees are good for sharing like Egg On (P 190) Crab Fat rice with Mixed Veggie Omelette. Personally my favorites are:

Caps and Rolls ( P140) - Lettuce Wrap in Hoisin Sauce with crunchy noodles

This is a staple at Chinese lauriats called "Tsun Mwan" It's ground pork with peanuts wrapped in lettuce

Eat Your Spinach P 180 Lettuce, Spinach, Soft Boiled Egg and peanut brittle. Yum!

Lazy Oaf (P195) Herbed Chicken Leg with Spinach, really delicious

Sad news, as of April 2015 Kitchen is now closed.

Spoon Rating

Still the best after all these years
