Fast forward to years later, Lido would take the route of Savory by splitting the business to Lido and Salido. Lido is the more modern casual dining version, a leveled up version of Chowking to some, but for me, the place still has the memorable food of yesterday.
Located at UN Avenue, beside Tempura, this used to be the old location of Alex III. Lido still has the great rice toppings I've grown to love. And their siphon coffee is of course, one of the best.
Lido's Asado (iamge from their FB page) |
When you say Lido, the word asado follows. Known for their asado, Lido serves it even early in the morning. The asado is tasty, tender, and works well even without the sauce. Unlike in other establishments, their asado is not food-colored and has the signature char brown color.
Asado Primera |
Their Asado Primera has slices of tender pork asado, and very sumptuous egg fried rice
on tomato sauce. Although this is served for breakfast, you can order this all day upon request.
Also available are an army of rice toppings with their signature brown sauce. After tasting one too many, everything may taste the same.

They also serve dimsum and noodles. With branches all over the metro, Lido is a great place to unwind, whether you want to dine with the family or a quick lunch break. Instead of just going for Chinese fastfood, why don't you drop by Lido?
By the way, there's a breakfast crowd at the UN Avenue branch during weekends, expect lines.
Budget: about 150 - 200 per person
