Shots of Life

As usual, this is another late post. Our work from home schedule was changed from Monday and Wednesday to Tuesday and Friday for a month. With that said, we now have lunch outs every Thursday since we’re home on a Friday. When we are still new with our employer, we never thought that we will run out of restaurants / fast food chains to eat because our office is just beside the Mall of Asia. But these past few weeks, we are having a hard time deciding where to have lunch. Haha. Feeling ko kasi na try na namin yung mga mura kaya yung mga mahal na naiwan, deadma. :p

Lareina wanted to try Soi but I told her that I already tried it so I suggested to go to Jatujak instead. Jatujak serves thai dishes too just like Soi. So here’s what we shared for our lunch.

Tom Yum Chicken Medium or Tom Yum Gai (Php 175) is a soup dish with chicken chunks and vegetables that tasted like Sinigang. The combination of sourness and saltiness flavor of the soup is just right. Also, the serving is big enough for four people.

We are a group that loves spicy food so we got Green Curry Beef or Kaeng Kiew Waan Nua (Php 265). The thick curry sauce was mixed with thick slices of beef strips. The beef was tender, the curry flavor is just perfect and spiciness was average.

We also ordered Fried Rice with Shrimp or Kao Pad Goong (Php 175) which has tomatoes and shrimps. Its taste is just perfect. What’s nice about it is that, it blends well with other dishes and its flavor is not overpowering.

If I’m going to compare this to Soi, I enjoyed Soi more because its flavor is stronger and spicier. But I must admit that I enjoyed Jatujak too because the aroma of the food is not too evident plus the price is cheaper. So if you are craving for some thai food, you can try Jatujak or Soi (or better yet, you can try both. J)
