Snackaroo

When I'm down South, I have chow spots for when I'm in touch with my inner carnivore. I'm easy to please, happy na ako with Sinangag Express tapsi + tokwa and 2.5 na rice (okay, sometimes 3...eek), or a wasabi burger from Charbroiled Burgers... or buffalo wings galing sa..I forgot the name of the place. Basta. In BF, all you have to do is cruise along President's Ave and you're bound to end up somewhere eating happily...with your wallet breathing easily.

Here in QC, I have discovered Snackaroo. And it doesn't serve ...snacks. Think bone-in steaks, gravy, steaming, white rice. I love it. They also serve meat cooked in various ways, but as far as I'm concerned I just want their steak, medium rare (you have to tell the waitress, though. I forgot to do that one time and ended up getting a well done piece---sayang). I love taking that first subo of salted, juicy steak with some rice and graaavy. Ahahahhay. 130+ php, fatty fatty happiness!

Anyway, last week, I was a bit out of sorts, and not quite steak hungry-hungry. So I tried their 'salted beef', which I had been eyeing the past couple of times I was there. The picture over the counter showed a close up of something that looked like corned beef...so okay, I was up for that. I heard Tar asking the waitress if it was like tapa.

The waitress said,
"Parang bacon ho"

Gulay.We were sold.

At parang bacon nga. Crisp and served with rice and atchara on the side. It was good even without any of the usual sawsawan.

Try it!
Snackaroo has two branches that I know of, one's along Jimenez...near Kamuning. The other's in the Kalayaan area.
