Jatujak in Megamall

They say the Filipino and Thai food are very similar, especially when it comes to two fantastic ingredients: bagoong and green mangoes! This is why Thai food is so good in Manila - especially when the restaurant serves Bagoong Rice!

Javi and I had lunch with two of my good college friends, Rissa (my future sister-in-law) and Danes at this restaurant called Jatujak in Megamall. Great find, Javs!

Being the epitome of efficiency, Rissa orders for us. Danes looks at her cellphone. Waiting for a text from Dean, maybe?


Bagoong rice! Bagoong, eggs, sour green mangoes, and a little bit of onions. YUM! Check out the Chicken Satay in the background, too! Bagoong = shrimp paste

Pad Thai (sorry - we had already gotten from it before I remembered to take a picture of it)
