Chef Laudico's Guevarra's

Lunch was at Guevarra's by Chef Laudico.
********
Reserved a table for 5 but the other travel buddies were busy
with meetings, rehab and mother duties.
There was this note on the table.
They don't have to worry about us. We always eat everything
on our plate and more plates.
Roast Chicken and Crispy Liempo Station
Mini Pizzas and Fried Food
A row of chafing dishes ... all Filipino dishes.
This is my plate. I just had one plate.  
There were a lot of dishes to choose from,  and were all flavorful. 
 
I had dessert first.  Had to get those purple balls (ube pastillas).
They were rich and very creamy. Ang Sarap!
The bicho ball had a soft, creamy center which was really delish too.
However, the mini donut was tough. I can make a better mini donut!
Ice Cream 
I ...  scream!!!!
This looks horrible. Hahahaha.. it lacked the chocolate flavor.
This cake ref display was on the porch at the top of the stairs.
The cakes here are for sale and none of them are part of the buffet.
[I didn't take a photo of the dessert station.  Not worth taking one.]
Queso de Bola Cheesecake ... a reason to go back!
... and ample parking space!!!
********
Thanks Mommy and DF Jannette for the lovely lunch!
I really enjoyed this Filipino Fusion buffet lunch.
