Golden Pavilion, Fontana, Clark, Pampanga

Golden Pavillion at Fontana

***

I ordered the Chinese Set Menu at Golden Pavilion,

even if the waiter discouraged me from choosing it.

He said it might be too spicy for my taste.

Hmmm...  really! He said the magic word, "Spicy!"

Everyone at the table love spicy except me.

Hahaha!

Some kind of corn soup... not spicy. :) 

Extremely hot vegetables!

It's the fried rice that came with the Set Menu. 

I told the waiter to replace with Yang Chow,

but he said, "Pasensiya na po, hindi napalitan ng cook."

I just ignored him and ignored him forever after this.

Pancit ... no shrimps in this noodle dish.

Unlike the one we ordered at King Bee, which had

really plump shrimps.  This one had NONE.

Eggplant with Ground Pork

Hubby and Son loved this dish. Hubby actually ate vegetables!

Fish Fillet & Broccoli 

This was supposed to be Shrimps with Broccoli.

Hmmm .... maybe the kitchen didn't have shrimps

and used cream dory.  Son and Hubby never eat 

cream dory at home but this time they did.

They said it had no aftertaste and had no 

"fishy-ness". Maybe they were really hungry.

Oh but they do have shrimps...  There's Camaron Rebosado.

Mango, Pomelo & Mini Sago

A bit different from the usual Mango Sago dessert served in most

Chinese restaurants.  The pomelo or suha added a teeny weeny

bitter aftertaste to this all-too-common Chinese sweet ending.

This Set Menu costs Php 3888 ++ ... Hubby paid Php 4500.

When you use coupons, they don't give back change.

Kris, Elli, Gale and Son

Kebong is the only one missing.

They are Son's best "band-ies"... (hehe imbento)

... band mates.

Just have to eat at Fontana's restaurants. 

Sayang naman ang food coupons.

But next time,  I will order ala carte and not get

the Set Menu.  We weren't given membership 

discounts since the set meal was a promo.

Oh well ... there will always be a next time!
