Work has started to pile up and so as the stress along with it. Yes, we were hungry but we were avoiding rice so as not to over-eat and blame stress later. We started our search then. It’s already a bit late for lunch and we didn’t wanna walk further for food. Luckily, as we stepped down (via the escalator), we were greeted by Razon’s.
It’s not a fancy place, but looking at their menu, it offers a few typical comfort food. It’s already been two years since I ate at their branch is Sun City and maybe it is worth another try.
At the counter, we were determined to skip the rice meals. Instead, we ordered Halo-halo (Php65), Dinuguan (Php79), Puto (Php10/each)and Palabok (Php65).
When we entered the place, there were only two other groups of customers by that time. However, it doesn’t take long for the others to flock in. Our food were served after a while and we were excited to eat them (and take pictures before eating them).
The Dinuguan is derived the from the root word “dugo” which means blood. This was surprisingly good. It’s definitely not bland and is uniquely sweet. To be honest, this brought me back to my high school years, it’s the same dinuguan served in our canteen which I frequently bought since it only costs Php5.00. Ideally, it is best paired with puto. However, their version of puto did not quite match well with the dinuguan. They were too sweet that it can survive without the Dinuguan or vice versa. I was expecting to get the white ones but these were served to us. Maybe it’s not available on that day, who knows?

The Palabok was too much. And I meant it in a good way. One serving could fill two tummies already. It has thick noodle strands and a generous palabok sauce. Maybe some more eggs and I could have rate this higher.
To finish our meal, we present to you their best-seller. Their halo-halo is perfect! It has perfectly crushed ice, to make it a hassle-free experience, and a right mix of ingredients, from the milk, sugar to the i-don’t-know-what-are-they. Typical halo-halos are colorful but theirs were not due to the limited ingredients in it. This allows our taste buds to enjoy and figure out the taste, unlike the others that would overwhelm your senses (vision, taste). And let’s not forget the leche flan on top it. I actually ate it last and exclude it from the halo-halo.
