Yen Yen


Monique had a hectic weekend while at her retreat, and to cap all that hullabaloo, we decided to have a family dinner at Yen Yen Taiwan-style restaurant along P. Guevara in San Juan.  This restaurant used to be located along Granada St. in New Manila, but that was such a tight fit--this location in San Juan is much brighter and allows bigger groups to dine in.  The food concept is Taiwan street food, and we enjoyed the same in a prim & proper setting.





We started the meal with crispy pork intestines, which was yummy, but wreaked havoc on my uric acid levels.  So much for my diet!  The three cups chicken was spicy, just enough for the oomph to hit our tongues.  Chami noodles came in hot, and had just the right amount of sauce; I don't like eating extra dry noodle dishes.  The disappointed though, was the onion cake, which was on the tough side--probably a wee bit over-fried for me.  Our bill came to around P400 per head.  Waiting time wasn't bad, we were in and out in about an hour; we were also delighted to find out that they deliver around neighboring parts of San Juan.
