Foodtrip Bedana's Filipino Restaurant

營業中

休息中

路過這店幾次，不是未開，便是我未夠餓。今天原本專程去吃韓式任吃烤肉，可是看完任取的食物後，連食慾也滅了。走在午飯時候的佐敦，處處是人，是久違了的熱鬧，我們想吃的食店都有人龍，唯獨這店在門外看祇有一對情侣在吃，也好，可以靜靜吃一場午飯。選擇困難症發作好一會，才選定炸豬腳、燒雞飯和啤酒。静静的喝着冰凉的啤酒，聽着歌，耐心等候即做、逐份做的食物，先來的燒雞，雖然是set lunch ($68)，但絕不求其，好一隻大雞脾，咬第一口已知非同嚮，雞肉醃得入味，皮脆肉嫩鲜香，吃到尾還是每口都熱辣辣，雞脾是用心生燒(不是蒸熟再求其燒燒)，才有這效果，配煎蛋白飯和蒜香豉油，簡單的滋味，in heaven!後來的、份量十足的炸豬腳 ($138)，果然是鎮店之寶。坦白說，港式德國豬手，即使在餐廳吃，也是吃一百次，有一百零一次炒，死咸、硬、充滿防腐劑 (因為用超市貨色再加工）、貴，所以今次我也完全不抱期望。但是那盤炸豬腳剛送來，那肉香已令我改變決定，剝了一小片炸豬皮先試試，那不單是不得了的香脆，更是豬皮下的油脂也被炸得特級香糯，而且又完全乾爽，一點油的踪影也沒有，怕油如我，也即時完全放下防線，拿起整隻豬腳吃，皮好味外，豬腳的筋骨也極香軟，夾着骨與骨間的肉吃，喝口酒，是人間滋味！吃開了胃口，決定試試Banana roll，是薄pancake 包着香蕉，coat 了糖再煎，配雪糕和chocolate sauce，這樣美味精緻的甜品，祇是$38，What more do you want? 繼續閱讀

ok so, i came across this restaurant on the social media story of a mutual. in the story was a pandan-looking dessert, it looked so good that i dm-ed for the name of restaurant, turns out it's Bedana's! (this is beside the point, but can we normalise dm-ing social media mutuals on things like this already?? i mean, what happened to the days when we see someone holding a gorgeous bowl of soup and sauerkraut on the street, and you'd nonchalantly ask: "hey that looks gorgeous, where can i get that?" they'd say: "it's right here you idiot, but it's fine it's a valid question and you aren't making me feel unconfortable at all!" boom, what a normal interaction... is this a normal social media interaction? I DONT KNOW) so the name of the restaurant is acquired, i had to reach out to one of my favourite people to try it out (turns out they know of the place already, which was like: rude, you didn't care to bring me here before??). we got here on a really rainy sunday night and luckily got seated right away. it is a short menu, which is always a great sign. the friend suggested longanisa and laeng, i also picked the kare-kare, but honestly, i was preoccupied with the dessert that turned out to be mango pandan, and i was just sort of waiting for us to get to that part of the meal. the longanisa was served in about 5-8 mins, it was good food. the sausage had a good balance of sweetness and saltiness, it was meaty-chonky but the fat and spices were there- i couldn't tell what were the spices, but they cut through and it was real flavourful. the egg was also fried nicely with little craggily bits. rice? fine. slice of cucumber and tomat? thank you. then, the kare-kare and laeng arrived. you know how sometimes you look at certain food and despite haven't had it before, you'd think to yourself: i probably know what it tastes like? I HAD NO IDEA WHAT I WAS GETTING INTO, which caught me, in the most pleasant way possible, very off-guard. i had a spoonful of the kare-kare. the first obvious note was the peanut, but there's also an immediate unidentified creaminess / sweetness / umami-ness that coated my mouth (note: i swear i could still taste the stew the day after when i was telling my colleague about this place, it was that crazy). i should at this point make the disclaimer that i don't know anything about filipino food, but i am almost certain what i was tasting was a really rich bone broth, and as my dear friend put it, the broth tasted like it took time. it also reminded me of instant noodles broth / tinned corned beef - the way they are PACKED full of flavour in an ethically-dubious / questionable production way, but also of fond childhood memories, eating a forbidden food; this kare-kare tasted like it took time and care, and painted a history that i would love to learn so much more about. the pak choi was a good move (and apparently is the traditional move). the tripe was great. the oxtail was y.u.m.m.y., i tore off the morsels of meat easily and slurped that bone marrow clean. aubnergine and green bean was so good too. in a way, the kare-kare over-shadowed the rest of the meal. i mean, don't get me wrong, the laeng was also a beautiful plate of food. it was creamy, to me it had an almost smoky quality to it? an incredible addition to the meal for sure. but i was at that point flabbergasted, a little bit like that shaking face emoji. the mango pandan got here and we also got a banana roll. the banana roll was top notch. the roll was thin and the caramelised sugar was delicate, combined with the sweet and tangy fruitiness from the banana and a little bit of the cold and creamy mouth-feel from the ice cream, makes for such a great combo. the mango pandan was also very nice, but it wasn't as mindblowing as the other foods, and i will just say that i don't think it really calls for the ice cream (or it could be a taro ice cream? i am guessing the restaurant didn't make their own, which is absolutely fine, but in this case i don't really need it, not shade). but i cannot complain at all. i LOVED the food here.i continued to rave about the food to my friend when i was having the leftovers the day after, and they were like: ugh, why don't you leave me alone and just write a page of this *somewhere else*. so here i am. would recommend. 繼續閱讀

Food is alright. Be aware of the misleading menu. Drink is not included if you order a la carte!! The menu is misleading and the waitress is dishonest. We clearly asked the waitress if drink is included if we order a la carte dishes and she said yes and $5 off for other drinks. At the end they charged us full price for the drinks. And she blamed us for not understanding. It ruined the whole experience. 繼續閱讀
