HOP AROUND

BIGG's Diner with the after FIVE group.

>> Tuesday, October 19, 2010


hey hey hey, i (with ms. joy, tita babes, kuya elwyn and jed) found another must-try resto here in Lipa City.

here's a brief background: From a small take-out window which gave a taste of American fare known to Nagueños as Mang Donald's in 1983 (correct, sounds like Mcdonalds that's why they had the need to stop operation due to some legal matters),  to Nald’s in 1984 which paved way to home cococted recipes such as goto and dinuguan, to Carl’s Diner in 1990 which brought back the American tasteand then, eventually the resto became which is now known to us as BIGG's Diner in 1994. Actually, the Lipa branch is Bigg’s 15th store. I like their ad saying We're good food, not fast food.

and here's what we had:
baby back ribs served with java rice (ofcourse i had plain rice) and buttered vegetables for P189.00
extreme platter (it has fries, chicken, cheese sticks and carrot strips) for P130.00
Southwestern Salad for P96.00
and their large iced tea (which is ms.joy's favorite) for P45.00

for dessert, we had:
Kookie Monster Cake for P39.00 (you know i always have the ♥ for chocolate cakes with caramel filling)
while m' babes had Carrot Cake for P49.00

 i'm not a lover of colorful-modern style but i really do appreciate their interior design. With all the interesting stuff posted and hanged, i think there is really beauty in chaos. The dining area in the entrance reminds me of  typical American restaurants in the ‘50s, then the one in the middle has an interior of a train, they even have these vintage luggage, i really like to experience sitting in there but since all seats were already taken, we occupied the ala-sporty area where you would see faces of Muhammad Ali, David Remnick, and other power athlete, and yes, if you're a couch potato who loves watching baseball or basketball games, let me tell you, you wont miss home, because they have a TV. YEEE! We left the resto as FIVE SATISFIED CUSTOMERS!

P.S. thanks to M' Babes and Ms. Joy for the stomach-ful treat! here's more BIGG's Diner's  photos.

@janelle: try mo din d'yan pag may date ka! hehe. you'll surely love the interior, kakaaliw!

@tina: salivating na? hehe. i'll make a list talaga kaya mag-ipon ka ng bongga dahil treat mo ako ng madaming pagkain pag-uwi mo. at tayo ay mag-tsi-tsismisan tungkol sa mga nilalang na walang kamuwang muwang sa mga matang nagmamasid sa kanila. at tatawa ng madami sa mga walang kwentang bagay sa paligid!

this is not about who i am.
neither does it matter who you are.
these are the pieces of being FREE.

of loving and being loved
of believing
in fairytales and paradise and dragonflies
and of not believing.
of keeping our FAITH.
of rainbow colored sky and black and white
and everything in between.

thank yous.
we will see each other soon.


hugs and hundreds of ♥,
iamfreefall
