First heard of Gringo a few years ago when my former colleagues-turned friends in an office in Makati celebrated our annual December get-together. Back then I had no idea what kind of restaurant it was but to cut the story short, since then I have already liked and enjoyed the foods that they offer.
Known for Latin American dishes such as burritos, quesadillas and nachos, this place is known too, for roasted chicken, beer and more.
Since working again in Makati last January, walking along Dela Rosa St. has been a constant route to Park Square, where I have to take UV Express going home. The memory of deliciously-roasted chicken and nachos comes back everytime I pass by the area, to which the restaurant is closely visible.
Last Wednesday, I had the inkling that it would be traffic going home because of the holiday rushers going home to their provinces in the South. So, I made a decision to have dinner first before braving the traffic and getting a headache. LOL. I tagged a co-worker along as she had the same traffic dilemma to the North.
We ordered my all-time favorite Nacho Grande, Chicken Onion Melt (quesadillas) and iced tea.
We were served with two different sauces, a spicy and non-spicy one, which are perfect for both the nachos and quesadillas. Nachos were great for sharing, and quesadillas, with its salsa combination, weren't bad for 2 people as well.
Our total bill was more or less P700. Reasonable, right? I mean, if you saw how generous their serving of nachos was, with all the garnishes it contained, you might think you would be spending more for it, but no.
It was my co-worker's first time and all she could say was how she enjoyed her first Gringo dining experience and that she will be back again for sure.
Anyway, it was a great come-back to the Palanca branch. See you again soon! :)
