There’s nothing like a stroll along Bonifacio High Street after a heavy meal. I remember the first time I went there: that was in November 2006 when Krispy Kreme first flashed the red neon sign in Manila. Back then there weren’t any shops except for Krispy Kreme and Time Zone. Now, High Street is filled with new shops and restaurants to appeal to any tired worker’s fancy. The place was so beautiful I just had to take a few pictures. You should come and visit it one of these days.

For those who love authentic American food, this restaurant is for you. From the looks of their menu, it seems like their specialty is steak, but other fare are also available to tickle your palate. Portions? Large enough for two people with normal Pinoy appetites, but for those who have an extra large “bodega”, one serving will satisfy.
The decor and ambiance is quite casual and people don’t need to dress fancy to go in. The employees are genuinely warm and friendly. For a place that caters mainly to an upscale crowd, Texas Roadhouse Grill does not intimidate.
However, be forewarned. The food is very American, meaning none of the saltiness that Pinoys love will be found here. Condiments on the table are very spartan: salt and pepper and sometimes, the occasional catsup. I was hoping for some kind of gimmick, kinda like Burgoo’s crayons and large paper tabletops, but none of that here. The reason? After you order, the food is served after the 8th minute of waiting (I did time the waiter). The price is above average, but with the quality of the food and the excellent service, I think it’s well worth it.
See the happy smiles? That was before the meals arrived. Imagine the smiles after.
