One Saturday morning after working until midnight the night before, I came into work only to find that I wasn’t scheduled to work. I was about to go back home and sleep when I suddenly remembered Seafood City is open at 8am. I called up my buddy Ron as he was about to get off from an overnight shift and then headed over to his neck of the woods to have some mighty fine breakfast. This place is a Filipino grocery store that has a food court serving some Filipino food. Think T&T except Filipino style. As I waited for my friend to arrive, I had a chance to browse through the merchandise and getting hungry at the same time at the smell of the amazing eats. I gotta say while walking through the aisle that I did feel a bit nostalgic and it did evoke familiarity…it felt like home. There were grocery contents are from all over Asia as well as a meat and fish market in the back. The food court consisted of three separate stalls which are Crispy Town, Grill City and Noodle Street. I wanted to get something from each location but ended up not checking out Noodle Street. The food selection was crazy and it was only breakfast. Suffice it to say my eyes were bigger than my stomach and I didn’t get to finish my Tocilog, BBQ pork skewers (x4), kareoka skewers (x2) and thick mango drink. After a good breakfast with some nice talks, it was finally time to go for a long drive back home and sleep. Although it is quite out of my way, I will definitely come back and get some ube ice cream and maybe some fish.
