Matcha soft cookie oreos (paki-arrange na lang sa tamang order 'yung words) I did not buy this because I like it, I bought it as per my cousin's son's request. Ako siguro may kasalanan bakit mahilig na rin siya sa matcha kaya binilhan ko na. He liked it that he almost finished everything but as for me, not too much because it seemed like the chocolate taste overpowered the matcha and that's unacceptable for (someone like) me. Haha!! Still and an interesting combination so definitely worth trying. Arte lang ako.

I saw this before in Family Mart although I don't know what its name is.

Instead na nakabalot sa chocolate na almond 'yung kasama, matcha flavor 'yung stick and then matcha bits 'yung nagpapalutong. This one's interesting too but it's not something that I'd buy again. Arte ko diba? hahaha. Nabawasan na kasi talaga 'yung pagka-like ko sa chocolates. You'd taste the chocolate more than the matcha bits so I prefer the one below.

Ito 'yung mapayat at matangkad na version ng Midi Matcha. Bitin lang because a box has only two foil containers but I like this the most among the three.

Balanced ang matcha taste and creaminess but if I were to choose, I'd still for for the Midi Matcha. Bakit??? Iba pa rin kaming mga chubby! Hahahaha! These three matcha products are for those who prefer subtle matcha flavor. Creamy at andun pa rin 'yung lasa ng matcha pero hindi in your face na, "Oy!! Green tea ako!" gets or not... end of post. :))

My wallet committed suicide just to make me feel better. Haha. 😍 #matcha #pocky #meiji #oreo #matcharap #infinitelivessana🙏 #panicbuyingangpeg #rt

Order here. They were a food truck before deciding to put up their flagship restaurant for stability. I'm slow at noticing things like this pero mukhang truck pala 'yung order area at may pedestrian lane pa oh. hehehe.

They are not claiming that they are offering authentic Persian and Mediterranean cuisine but as to what I have tried, their food tastes close to authentic and it is actually good in its own way.

I love the idea of printing out Instagram screenshots and posting them there for other diners to see. Syempre diba, when you're taking time editing your Instagram-worthy picture, one thing that would make you prouder other than having an awesome IG feed is when the establishments you Instagrammed or other people recognize/appreciate your post.

This was my order Beef Shawarma Rice with Keema Meal P 229.00 The first thing I noticed when they served me my food is that the serving size is big.

Keema

Cheese and Garlic Yogurt Dip You get to choose two sauces for your food. I liked the garlic yogurt dip more than the cheese. Maybe it's because I was having rice that I didn't appreciate the cheese sauce that much.

One thing you'd notice when you're eating with your fellow bloggers is how everyone is taking time taking pictures of the food that it gets cold before one is able to have his/her first bite.  No regrets and not complaining because this is HOW we usually are. Mas komportable nga kesa 'yung kakain ka kasama 'yung hindi mahilig magkuha ng pictures kasi kailangan mo pa magpaliwanag at pigilan silang kumain agad. Haha. My order was beef but it wasn't greasy so I had no problem eating my food even if it has already gotten a bit cold.

A closer look of the printed out Instagram posts.

Drop by, experience their food, be part of the story and celebrate friendships at Shawarma Bros.

I tried this mainly because the long lines have always made me curious. Nakita ko rin kasi sila before sa SM Aura.

Churros Clasicos Large (12 pcs.) P 195.00 Hot Chocolate Dip (Large) P 100.00 Infairness naman, I kind of got surprised upon seeing the price. Inisip ko na lang na nasa Rockwell ako kasi. What should I expect, diba? But then I got my order and I instantly thought that paying that much was reasonable. Sulit na.  Ang laki ng churros nila that we only two pieces and took the rest home.  They're freshly fried (in olive oil), the skin was crispy but the inside was soft. But as a chocolate lover, what made me like this more is their Hot Chocolate Dip. Yes, this is simply one of the most delicious churros I've eaten. Gustong gusto ko na nga inumin 'yung dip, pero ininom ko naman sa bahay na nga lang. hahaha! E diba nga, churros con chocolate  'to? Meron bang churros con matcha?! Tanong lang or request lang sa ibang nagbebenta ng churros. Baka kasi bagay. :)

The only thing I didn't like was their location. It was so uncomfortable because as I've said, the line in La Lola is oftentimes long and those people who come and go at the store would see you eating. Medyo awkward for me. Although I'm not dismissing the idea that you're not supposed to eat this sitting down. 'Yung packaging kasi, mukhang pwede mong hawakan kaya pwede kang kumain habang namamasyal. Heard they now have a branch here in UPTC. Good job! Puntahan niyo na kami lahat sa North!!! Hihi. <3

Some of their sushi available.

Dessert area. Grabe!!!! Nakakalula. Ni wala nga ko masyadong natikman sa mga 'to. HAHAHA! Naniniwala ka ba?? :)))

This one's new. Soft-served Vanilla ice cream and Frozen Yogurt. Kakamiss din talaga ng frozen yogurt!

And what is the green-colored ice cream that I am seeing?! Why is it still there and not in my stomach?? Hahaha. Charot.

I love you forever, Sambokojin because of your matcha ice cream! Kaya dapat, forever na rin kayo may matcha para kahit sa'tin man lang, may forever. Edi wow. hehehe.

Different kinds of soba that I wasn't able to try. But I heard that their ramen is good.

Grilling time!!!

HULING HULI. HAHAHA!! My lips are so pale and that means I kept on eating 'cause I had no time to re-apply my lipstick. hehe.

More food options. It's not like I concentrated on taking pictures of the dessert area, it's just that my hands were always full every time I passed by the main course areas.

Pwedeng swan, pwedeng rabbit.

More options from the sweets/desserts section.

Also love that there are chocolate fountains. I wasn't able to take pictures of all the sections but there are definitely a lot more. The whole food area was like an open kitchen so being able to watch the chefs preparing your food is a delight in itself.

Nag jacket para matakpan ang mas lumaki pang tiyan. :)))) Guide na 'yan, ang mukha ko para sa susunod na makita niyo na papuntang Sambokojin e pigilan agad nang hindi sobrang daming pagkain ang ma-consume. Hahahaha. Diet? Diet starts next month. Next month lang ng next month. ;) See you again soon, Sambo SM Mega!! Dadayuhin ulit kahit malayo.

This is the current pricelist of Sambokojin, SM Megamall.

The options and their contact number below. Nakikita pa naman. ehehe
