Have you been in an argument with anyone about where to eat? How many times have you been told by someone, or said it yourself "Kahit ano or saan nalang!" (Anything or anywhere!) when asked where to dine out? Hubs and I often argue about this. Sometimes, I'd pick a place which he doesn't like. He'd say his choice and I'd say no too. And we go in circles until we end up eating somewhere we've been at a thousand times or not eat out anymore.
That's why we use Zomato. I find that we are able to easily decide where and what to eat when we use the Zomato app on our phones. When we are having trouble deciding, we check out what's Trending This Week. When we are feeling a little adventurous, we go to the list of Newly Opened places to try out up and coming restaurants. Now that Mila is getting to be a handful at restaurants (she loves to eat by herself and make a mess), it's lovely to know Kid Friendly diners we can bring her. What really helps us decide is the fact that each restaurant on the list has real reviews from real people. It does not only give us the details - location, price point, menu, etc. It also tells us if customers actually enjoyed the place versus the press release from promoters. I am a visual person. I must admit I order from what I see and not all menus have pictures with them. Checking the restaurant's reviews and the food selfies from those that had been there helps me a lot. Thus way, I know what to expect and it makes ordering easier.
This Valentines, hubs and I didn't get the chance to go on a real date. We attended a family event in the province and Mila was feverish because of 6 teeth all bursting at the same time. Not to mention that our yaya left the same day without notice.
Hubs gave me a flower and a chocolate bar which is real sweet, but I still want a real date. It may be a couple of weeks late until we're abke to schedule this so I want it to be well planned. Simple but nice. No argument on where to go. I already decided on where to go, with the help of Zomato. I will treat hubs to Wild Ginger. He definitely deserves this as a thank you for driving 12 hours straight to get us home safe. And it will be a (very) late Valentines date for us too.
Now please help me decide on what to order. Follow the steps below to WIN P2,000 GIFT CERTIFICATE FROM WILD GINGER and ZOMATO.
1. Add your email address on the comment section of this post so I can contact you if you win.
2. Also comment below the price of one (or more) Wild Ginger dish you love or want to try. Click here to see the menu posted in Zomato.
4. Share this post publicly and use the hashtags: #MSMHBlog #ZomatoPH #WildGinger
5. Bonus: If you have a Zomato Account, go to Wild Ginger's page in Zomato, pick a photo, and share it on your Facebook or Twitter accounts. Don't forget to make the post public and use the hashtags #MSMHBlog #ZomatoPH #WildGinger so I can see it.
Simple and easy, right? This will run from February 16 to 28. I will randomly pick one winner that I'll announce 1st week of March.
So please, comment your menu suggestions and help me plan my date with hubs so you can have your own date too.

Maybe you can ask someone from ginger to make a table set up for your date and have the cake styled with the sweetest message written on top of it. :) Good luck on your date. :)

I want to try an extra ordinary meal and a twist on my food this love month.
I want to try TOM KHA GHAI 165php (the name sounds interesting) and its a classic Thai Dish with chicken cooked in coconut milk. Wow I would like to have my chicken cooked in "gata" which I haven't tried.
Roti Plata with Curry Dipping Sauce 155php, Beef Rendang 285php, and feast is not complete if didn't try the National Cuisine of Thailand which Pad Thai 245php and as the review says it is a food worth trying.
A nice Lemon Grass Tea 95php to sip while having a chit chat with my love ones.
And with all that spicy and tangy food, I would like to finish it of with Sticky Toffee Pudding.
(Have it prepared in advance, sa bahay palang gawa na ng paper na tape on a short stick or paper na may simple message "Thank you for loving me" give it to the waiter and advise to serve pudding with a message on top.
A nice restaurant with a good meal for a date is worth a try. Prices is just an amount.
Sabi nga nila minsan lang naman ang importante memorable.
I would love to try Wild Ginger's Stuffed Roti (Chicken) - P170.00, Premium Oxtail Kare-Kare - P275.00, Lamb Adobo - P285.00, Asian Crispy Pork - P245.00, Herbed Green Rice - P75.00 and Gula Melaka - P75.00.
ReplyDeleteHave a candle light dinner, order the best sellers from Wild Ginger and have some wine with your hubs. You may want to book me and my partner so we could romantically serenade both of you with your theme song or your favorite song. ^^

I've never tried Zomato, I should. Would make things easier for me and hubby to make decisions on where to go. My husband pretty much decides on where to eat, he just makes me think it was I who chose the place...but I realise later on that he made me choose the place! haha
ReplyDeleteAll the best and hope you'll have a great dinner at Wild Ginger. I'm sure it's going to be a good night for both of you.
ReplyDeleteLooks like Wild Ginger is worth a try. I have always love to give a flower and a chocolate bar to my hubby. Thank you for sharing

ReplyDeleteStart with the Asian Tomato Soup and both entice your taste buds with the best spices that only east Indies can offer. Follow-up with highland red rice (for its known health benefits) and combine it with meat combos (for protein and energy benefits to fuel your hubs) such as the Asian Crispy Pork made more special with the soy-chili dipping sauce; the delectable Thai Beef Penang curry; the signature Wild Ginger Chicken adobo made even more delicious with secretive pre-war recipe. Let him try the laing and crispy twailis too. Break odd with sweet dessert gula melaka and made him burp more with ending zips of lemon grass tea.

i think whatever you choose,your hubby would love it!
I've tried Wild Ginger before and enjoyed it! On my next visit to Wild Ginger, I would love to get the Pad Thai at P245. The P170 stuffed roti (chicken) also sounds interesting, I've never had a roti sandwich before. Maybe you guys can try out the Pad Thai too, and re-enact the famous Disney Lady and the Tramp scene hehe ;)

ReplyDeleteI would love to try Wild Ginger's Beef Rendang P285
I think it's so sweet you still want to have a belated Valentines Day celebration with your husband. This should be a romantic date so I would choose the Vietnamese Spring Rolls for your appetizers, Thai Beef Penang Curry for your main dish and Sticky Toffee Pudding for your dessert. I hope you and your husband have a great time during your date ( :
Some say that their bestsellers are the Roti Prata
ReplyDeletean Indian flaky bread for P115, Pad Thai
their popular version of flat rice noodle dish for P245,
Hainanese Chicken
with 3 dipping sauces, soup, and special hainan rice for P295 and Beef Rendang, their Indonesian Beef Stew for P285 (also order extra Thai Jasmine Yellow Rice
for P60, they say it's also yummy!).
When I go to some new restaurant, I always ask what their bestseller is and that is what I order. Their specialty is the best they could offer you to make you want to go back and be a regular customer at their restaurant. As they say, "First impressions last." It is true for me actually because if their specialty is not that good for me, considering their price and the location, there will only be little chance that I would go back.
