il mercanti food bazaar - Metrowalk

It sucks to have a schedule like mine. My classes usually start around 5pm, ends at 9:30pm! PM guys!! but hey, i got used to this schedule. It means more study/preparation time during the day for those terror profs :s Anyway, what really sucks about my class schedule is that most restaurants are already closed by the time i leave school. bummer right? and by the time i leave school I am so famished that it makes me irritable!! sorry but you wouldn't want to be near me when hunger strikes!! haha add to that the traffic and those crazy bus drivers along edsa on the way home. So by the time I arrive home, what's left of my food choices are fast food establishments. :s Yes, fast food's great but not for everyday meals!!!

One super hungry night, we dropped by metrowalk to look for a decent meal when we saw their parking lot converted into this food bazaar!! You wouldn't believe how ecstatic I was just seeing it! It not only means I can get dinner for a very affordable price but also that I have a looooooot of choices!! I've been to several food bazaars and there are stalls that sell almost the same kind of stuff. Hurriedly, I went around and looked for that unique meal that hasn't been offered in the food bazaars I've been to. Look what I found:

Pares by Pares ni Mang Juan (70php) I definitely recommend  this, great value for super yummy food.

The pares meal I had was delightful and not just because I was hungry but it was really good! One thing I don't like about food bazaars like this is that the food they serve are most often cold already. But for this meal, I saw them reheat my food in the stove! Plus points for hot meal! But before I could totally dig in to my meal, I had to pick out the star annis from my meal.   See below what annis looks like haha

Star annis

I had squid balls too but it was a little pricey for 20php. But hey, I was craving for it!

What you'll love about Il Mercanti is that there's a huge eating area for its customers!! And you won't worry about finding a clean table since they have hired help to clean up after a customer dines.

Of course, the night wouldn't be complete without dessert. So we looked around (again) and look what we found!

Dulcinea @ il Mercanti

their cream puffs are a must!

We left Metrowalk with super satisfied and food filled faces. We'll definitely be back!!
