OF CHARITY AND SAVORY RESTAURANT

One of the things I love about my son's school is how they value simplicity and service to others. Grades and prestige may be important, but it's not the ultimate priority and end-goal in raising their students.

That's why I was happy when his class had a retreat with some "kuyas" who were studying and boarding in their special housing. Mati stayed there for 3 days and 2 nights and bonded with his partner who was also working as a computer technician during the day.

My big guy said he learned a great deal about money and appreciated the blessings. He felt bad how he would oftentimes take these "gifts" for granted when other people were such in need. He was so grateful for the experience because he was able to see a different side of life with the help of his "Kuya."

The Yub, Andrei, and I fetched him and was able to hear Mati's testimonial. We also met his "Kuya" and had a nice chat with him. We were supposed to eat there but decided to just go out so that the guys from the charity house could enjoy all the donated potluck foods for themselves. We were hungry though so we just decided to eat in the first restaurant we'll see on the road.

With that, we saw SAVORY!!!

SAVORY RESTAURANT!!!

THE ORIGINAL SAVORY RESTAURANT

We absolutely LOVE the chicken at Savory restaurant -- so juicy, so tender, and so very right with fried rice!!! I have fond memories of this special fried chicken because it is what my dad used to take home to us hungry little chickabees when he's late from work! It's such great news that many branches of this Chinese treasure has opened in Metro Manila. And though some people may confuse it with the other "savory" Restaurant and that we cannot really tell which is which, one thing is for sure and that SAVORY is the Chinese fried chicken that would always give us delicious childhood memories!

SAVORY

As the menu claims, SAVORY has been with us since 1950! I wonder what was I doing at that time before I got reincarnated to this hot, sexy, beautiful, being that I am??

Oh please don't add crazy and delusional. Ha ha ha ha!

House tea is served to all customers. This is perfect to warm up the tummy before the much anticipated meal ahead!

Since this branch just opened, the owner of SAVORY was still pretty hands on and talked to all the diners in the restaurant.

Either that or he found us too cute for comfort!

Like so?

Don't worry. I'll stop. Ha ha ha ha!

Deciding what to order at SAVORY.

I think I am sort of feverish this night because instead of my usual Coke Zero, I ordered a cold glass of iced tea in SAVORY.

However, if that was the case then I shouldn't be drinking iced tea now would I?

Either that or the iced tea was supposed to be Yub's order and I just commandeered it like I always do.

SAVORY food is here!

Yub and I ordered their 1/4 chicken with fried rice and egg. It is a pretty good deal actually considering it's less than P200.00. I was not able to get the price sorry!

Juicy, plump, SAVORY Fried Chicken! The skin was ultra crispy and tasty too!

This combination may be weird to some but I dig it. Even if I don't really have chicken for breakfast but if I was given a hot plate of this SAVORY goodness with coffee then I'll be gobbling this up real fast!

On a slightly macabre note, Mother chicken meet your son.... Tee hee!

Some people may frown upon the over use of gravy believing that it masks the true flavor of the meat. But what the heck, I don't have a choosy palate that's why it always calls for lots and lots of gravy on my food!

And with SAVORY you get this rich and scrumptious gravy that is so good you'll put it on your fried rice!
