Subic Food-venture : Version 2.0 (Day 2)

For our second day, we went back to Xtremely Xpresso for lunch.

We really love their breakfast food and we wouldn't let our chance pass to try their main entrees.

The following were our orders: Grilled Pork Belly (Php 200), Pan Fried Porkloin w/Milkshroom Gravy (Php 190), Truffle Cream Spaghetti (Php 240), Meat Lasagna (PHp 200), and of course, the famous, Big Ben (Php 749).

For the side dish of our main entree, we both had the baked potato.

The Grilled Pork Belly tasted like a sweeter version of your typical liempo,  nothing really special about it. Also, I personally did not liked their baked potato. The Porkloin tasted like porkchops with gravy. The Lasagna, on the other hand was meaty, saucy and creamy, all at the same time. The pasta was a bit overcooked, but the taste made everything ok.

As for the Big Ben, it was just ok, nothing really special. It's like your typical pizza, just 20 inches big. I prefer Brooklyn's 10x more than the Big Ben. I wasn't able to take a picture of the Truffle Cream Spaghetti, but I was told that there was also nothing special about it and that they still prefer the one served in Poco Deli.

For our New Year's Eve dinner, we just decided to cook steak and porkchops ( I LOVE S&R!) paired with hot coco, in our Villa, while waiting for the countdown.

The fireworks display launched by Moonbay Marina left us all breathless. The entire show lasted for almost 20 minutes and it was nothing short of spectacular. Here are some shots:

So this basically sums up our Subic New Year Holiday. If you want to go for a quick R&R and a lot of food tripping, then Subic is definitely the go-to place!
