Yes, the restaurant reminds One Valenzuela of the late DILG
secretary Jesse Robredo.
The very first time that One Valenzuela ever tasted the food
that Robredo’s offers was when One Valenzuela’s office bought some binalot (rice, red egg, viand of
tapa/tocino/adobo etc., and tomato wrapped in banana leaves) for lunch.
Binalot (Php60.00) take one! Action! |
Apologies for the blurred photo: steaming rice! (Had to take the photo immediately since One Valenzuela's pretty hungry already after minding all the library database and many other library thingy.) |
After buying staples at SM Supercenter , One Valenzuela’s family decided to cross the road and try out some open air dining at Robredo’s. Robredo’s offers Filipino and Chinese cuisine.
Hello, Robredo's! |
Dining area of Robredo's |
Yes, a television! |
Robredo's menu offers one with many choices. They have sizzling plates, binalot, hotpots, dimsum, salads, soups, and lots of main dishes. It took One Valenzuela and hubby a while to finally place their order.
One Valenzuela and hubby both decided to have Robredo’s
Tocino Binalot (Php60) and Little One Valenzuela ordered the Adobo Binalot
(Php60). For their drinks, they asked for some Nestea Calamansi (Php30 per
glass).
The drinks came first. One Valenzuela thought that the iced
tea was just made from, well, the powder iced tea that is commercially available
at groceries. But then, some calamansi seeds are visible at the bottom of the
glass.

As One Valenzuela waited for their order, more families came to dine at Robredo's. |
After a while, the binalot
came from the kitchen.
Binalot take two! Action! |

While eating their binalot,
hubby asked One Valenzuela to order some more. “Let us try something
different”, hubby said. Adobong Igat?
Tapang Usa? Since they are already a bit full, they ordered Adobong Igat (Eel,
Php160) and not have the Tapang Usa (Deer).

Fruit Salad (Php50.00) |
After paying the bill and several burps, One
Valenzuela's family went home with happy tummies but still thinking of having Tapang Usa next time they visit
Robredo’s. And yeah, One Valenzuela might ask the staff on their future visit if the owner is related to the well-loved DILG secretary (curiosity bulb turned on). ^_^
