My 60th Birthday Bash with my family at PF Chang's with its Pricey and Huge Horse
You are looking at a picture with a gigantic horse behind us. It is one of P.F. Chang’s China Bistro horses which is found outside or in the entry of most of the chain’s location around the world. My family and I had never stepped foot into a P.F.Chang’s before and it’s not on our to-do-list yet. I know what some of my friends are thinking right now. Good healthy food at a Chinese restaurant? Is the food really that great and delectable? Someone told us the lettuce wraps were the best. Is it as expensive as we hear it is? Now more than ever, we are trying to go green in our meals simply because of the abnormally high levels in our blood chemistry test results. So for that reason, Chinese food should be knocked off our menu. Not anymore when we learned that the restaurant uses absolutely no MSG in their dishes. Not only that, there are fantastic options for vegan and gluten-free customers as well. And although the resto is not a nut-free environment, they can prepare meals for people who have nut or shellfish allergies. And because yesterday was a special day to celebrate life with my family we opted to try and experience P.F. Chang’s with a fresh palette.It is known the world over for their lettuce wraps and that was the first thing we tried. The lettuce wraps were…let me put it this way - I was polite and ate two. But I would have been happy to clean the plate off all on my own. There were that good! My children were blown away!
My verdict :
With so many Chinese restaurants in Metro Manila, P.F. Chang is just one of the better places to eat American-Chinese cuisine. It's good but nothing super special except the lettuce wraps. It's not a place that you wake up thinking "I can't wait to go again!"
But I do like the horse –it's my Chinese astrological sign after all - an expensive horse at that ! And the best part of it all : I availed of a SC discount privileges even without presenting a SC card. The PF Chang’s management only required me to present any cards that show a senior citizen’s age and/or birthdate. Isn't that' cool? hahaha
