Borough

 Borough - The Podium, Manila, Philippines





 After a night of watching Midget Boxing...
#itsmorefuninthePhilippines


 Popcorn Calamari - Popcorn crusted fried squid tossed with extra butter for good measure. Served with clarified chili butter.


 Grilled Cheese & Tomato Soup - Grilled cheese in homemade brioche bread. Served with creamy tomato soup for dipping.


 Ever since I was a little girl, Grilled Cheese & Soup has always been my favorite comfort food.
Best part about this meal? They cut the Grilled Cheese into triangles just like my Grandma.


 Chile Chicken Burger - Homemade chicken burger topped with Monterey Jack, avocado and corn salsa.


Chocolate Chicken Wings - Baked wings coated in cocoa and cinnamon. Served with cilantro sour cream.

Borough is located in the Podium Mall in Manila. A restaurant named after the "boroughs" of New York, this place serves comfort food anytime of the day. Two items that stood out on the menu were the Popcorn Calamari and the Chocolate Chicken Wings. I thought the Popcorn Calamari would come out like KFC's Popcorn Chicken but it came out with actual popcorn. Interesting but it was good nonetheless. Oh and the Chocolate Chicken Wings were quite spicy, so if you like heat and you're the adventurous type, order away. But if you're looking for something exquisite, I would recommend the Grilled Cheese & Tomato Soup. My Fiancee and his friends went to the Philippines last year and his Best Friend texted me just to rave about the Grilled Cheese & Tomato Soup. Trust me, a great grilled cheese can change your life.
