Blake's Wings and Steaks, San Roque, Marikina

Blake's Wings and Steaks can be found along Gil Fernando, San Roque Marikina.  It's a small 2 story building with limited parking available.  The first floor is just a receiving area while the second floor is the dining area with around 10 tables.

Before going, I checked some reviews on the net and found that some of the positive and negative feedbacks are true.  I read that it's usually full and waiting time is long.  Fortunately, when we arrived we got a table right away.  I also read that the place feels hot despite the aircon.  This is true based on our experience specially it was lunch time then.  More feedback as I go through the pictures of food we ordered. =)

Kani Mango Salad - P195 
We were satisfied with this salad.  Can't say much but "yummy!".


1/2 kg Pork Ribs - P350.00
Tasty and tender.  Happy with this one too.  Of course, most of us ordered rice though we already have pasta.  I didn't order rice 'coz I know I'm more on the pasta but I ended up getting half rice from my friend because of this hehe.

1/2 kg BBQ Original Wicked Wings with Bleu Cheese and Honey Mustard dips - P195.00
Expectations are high since this is supposed to be their specialty.  Good thing, it did not disappoint. =)


Penne Garlic Pesto with Grilled Chicken Breast - P225.00
Sadly, when I scooped a serving, I found a strand of hair in the dish =(.  We informed the waiters and they replaced it with a new set.  I can't remember though if they have apologized.  Anyways, it tasted just ok.  Maybe it was just ok because of the unfortunate incident.

Spaghetti with Dried Tuyo in Olive Oil - P225.00
We didn't originally ordered this but was just a follow up after the Penne Pasta incident.  I've tasted Tuyo pasta in other resto but this one I didn't like.  Salty is all I can taste from the dish.  There was nothing to balance it.  We didn't finish it and ended taking out the left over.  Wish we didn't order this as additional.
