It seems that workplace eateries are slowly evolving; what used to be called a company cafeteria is now re-styled as a food court, with various fast food brands each seeking their own market niche. I had a meeting at the GT Tower along Ayala Avenue, and found myself having lunch at Lola's Kitchen, which is today's glorified version of the turo-turo carinderia. The meal consisted of a meat viand (I chose pork humba), rice, vegetables (chop suey), soup and a glass of sago gulaman, all for P125. I understand that other buildings in the Makati area have cafeterias that charge only P75 for the same meal configuration, and you can probably even get the same meal at the ubiquitous "Jolijeep" turo-turo stalls for only P50, but hey, come on give em a break--Lola's Kitchen is located in a Class A building with high rentals! Well, don't expect anything fancy though; food court meals do tend to have a generic but acceptable flavor.
