Khalid's

 


Khalid's is a small fast food kiosk right alongside the main entrance of Unimart along Club Filipino Drive.  I didn't give it much thought until Anita and I were overdue for lunch while doing our regular grocery.  A quick meal, I told her; we approached our random choice to be greeted by a delightful whiff of grilled meat.  Their shawarma isn't bad at all; I got the one with an extra helping of savory grilled beef (I was hungry).  It's flavored with spices and very reasonably priced.  I'll probably go back to try some of the chicken offerings next time.

The Husband's Craving

 


Nini and Nette found time to visit Kong and Gwammy last week.  They brought a box of delectable buko pie from The Husband's Craving.  When you open the box, the nutty aroma quickly fills your dining area, and the first spoonful certainly is well worth the wait.  It's a little sweet for my taste, but everyone knows that I watch my blood sugar, so my aversion to sweets is sometimes discounted in the family food rating system.  The pie is packed with creamy coconut meat and the top is adorned with pastry crumbs.  Excellent for gift-giving!
