“We are also looking for the next big food entrepreneur from Cagayan de Oro who wants to bring his business to the next level!” said Anton. “The Mercato markets have been the birthplace of many expanding Manila food businesses like Manang’s Chicken, Merry Moo Premium Ice Cream and Chuck’s Grubberie Fish and Chips. In fact, one of our pioneer vendors, Mochiko Ice Cream, already has a branch here in Centrio!

5 Affordable Meals starting at P99 in GrabFood

Whenever I’m busy at work, I really don’t want to go out for lunch. I also buy food for dinner because we live quite a distance from the city so I end up going home late.  It’s convenient to buy cooked meals.  But when I order, I always choose food that is within my budget. Here are some of my favorite affordable food choices in the GrabFood app: 1. Pork Tocino Rice Toppings and Fried Chicken Dumplings – Siomai sa Tisa, P168.50           This is my first time to order with them and I’m glad I did! I love the soft, juicy, and yumminess of the Pork Tocino. Another thing I love about it is that the meat is lean and not made of fats. You have to try it, guys! 2. Regular Shawarma, Cheesy Chips, and Coke Mismo – JM Shawarma, P157.      Since I craved for shawarma for a while now, I ordered this promo deal from them. Unfortunately, I didn’t get the Coke Mismo because of the shortage these days. I shared the cheesy chips with my colleagues and they liked it! 3. Or iginal Sisig – Butcher’s Best
