"The family that eats together stays together."
A family dinner would have to be the most important meal for a Filipino family. It is an avenue for each to share their own experiences. Sharing is an activity that can strengthen relationships.
Dinner would have to be the cheapest, but is definitely the ultimate bonding experience any family can have. May it be inside your home or at a new restaurant that can guarantee you a new dining experience that you can share with your family, or even friends.
In planning that next family dinner, I would recommend (with conviction) that you try one of the newest restaurants in Greenbelt 2. Namnam: Comfort Filipino is a restaurant that serves comfort filipino food that your family will surely love.
DINNER AT NAMNAM WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS
Sisig, without a doubt, is one of my favorite filipino dishes. I would have personally preferred this dish to be spicier, but I think people in general will really love the sisig from Namnam. Every piece was absolutely crunchy and flavorful.
Who says Salad is not a filipino food? The "Ensaladang Pako" of Namnam is a regular Arugula Salad infused with Salted Egg and Tomatoes (Filipino version of salad) to make this dish 100% Filipino.
Bangus Belly alone is a very delicious dish, but Namnam made it even better with their "Overloaded Bangus Belly" by overloading it with fried garlic and spring onion toppings to give your regular bangus belly a different kick and burst of flavors.
"University Fried Rice" is Namnam's version of an all time favorite filipino breakfast Sinangag at Itlog. This dish is most appropriate for breakfast,, but to be honest I enjoyed this dish even better for dinner in Namnam.
"Caramelized Patis Wings" is Namnam's version of Chicken Wings. This dish brings you to an experience on a whole new level. I can't see this dish having some leftover meat after chowing down every bit of it. It's sweet flavor with hints of spiciness and saltiness goes deep in the chicken meat. I must say this dish really lives up to the saying "Sarap to the bones".
"Sinigang Short Rib Beef with Watermelon" is included in Namnam's Twists Menu (apparently because of the watermelon). Other than loving everything spicy, I also love food which are sour, and among the long list is Sinigang. This dish did not really meet my standards in the sour department (don't worry I'm always on the extreme side of things), but I must admit the soup gave me a comforting feeling and the beef was really tender.
Namnam's Pancit is on the saltier side, but I personally would want it that way. Its saltiness will really compliment well with the vinegar that they have. The egg on top was an interesting addition to this dish.
Aside from the food, I really love their options of shakes. Their shakes are a combination of 2 or more flavors. I ordered the color green one. You might be expecting this to be green mango, but actually its a combination of Camias and Lemongrass. The combination may sound weird, but this drink is actually very refreshing.
