Now I remember why this restaurant is familiar. I read about this in Davao-based American Bob Martin's Mindanao blog, in which he said the original Roadhouse in Valencia serves the best french fries in the world (or the Philippines?) Daughter Sarah likes french fries very much (the only reason she wants to go to McDo or Jollibee). My heart bleeds everytime she eats junk food, that is why Martin's Roadhouse review which I first read last year stuck in my mind. A sidetrip to Roadhouse was on my mind when I thought of bringing them to Bukidnon. I like to indulge the kids in the food I ban from the dinner table once in a while. Nganong wa man namo ni nakit-i sa SM?
I checked Bob's update in his blog--Roadhouse has three branches now! Lami pud daw ilang roast beef. Here's his review:
For a long, long time, Roadhouse Cafe has been a favorite restaurant of mine. Problem was, in those early days of my affection toward Roadhouse, they had two locations: Valencia, Bukidnon and in Cagayan de Oro City. Now, I live in Davao City, and those places are quite a distance, so I only got to enjoy Roadhouse when I was on a roadtrip! I always felt that the original location, in Valencia, was by far the best. Luckily for me, back in mid-2007, Roadhouse opened a third location - here in Davao City!
Roadhouse Cafe DavaoYes, Roadhouse has their Davao location in SM City, Davao, and I would say that it is the biggest of their (now) 3 locations. It always seems that they are usually busy with plenty of customers. I wonder why? Well, without a doubt it is due to the great food that they serve there!
Roadhouse Cafe touts itself as a fusion restaurant - East meets West. They feature Eastern foods and flavors (Asian, mostly Filipino) and Western flavors as well (American). There is a catch, though - it’s not fancy, gourmet food. You see, Bukidnon, where Roadhouse has it’s roots, is Cowboy country! So, you’ve got earthy, cowboy food at Roadhouse - both eastern and western cowboy food! And, it works! The food at Roadhouse is great.
I’ve always been a fan of the french fries at Roadhouse Cafe, they are among the best french fries that I’ve eaten anywhere in the world. Their hamburgers are great too, especially the freshly baked buns!
Lately, I have been enjoying an “Asian Salad†when I go to Roadhouse. The Asian Salad consists of lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, mangoes, mandarin oranges, chicken and shrimp, all topped with a great Asian dressing. It is really a nice salad, and I enjoyed it a lot! If you enjoy a salad, give the Roadhouse Asian Salad a try.
On my most recent trip to Roadhouse, I had the Pork Cordon Bleu, which is a piece of pork wrapped around cheese and ham. It is all breaded and fried - very delicious.
Another of my favorites at Roadhouse is their Roast Beef. It is always tender, and includes vegetables and gravy too. You won’t go away hungry!
Give Roadhouse a try - any of the locations! Good food, inexpensive, and a nice ambiance too! You can’t go wrong!
branch ra na nang naa sa SM,sir bene kay ang main is in bukidnon jud daw. so mao cguro gitawag na roadhouse kay naa sa daplin sa karsada sa bukidnon.
