I love Filipino food. Cabalen food, I would happily recommend to many Filipinos I met BEFORE but not anymore. Most of their foods now are very, very oily. Today, we bought their menudo and binagoongan with rice . Both were SO OILY/GREASY !!! Menudo has less meat with many fillers. The taste is more of a hotdog flavor than menudo. The fish paste they used is spicy for binagoongan. Not all people eats spicy food. The rice today is soggy. My parents would scold me if I cooked rice like this. I thought the rice will save the disaster binagoongan and menudo but It cannot. We threw away all of them in the garbage. The kakanin- 3 pichi-pichi, 1 kutchinta, 1 Biko, 1 maja Mais are too sweet, the grated coconut not as fresh and there is slight after taste of an old container were they probably kept for a while. It took us only few bites to decide we need to stop eating and dump all this food in the garbage. We bought extra large orders of menudo and spaghetti to be brought to a relative but we also decided to dump them, untouched! If we cannot eat them why we let our friend and relative eat them.
Im sorry Calabalen the quality of your food is not as good as before. Its scary unhealthy for anyone. We were at the park to eat what we ordered and met a Filipino couple who got the same comment about your food.
We wish Cabalen could improve the food that they are selling. Sad that we decided not to go back to any Cabalen restaurants. Today is the last day. Hope you still thrive. Thanks if you read this review.
