Whenever OpenRice announces its event and it is in San Juan there is always this nagging desire for me to be part of it. First, because I was born and raised in this city so it is for sure accessible for me. Second, I dreamed of scouting and dining in all the restaurants of this city from smallest to large scale and include them in my portfolio. Just recently, I was formally requested to be part of another Eat's A Date and I am the type who has the hard time saying no to other's request, so I gave it another shot. I was there before 6PM and proud to be an early bird.
It was actually my second time to set foot on this restaurant, year 2010 when my officemate and I decided to take out pancit and big siomai one dinner time. It was a memorable night because we were caught in a heavy rainfall just to have something special meal as that day is payday. Since then I never came back although I want their big portions and insanely tasty offerings. It was such a perfect timing when I received a message informing me if I could join the foodies, that time I was really craaaaaaaving for Chinese food.
Taza De Oro literally means 'golden cup' no wonder a lot of families especially during weekends pay this place a visit because they only serve authentic and gold standard Chinese cuisine. maybe it was also coined after the owner's name, Guinto Tan. Isn't it guinto or ginto is the Tagalog term for gold? Open everyday as early as seven in the morning until ten in the evening. Located in Madison Square which you will definitely pass by if you are going to Greenhills Shopping Center. Near schools like Immaculate Concepcion Academy, Xavier School De Lasalle and OB Montessori. As I enter the place, a tarpaulin greeted me way before I was greeted by the dining staff. It says that, "We serve Kangen Water." So what on earth is Kangen Water? Upon researching it is a trademark of Enagic USA and an innovative water technology that filter the tap water that provides high-quality water that can be used for different purposes. It is believed to be an alkaline water that cures everything, but this is a myth I suppose.
