[@user-tx9gs5ef8o]

The sweetest and most respectful food vlogger I’ve ever watch.

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

Thank you so much for your very kind comment🙏

[@evangelineangeles8392]

I agree with you

[@mind_in_repose_now1256]

Iconic restaurant in Manila! And the best part is, ordinary Filipinos like me can enjoy it because it is reasonably priced and the food is delicious!

[@edgu71eg]

is this walk in or do you need reservations?

[@jamesdove8021]

It's great to see Christmas traditions in other countries. Looks delicious. Merry Christmas! 🎄

[@ikiddyounot]

Almost criminal how well-priced this buffet is, given the spread and quality! Everything looked immaculately prepared and presented. Also - I tried champorado for the first time recently as well and loved it too - so comforting and delicious!

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

Isn’t it like the best dessert ever?😋

[@micheleboyle3547]

I watched this video while I was getting my homemade macaroni and cheese ready to put in the oven for Christmas dinner and just loved this! I want to wish you a merry Christmas and I hope all your viewers and yourself have a prosperous and happy new years! What a fantastic buffet! ❤

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

A very merry Christmas to you! I can’t imagine anything better than hot baked cheesy macaroni and cheese😋

Once again you are shining the channel with your beautiful video. Thanks Tim

[@susanmgd]

You are so polite, Tim! Nice that you address the Buffet servers and anyone that provides you service (like the cab drivers) by their first name. It makes the experience more personal. I know that they appreciate it so much. Your reviews are on point. I just started watching some of your videos and enjoyed them very much. Making me hungry every time. Thank you and please continue to post more food reviews.

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

[@gemmacaragdag4574]

Thanks for visiting and tried eating Filipino dishes at well known couple chef at their ancestral haus here in Manila, Philippines. I hope u have a great time here. Wish u MORE subscriber tim❤️

[@heatherrennie2692]

Omg the food there looks so delicious. I would love to visit there and try the buffet. I like the idea of servers dishing out the food. Some people touch some foods and then like touching meats then bread or other foods. Also, I've seen people go to the bathroom not wash their hands and straight to get more food. Specialty the kids. They don't think about it. I like the cleanliness of this buffet. Tim, you had your hair cut. Looks very smart.

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

That was a very good setup! The tongs at a buffet is pretty much touched by everyone. They are pretty quick as well

[@glitterstar4210]

Filipino food is soo underrrated but yet its very unique, its a melting pot of flavors, i thank God growing up eating these food

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

I’m missing the food right about now

[@xraydonnie1]

Tks for the excellent presentation in the beautiful home of the owners and chefs

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

A very great experience, and hope you get a chance to try if you happen to be visiting

MERRY CHRISTMAS Tim🎄☃️🎉I think you feature this place before. The place is sure very festive. That food looks like it was very well prepared. I love a good empanada. The crust must be flaky and crispy. I hope it taste good too. I think the place specializes mostly on Filipino food. Bon appetit.

We went there just last month based on your video. My wife and I and many family members. It was great and very affordable for a large group. We arrived one hour before opening and took many photos outside. The Chef wasn't there, I wanted to tell him we came because of your video. One question Tim: I have always wondered, how do you not weigh 400 pounds with all the great food that you eat? Thanks John D in Pennsylvania

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

Thank you so much for reaching out and glad to hear you had a good time. It’s not a fancy buffet, but just good value, comfort food. You’re very kind and definitely hitting the gym on my end.😉

[@melissalambert7615]

That was some buffet and a lovely building. Cannot believe the amount of rice you ate. That alone would have filled me. But so many lovely meat in sauce dishes. Many I've never heard of before. As much as I love seeing those fancy layered desserts in some places, my heart is with a small cake with a topping. Would loved to have tried the yellow cake with mozz cheese. I can see it working, mozz is so mild and creamy. Best to you in 2024 from Corvallis Oregon, US.

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

Thank you so much! It was a lot of rice and more than I intended to eat. Really enjoyable and I also learned a lot of the new dishes as well.
