Burger... Burrito...
or Both?
Well, I had a Chicken Quesadilla (Php135.00, 4 big wedges, had to take one home!) but the tummy was as happy! They shouldn't be stingy with their salsa tho!
I first encountered ARMYNAVY concept resto in Tagaytay. I first thought that it was owned by a former military person, but was surprised that it was owned by the same people who owned and conceptualized Yellow Cab!
I always order the Chicken Quesadilla so I can't give you much variety. Is it good? Oh yes, it is. Especially if you're a cheese lover. However, I think it lacks that Mexican "oomph" - I still think the now-gone TAQUERIA CHILANGA (used to be at the Greenbelt Foodcourt, below the cinemas) has more authentic tortillas and salsa!
I also tasted their Burrito (which my dad ordered) , same comment! Yes, it's good but something is missing. Kulang sa kagat :-)
ARMYNAVY has stalls in Tagaytay, along dela Rosa St in Makati, Glorietta 5 and in Trinoma (I think) They said they'll have The Fort and Ayala Alabang branches soon.
I must say I am not a hot and spicy food person, but I really like jalapeno. The only chili I can stomach. I also like the exciting tastes and flavors of Mexican food (umm, have to go easy on the beans, though!) Ah and the only alcoholic drink that I really (truly) liked was a mojito*.
Now, if only I can find authentic sopapillas* here. Sigh.
*Mojito - I found out just now that this was originally a Cuban drink! The Cuba version uses rum, but the Mexican version uses tequila (of course!) with lime, mint and sugar syrup. Here's the mix . For now I have to try the virgin kind tho ;-)
** Sopapilla - a Mexican dessert - thin, fried flat bread sprinkled with sugar and usually served with honey . I found a recipe here. Hope i can try to make this someday!
