       Another roving bus. What inside? 1 table and a couple of Chair a bit crowded for party but maybe great for family outing minimizing rental of cottage.

     The Shakey Bus really spacious and great for going from places Shakey's stores cannot reach.

Chowking Chow Pao

  Chowking has come out with a new items the Chowking Chow Pao an alternative version to the Taiwan Cuapao

   Below are the four variant of the Chow Pao:  Chinese sausage, Chinese Sausage special, Braised Chicken and the Chunky Beef.

   The Chinese sausage is just like eating your regular sausage with special sauce instead of a bread bun it's the Siopao bun which is much softer. Price :  P25.00 per order

      The Braised Chicken. This is one is much better off than the chinese sausage; it has chicken pieces with lettuce  and has a similar taste to the Cuapao   Price : P49.00 per order

      Below the Chunky Beef and also one of the best. Highly recommend the Chunky beef and the braised Chicken. Was not able to take a bit out of it but my son said not bad almost taste like Cuapao.  Price : P49.00 per order.

     Might have to edit this part for the Chinese Sausage special. Actually nothing special since they just added some strip of fry tofu and some lettuce.   Price  :  35.00 per order.

Personal rating :  2/4
Since the bigger cuapao is a bit expensive Chowking Chow Pao will do as substitute for those craving for the Taiwanese Cuapao
