Hubby and I always go here fo dinner. Our first experience was exceptional. Food was great! Service was awesome! Price is just right! Which is why we never stop coming back. Quina gives us not just food but comfort. Quina is our second home.
The foods are so good. We always order roast beef, kinilaw (tanigue and tawilis), balot ala pobre and crispy tawilis that is our favorite. We also loved their grape shake and cakes.
If you want honest-to-goodness food to deeply satisfy your hunger (and even angst) on days you tirelessly hustle, Quina is the perfect go-to fuss-free hangout to cap your days. Try their Adobo sa Gata, lengua and Kare-Kare and you’ll get my drift. Their dark chocolate cake also has just the right amount of sweetness. My hubby always takes out their Balut Ala Pobre for me because I am constantly craving it. I eat it soon as he gets home no matter how late. They also serve an array of cocktails to pair with the food. I like that their mojito and rum coke versions are not watered-down. And they just opened up another branch in Mother Ignacia, Q.C., which is great for non-Marikina residents! Bring your whole crew or your big appetite -or both-and guaranteed, the night will always be young.
#TheFoodCrawlers taste MARIKINA Part 1 (4/8 Restaurants) After a marvellous lunch at Karnevore we decided to cool off here the next hit on our foodie eat list. Finding this place maybe hard and if you do, it might looked closed, but just barge in and call for cake, it will surely make them wake.Our group #TheFoodCrawlers shared the following; Yema Cake, Brownie Walnut Fudge Cake, Red Velvet Cake ,Carrot Cake, Old-fashioned Chocolate Cake, and Blueberry Cheesecake. The advantage of going with a fun and happy group is that we get to taste a lot of the restaurant’s items.The Old fashioned chocolate cake is in our opinion the only cake that stood out from the many we sampled. Maybe because we enjoy simple chocolate cakes. The rest didn’t strike us as something to look forward to returning.So what does this place offer? The cool ambiance and the space good for groupies like foodies. eater.ph
After a satisfying lunch we headed to Quina Pastry Shop.Like other restaurants in Marikina, this was also a house turned into a food haven.Quina is just somewhere in the streets of San Roques. It was hard to find because the signage was small and not that visible.Quina was along Gi Fernando (formerly Tuazon), just turn right on BDO and go straight. That’s Dragon street and just keep watching the left side and look for the yellow QUINA sign ( The NEW No.37 )So we ordered these cakes: chocolate cake, nutty brownie cake, dulce de leche, red velvet and Carrot Cake. We also had coffee to match our cakes.The one that stood out was the Carrot cake – moist, soft, not too sweet and not to airy.The least I liked was the Yema cake/ dulce de leche which was dry. It tasted like it was kept for days already and It was too sweet for me.The Food Crawlers | TFC
It’s not the most visible storefront, and the door is always closed, but they’re open. As you walk into the shop, you would realize you see the entire counter and dining area.We sampled several of their cakes and in all honesty, some were good some were just meh. The real standouts for me would have to be the Brownie Walnut Torte and Carrot Cake.The Old-fashioned Chocolate Cake was pretty good too – straight-forward, quality chocolate that wasn’t overly sweet. Didn’t like the Blueberry Cheesecake as much – the cheese was very weak. I reckon it needs more mascarpone cheese in it. Also the Yema Cake does feel a bit dry. Overall, Quina has tasty enough cakes at reasonable prices but not worth going out of your way for. Don’t let my review keep you from trying Quina though. I, personally would like to comeback and sample their entrees. The Lengua Estofado in particular sounds really interesting.
After a filling lunch, we headed to Quina Pastry Shop for some desserts and coffee. The ambiance is relaxing as it has a Greek/Mediterranean vibe. They also offer some meals, cakes, and drinks.We ordered red velvet cake, brownie walnut torte, chocolate cake, carrot cake, blueberry cheesecake, and yema cake. For drinks, most of us had brewed coffee while I had iced cappuccino.My favorites would probably be the brownie walnut and blueberry cheesecake. The brownie walnut torte was moist and gooey, as they offered to warm it up. It has a good nutty flavor and not to sweet. The blueberry cheesecake was divine. The right blend of cream cheese complements all ingredients.Surprisingly, the carrot cake went well for me. Usually they are very sweet and the cream cheese frosting has to balanced it out. The look of their frosting was dry, but it turned out really creamy and good. I like that they don’t make their cakes too sweet.My least favorite would be the Yema Cake. It was dry and grainy. The yema didn’t moist the cake and added dryness to it. The cheese on top dried out as well and was hard.I was disappointment with my iced cappuccino because it wasn’t iced. It was chilled, I guess, but not the coldness you are after. You can request for ice though.The place is good for studying, meeting or just hanging out. They have a tv there as well if you want to catch your regular shows.
