Finio

I tried to eat at Finio's Php 135 eat-all-you-can breakfast buffet this morning. Today's spread include garlic rice, omelette, sausage, pork tapa, beef with potatoes and carrots, tawilis, pinakbet, congee, champorado, pan de sal, iced tea, orange juice, fresh pineapple and watermelon. Below are my plates:

Champorado and congee


(From left to right) Pinakbet, beef with potatoes and carrot, sort of pork tapa and omelette


Same stuff except for the deep-fried tawilis. I didn't try their sausage because I'm avoiding processed foods. 


Pineapple and watermelon



Everything tasted average except for the beef with potatoes and carrots.  The beef is tender and I like its sauce. The most disappointing dish is their congee which is bland and its just like eating soupy rice.  

I would rate my experience as 2/5. Just go to Grills & Sizzles instead along Examiner St. If I'm not mistaken, their breakfast buffet is also at Php 135. Their dishes taste a lot better than at Finio's. Beside Grills and Sizzles is Bellore which also offers a breakfast buffet. I haven't tried to eat there but my mother said she still prefers Grills & Sizzles.
