I was particularly interested in Big Bob's Charcoal Grilled Burgers as it was something I had not yet tried. Plus, I'm always partial to something that's easy to eat. :)
My meal from Big Bob's was scheduled for delivery last Saturday, August 6. I encountered a minor inconvenience when the rider could not find my house and subsequently got lost. City Delivery called me on my cellphone to confirm my address and to make a long story short, the rider successfully delivered my food an hour after they called me. I was not home by then so I asked my helper to receive the items on my behalf. I had just started attending a professional make-up artistry course and well my class was supposed to be over by 6pm but it was almost 10pm when I finally got home. Good thing my Big Bob's meal was all neatly packed and waiting for me. I was famished as I couldn't have dinner in class.
My Wine and Cheese Steak Sandwich was neatly wrapped in foil and then encased in a securely lidded plastic container. I was quite impressed. :D
The burger was huge. Perfect for my growling stomach. It had two juicy beef patties filled with cream cheese in the middle. There were lots of veggies too -- lettuce, tomatoes, onions... it was sooo good.
I also had a Cherry Cake for dessert. I was wowed by how neat it was despite the fact that it was delivered via a speeding motorcycle!
There was also cheesecake and bibingka. Actually, I just finished the bibingka and gave the other two cakes to my hubby and kids the next day.I was so stressed and tired that day because I had been standing for about five hours making up two models for the first time in my life. I drove home with an empty stomach because my back was killing me already and all I wanted to do was to lie down. My Big Bob's meal brought by City Delivery a few hours earlier really hit the spot. Our helper was already sleeping when I got home so at least all I needed to do was pop the burger foil and all in the oven toaster for a bit and then take out the cakes from the refrigerator. It was just so... right. I felt a bit rejuvenated after my satisfying meal.
I think I'll try Bale Dutung next. Now I'm wishing all the Mercato merchants are just a dial or a click away, hahaha! :D
For your food delivery needs just dial 87878 or log on to http://www.citydelivery.ph. There's practically a smorgasbord just waiting to be delivered.
