Yummy Chinese Dishes @ Red Palace Seafood Restaurant

I tried looking for other reviews on this restaurant online, but I'm afraid there aren't that much, let alone 1 or 2 entries which are 3-4 pages into the search results page. Too bad as Red Palace Seafood Restaurant offers really yummy Chinese food. I believe it's about time that I post an entry about the delicious food here.

The Best Pancit Guisado Ever @ Toho Food Center - Binondo, Manila

Pancit or  "Pansit" is a Philippine stir-fried noodle dish of Chinese origin. There is a great number of varieties of this dish, using different noodles, recipes, and toppings. 

The word pancit is derived from the Hokkien word pian i sit, which literally means "something conveniently cooked fast."

As you might've read in my brief profile, I'm addicted to Pancit (noodles with vegetables, meat/seafood)... and as far as ALL the Pancit Guisado dishes I've tried (in Metro Manila and in the provinces), Toho's version has got to be the best I've ever tasted.

 Fried Boneless Chicken with Chili and Garlic


Everytime our family eats here, we usually order from the Set Menus. Set Menus range from Php 2,240 to Php 10,324 for about 10-12 people per table. Food here used to be more delicious than it is now. I can't really say that this is the place to go for authentic tasting Chinese dishes. Nevertheless, Shangri-La Finest Chinese Cuisine is still a good place to go to for average-yummy Chinese fare.

I love their Fried Boneless Chicken with Chili and Garlic... it doesn't have that oily, thick breading taste.

Pancit Canton (Shangri-La Style) is just so-so. I've had more scrumptious pancit dishes at Ongpin... and If you want me to suggest the best tasting pancit I've ever tasted, just go to the New Toho Food Center in Binondo.

Sauteed Sliced Beef with Mushroom


As for their Yeung Chow Fried Rice (Yang Chow), tastes average. It doesn't taste as delicious as it did about 5 years ago. In my opinion, you can get yummier Yang Chow Fried Rice at Panciteria San Jacinto where it is just heavenly. I believe the flavor quality of their food has declined through the years... perhaps they have new cooks... I'm just not sure.

Chopsuey Guisado ... average... nothing spectacular...

MY VERDICT

What I Like:
> Price - Reasonably priced, especially when you order from the Set Menus
> Food - Fried Boneless Chicken with Chili and Garlic

Will I Go Back?:
> Yes, especially for family get-togethers

Do I Recommend This Place?:
> Yes. This is also a good place to hold your Christening parties, for those old-school peeps (like our family) who believes it's good luck to have it in Chinese Restaurants :-)
