Lomi. Initially, I was thinking of ordering siomai and lumpiang shanghai, but seeing a picture of their lomi on the counter looking yummy, I told sister I'd just go for this and some siomai. When we got home and opened the bowl, it didn't look as appetizing as the one on the picture, but it was hot and slightly okay. Mom and I shared this.
Siomai. Chowking's siomai is mom's current favorite food. Whenever we go out, she would always request us to go to Chowking so she could eat this. Anyway, she told sister she wanted two orders of siomai... so we bought 5 sets - two for mom, one each for us siblings.
Chicken Lauriat. Sister's meal. I am not a big fan of Chowking's fried chicken (though I liked their Chinese Style fried chicken), so I didn't find this appetizing. Sister was complaining that they didn't include gravy in it (the staff at Chowking assured us that it was complete), so she didn't really enjoy her meal. She also ordered a cup of Nai-Cha, but she already sipped it all before we got home, so I wasn't able to take a picture of it.
Mom and I found the lomi a bit bland, and for 79 pesos, I didn't think it was a good buy (as it didn't have much noodles). Well, I guess I will just stick to siomai and lumpiang shanghai, or maybe go for wanton mami should we eat or take out food from Chowking again.
