Silly Labuyo

Silly Labuyo is located in Shaw Blvd right across Shangri La in EDSA Crossing. It's one the few places in the block that serves alcohol and is open 24/7 but Silly Labuyo is known more for their food.

The name suggests a menu full of spicy dishes and true enough, spicy favorites Bicol Express and Dynamite are there. I wanted to try something new so I tried the Crispy Dinuguan. In my mind, Dinuguan should not have a lot of sauce but the dish was swimming in it. And contrary to what their name implies, the Long Chili was not spicy at all. I also have a pet peeve about sides which do not go with the dish. In this case, the sides for Diniguan was a slice of tomato and cucumber. But aside from those, the dish itself tasted fine. It was crispy as advertised but that's as much as I can say about it.

Silly Labuyo was self-service but the waitresses were pretty friendly and they did tell me to enjoy meal, so that's a plus. 

The ambience was comfortable and it allowed me to take a break from the jeepneys plying Shaw Blvd. 

Final Rating: 3 out of 5
