In the mood for stress eating after failing to score tickets for Coldplay (both in Manila and Singapore), I decided to go try Yo Panda Manila in Megamall after attending the mass near the area. I was just curious, mainly, because I have been seeing loads of Instagram posts of the egg waffles and ice cream combo goodness that this new food chain is to offer. As per usual I chose to order the matcha-flavoured one and well, might as well be in heaven, it is really good (or at least my satisfied palate would say so).
Matcha and ube are special flavours making them quite pricey than the other usual flavours but Yo Panda gives you your money's worth. I just love matcha, alright, hence the preferred flavour but there are just so many other flavours to chose from! It is even better if you have someone to share it with given the enormous size of the actual waffle/ice cream jelly treat. Not only do they serve these Instagram-worthy desserts, they also offer a vast number of options for rice meals and finger foods.
Since I was starving but in a no-rice diet (only when I feel like it ha), I ordered a spicy fried chicken pao (aka a chicken sandwich but they used siopao bun instead of the regular burger bun and surprisingly it has worked. I loved how it has tasted overall.) with fries on the side along with my sumptuous dessert and I just feel so full for hours afterwards.
Further suggestions:
I think it is better to have a smaller portion option on the menu because like I said, the serving is pretty huge that I didn't get to eat it in its entirety (although maybe one of the factors is that the burger meal is heavy on its own). Also, maybe a faster preparation for the meals. The wait is all worth it, don't get me wrong but since we are talking about improving the experience here, might as well be on a roll, yes?
Definitely a must-try and would recommend 100% with friends.
