My family and I recently watched the recent Mr. Bean movie
at the SM Megamall in Mandaluyong City. Finding an empty
parking space at Megamall was quite difficult, so I ended
up parking at the rooftop.

After the movie, tummies were growling so we decided to
go to the Barrio Fiesta restaurant, also inside the SM Megamall
building. There was a merienda buffet available (3pm to
6pm), so my wife and I decided to try it. The buffet had
a nice variety of Filipino dishes, like the fresh lumpia
(without the skin) & sweet peanut sauce, ground pork with
tomato sauce, Dinuguan and white puto, Mami noodle soup,
Goto, Pancit Canton, squidballs with sweet & sour dip, Tokwat
Baboy, and a few more. There was also Puto Bungbong, Maja
Mais, Ginatang Halo, and Sapin-sapin. I'm sure I forgot
to mention a few more dishes that were available.

The food was nice. Nice indeed. I particularly liked the
Dinuguan & puto, squidballs, Goto, and Tokwat Baboy. And
also the Maja Mais, which had just the right sweetness and
corn goodness for finishing off the hearty meal.

And if you don't like the mentioned dishes above, you could
always order Barrio Fiesta's famous Crispy Pata, Kare-kare,
and steamed rice. That was what my mom-in-law, nephew, and
niece had at that time.
