Everyday, we pass by Wooden Spoon in Katipunan. You wouldn't actually take notice of it because it is not inviting for passers by. Nothing extraordinary looking. One would think that it is just an ordinary restaurant, the food might not even taste good. But thanks to Geraldine's curiosity, we gave it a try.
For those of you who have read most of our posts you might notice that we both love shrimp/prawns. So of course we HAVE TO order our favorite seafood for dinner. We ordered Wooden Spoon's Shrimp Pampango. According to the menu, these are crispy shrimps served with crab fat sauce. Indeed it is something new but very Filipino. The minute it was served and Geraldine was done taking pictures I immediately got one and dipped it in the crab fat sauce. The verdict: it is a CRAVE HIT! This is part of the main dishes by the way although it seems more like it is an appetizer. This will actually make a great pulutan.

Another thing we would like to share to you is that me and Geraldine LOOOOVE Kare Kare. I think this is our favorite Filipino food. There was even a time when the both of us had Kare-Kare everyday for a week. Given this we did not miss the chance to taste Wooden Spoon's take on our favorite Filipino dish. Their KareKare uses leaner cuts of beef instead of oxtail so that it has more meat than taba. Along with the dish also comes their homemade bagoong. After our first spoonful of Kare Kare Geraldine and I just nodded at each other and kept on eating. We barely even talked. As Kare-Kare lovers our bar is set high. We loved it. We loved every bit of the meat and the vegetables and the sauce and the bagoong. This is a CRAVE HIT so do not forget to order one when you visit Wooden Spoon! :)
