Top 5 Animo Eats: The Best Foodtrip Places in the Archers’ Territory
1. 8065 Bagnet
Would you believe me if I told you that they serve Bagnet in a classic Filipino dish, such as Sinigang? This place is exactly where you should head to when you’re tired of the usual fast food and are feeling nostalgic for mom’s home-cooked dishes. With prices ranging from Php 105 to Php 115, you’ll definitely get satisfied by their generous bagnet and rice servings. Don’t miss their Classic or Spicy bagnet for a jumpstart! 8065 Bagnet is located at Leon Ginto Street, just a few walks away from the De La Salle University and DLS-College of Saint Benilde campuses.
2. Barn Manila
Barn Manila is known for being one of the star places to be at for people who are fond of the famous Lasallian tradition, ‘Happy Thursday’! From its diverse choices of cocktails and shots, nobody can resist Barn Manila’s party aura. Beyond what it is known for, Barn Manila offers one of the cheapest yet best steak meals for T-Bone and Porterhouse steaks with prices ranging from Php 110 to Php 130 and that will surely leave you wanting more! It is best accompanied by an ice-cold bottle of beer and a couple of good friends to talk to.
3. Starr’s Famous Shakes
Thanks to Starr’s Famous Shakes, you can now enjoy a sweet alcohol-free drinking session at Taft! Although it’s located at Sherwood, one of Taft’s best beer pong places, it doesn’t serve the usual ‘Happy Thursday’ drinks like the other bars alongside it. However, what’s great about Starr’s is that they offer a variety of milkshakes in Red Velvet, Cookie Dough, Mint Cookies and Banana Nutella flavours! Skip the alcoholic beverages once in a while and let Starr’s milkshakes capture your sweet cravings for as low as Php 80 to Php 95!
4. Flaming Wings
If you’re planning to enjoy a meal at Flaming Wings, don’t miss out on ordering their famous Fried Oreos for dessert for only Php 75! Stash out Php 130 from your wallet and you get to choose your own dip, sauce and drink to pair with your chicken tender or wings, as well! Flaming Wings is located below Archer’s Nook Dorm, 5624 Taft Avenue – just within the vicinity if you and your blockmates are up for a quick lunch or merienda.
5. Rob’s Asian Diner
Last but not least, I would definitely recommend Rob’s Asian Diner if you’re looking for affordable Asian cuisine. It’s located in front of Saint Scholasitca College, hidden between the many milk tea stands along Leon Ginto Street. They serve various Asian dishes like katsudon, tonkatsu and gyudon for as low as Php 75! But what I like most from their menu is their Spicy Sizzling Sisig, which comes with rice and iced tea for only Php 65. Try it out!
