One of my good friends been
suggesting, for the longest time, to try Alexei’s Diner & Café along Engineering
Road in Marikina. So last Sunday, we finally went and ate at this place. I
just knew that this place is along the engineering road in Marikina but not
the exact place itself.
We rode a jeepney going to “Parang” in
Sportscenter. You can also ride any jeepney going to this place in front
of EGS/Robinsons Supermarket near Blue Wave Mall. We got off somewhere
between EGS and before the jeep turns left. At first I thought we got off
the wrong place as I didn’t see any restaurants anywhere. But when I
looked up, there is this auto shop/carwash? Along with Alexei’s signage
board. It’s really a hidden place at engineering road.
We got inside and surprised to saw
a restaurant inside. It’s a very nice spacious diner place in a car wash
compound. We seated upstairs as there were a lot of people dining on the
first floor.
Upstairs, I was able to appreciate the
interiors a lot.
They have this nice clock on the other side
of the wall.
Here’s the top view of the resto:
Menu was handed over as we seated.
They have variety of meals and drinks to choose from.
Here’s what we ordered:
Bacon Alfredo
- This pasta comes along with 2
garlic breads. Servings given were really a lot! Not to mention that they
gave us huge amounts of bacon. As in “di ka talaga tinipid sa bacon”.
Not to mention that even their crunchy bacon tastes so good.
Seafood Marinara
- This also comes with 2 garlic
breads. I find their seafood marinara a bit sour, maybe because of the
tomato (I don’t like red pastas or too much tomato sauce). Though my
friend quite enjoyed this meal.
Strawberries and Cream (Php115)
- Totally yummy! I’m not sure if
this there real strawberries included but it tastes like real strawberry
milkshake, just a bit sour (maybe because of the yoghurt?). But it’s
really delish!!
San Miguel Super Dry (Php60)
Overall, there are still a lot of
foods I wanna try at Alexei’s Diner & Cafe. Will definitely come back
for more! :))
