Mang Inasal Halo-Halo is the Creamiest

Leave a reply

If adobo is the Philippines’ national dish, we think Halo-Halo should be declared as the national dessert. Filipinos and tourists love to eat halo-hallo whatever the weather may be. Especially, when the sun is scorching hot. And of all the halo-halo in the entire archipelago, foodies have declared that the creamiest is Mang Inasal Halo-Halo.

Halo-halo is a popular Filipino dessert which is a rich concoction of various ingredients such as nata de coco, ube, leche flan, pinipig rice, etc. mixed with evaporated milk, all topped in crushed ice and with the option to put ube or vanilla ice cream on top. It can be said that halo-halo represents everything deliciously sweet and indulgent in the Philippines. It contains specialties from around the country. And it has many different permutations in every part of the Philippines.

Mang Inasal Halo-Halo is the Creamiest

Almost all Filipino restaurants –here and abroad — have this dessert on their menu. But one known Filipino restaurant has taken their halo halo game to the next level and they are hailed as the creamiest Pinoy Halo Halo of all: Mang Inasal’s Pinoy Halo-Halo.

From full meals to light snacks and delightful desserts, The Vegan Dinosaur has all your vegan cravings covered.

Salads

The Vegan Dinosaur serves up filling healthy salads. Of course.

People automatically think greens and tofu when they hear vegan cuisine. The Vegan Dinosaur has all of it in one irresistible dish. Tofu cooked barbeque style on top of corn, lettuce, and onions. With a creamy dressing to bring it all together. It might be a bit cliche but it is definitely not boring.

Full Meals by the Vegan Dinosaur

People assume that vegan dishes are boring, light, and can hardly make you full and satisfied. Vegan Dinosaur proves that assumption wrong with their meal offerings that will satisfy even non-vegan diners.

Blogger Miel picks the Spicced Asian as one of her favorites by the Vegan Dinosaur.

The Spiced Asian is a complete meal with Teriyaki Tofu as the focus of the plate. The savory tofu is accompanied by Black Rice, a side salad, and kimchi. It is a delightful dish bursting with Asian flavors. It will make your tummy full without the guilt.

And here’s another blogger recommended dish, Chickpea Meatballs.

Here’s another filling dish to try: Chickpea Meatballs. Technically, those are not meatballs. But it is just as flavorful and filling. The Chickpea Balls are doused in Sun-dried Tomatoes. Plus, it comes with Black Rice and a side salad with Ranch Dressing. This dish is recommended by Shannen.

Vegan Snacks and Light Meals

If you want something lighter but still as yummy, The Vegan Dinosaur has a menu filled with various dishes that are perfect as snacks or light meal options.

Whether you like them simple or bursting with filling, The Vegan Dinosaur has the perfect healthy wrap to make you happy.
