My husband is one of the regular
customers for RJ's -- inspite of my stringent reminders that he needs to
retrain from eating fatty foods like Bulalo.
My husband ang his colleagues usually drop by the place for lunch
after burning some calories from their basketball game. Since he is
restricted to eat Bulalo, my husband tries his best to hide his food
escapade at RJ's Bulalohan.
Unfortunately he always gets caught thru FB. A “lamon” mode post
at FB is posted right after some food trip at RJ's.
The food must be really good for my husband really insisted we
have a quick lunch date at RJ's that day.
As anticipated my husband ordered
their Bulalo Special. On the other hand I had some Ampalaya Con Carne to cut
down the fat intake. They have a lot more to offer but since it was just the
two of us we just ordered our favorite dishes.
Special RJ's Bulalo for just Php 270
Ampalaya Con Carne
Their
Bulalo is really meaty and tender, it was not fatty at all. I guess that is the
reason why my husband seems to support RJ's Bulalo. It may not be as perfect as
Tagaytay's Bulalo, but it is the next best thing -- if you do not have the time
to drive all the way to Tagaytay. The serving was very generous for 279.00 pesos.
We are unable to finish the entire bowl as it is good for 3-4 persons. The
broth was really beefy but it is never the same with eating Bulalo in Tagaytay
– the hot broth is always at its best when it is eaten in a really breezy and
cool place.
Up, Close and Yummy
Fish Sauce and Kalamansi
The sinful bulalo marrow
The highlight of course is the bulalo marrow which is
best eaten with fish sauce and kalamansi. I must say it something to really
crave for after an intense workout. As the marrow melts with the fish sauce and
sourness of the kalamansi you would want to have more rice to really enjoy the
Bulalo experience. :)

RJ's Bulalohan is a must place to visit. Aside
from their Bulalo the other food that they offer is really good. Their Ampalaya
con carne is not bitter at all. I love it so much, I even cooked a
replica of it a day after our RJ's Bulalo experience. Like the one at RJ's the
bitterness is not traceable at all and the blend of the sweetness and saltiness
of the sauce is just right. TThey also added in some bell peppers for that
aromatic taste and tausi for the authentic taste. But what really made the dish
complete is the tender beef strips in oyster sauce.
We
were really satisfied after our meal. For desert and pasalubong we just bought
some Dunkin Donuts which is just located outside of RJ's.
Who says you can't find happiness in small and simple
things? :) Not us, as happiness will always be just around the corner.
