Ongai’s Where, What, Why to eat
Where: Flapjacks’ Greenbelt 2 (Greenhills also)
What: P1 pancakes!!! April 13-17 from 1-5 PM ONLY (Hurry now!) Btw, it’s max of 3 pieces per table.
Why: Simple. Because of their P1 pancakes, which I wasn’t able to avail:( When we went there it was already 8 PM and we didn’t know the promo was only from 1-5. Nevertheless, I still ordered their fluffy and nice Double Blueberry pancakes since I was just craving for them.
I got the 3 stacks for P345, which wasn’t bad since it was only P344 more than the P1 promo. Oh and there was still tax so…argh!! But it was all good.
I just love how their blueberry topping tastes just right and it doesn’t over power the whole order. I’m not a big fan of butter so I just used half of it even if their whipped butter version looked tempting. Their syrup was served in a shot glass and I didn’t finish the whole thing since I didn’t want my blueberries tasting like syrup but I guess for most, you’d want to “drown” your pancakes with it so go ahead. The good thing about Flapjacks is that they’re generous with their syrup. Just ask and you will receive.
They’re smart too. Since they only serve it in a shot glass, they can control the consumption of the customers – avoiding excessive use (What’s takaw tingin in english?).
As for the coffee, I just love it! Why? Because it’s unlimited for P75 only. I know you won’t go past maybe 3 cups but you can share right? Just to let you know that if you share you won’t be able to refill your thermal carafe/pot. It’s still ok though, if you can get 5 cups from it, it’s worth it.
This brings us to their price, which is affordable especially for a restaurant in Greenbelt. Their prices range from P145 – P495 on a wide range of choices from omelettes, french toasts, Filipino breakfast, International breakfast. If you go go steaks you’d have to increase your budget to around P800. You and your family or date can just share a platter or go for the 5 stacks of pancake. You’re good with that.
The only negative in Flapjacks is that they changed their menu that’s why I’m missing my old favorite, the Egg Benedicts or something like that. So I’m hoping that a manager of The Bistro Group reads this and brings my favorite back. Please!!! So that everyone can taste what I’m talking about. Thank you in advance.
Overall, I really like this restaurant because of its ambiance and fun dining experience. I also love the service their since they’ve got a friendly staff. Oh, and their food is also good for sharing. I do have a big appetite and I get full here so I suggest if you just want to eat right, you just might want to share especially the platters. Hope you enjoy it there just like how I do.
For everyone who doesn’t like blueberry pancakes you can order others I’ve tried:
Pancakes (P145) – Seriously, you might not like blueberries right? So go for the plain ones and enjoy the syrup. You may also try the toffee or the chocolate with strawberry but I haven’t tried those yet.
Flapjacks Platter (P325)- It has 2 eggs, 2 pancakes, 2 sausages, 2 bacon strips and 2 hash browns. Share!
Chocolate and Cream Waffles (P205) – The first time I tried this, it was free since we answered their survey but it was good and filling too. What more can you say about something that’s free lol
So what do you think of Flapjacks? I’d love to hear what you have to say.
