David's Tea House Greenbelt 1: Curse the Dumpling



I told myself that I will not eat out to save money- hey look, a Chinese restaurant located in the most extravagant place in a super industrialized city! Let's eat!

I had been craving dumplings for quite sometime now so finding David's Tea House while I was hungry meant destiny for me.


THE PLACE (3.5/5)
It is located near the entrance of Greenbelt 1 in Ayala, Makati. The place was packed when we got there and it smelled weird inside. Though the sight of the food in the other tables plus our grumbling tummies compensated with the smell.

THE FOOD (3.5/5)
We ordered shark's fin dumplings, of course, and I was disappointed!

It tasted so weird and... fake. You get what I mean? I saw some misua strands inside so it looked like leftovers blended by flour- I don't know! I couldn't even finish one bite. Good thing the rest of our orders were good.

Their beef brisket noodles is okay. A little bland for my taste but at least the beef is tender. Their pancit canton is my favorite. I'm not a fan of those instant pancit cantons but maybe I just needed to try the freshly cooked one. It had veggies and pork liver and meat that I love. It was flavorful too.

I also love the fact that they serve tea for free (I love free stuff, most especially free food). Maybe that's why it's called David's tea house. Oh, I'm so smart! Just kidding.



THE PRICE (4/5)
Shark's fin dumplings- Php 95
Beef brisket noodles- Php 195
Pancit Canton- Php 130

The price is okay for a Chinese restaurant. Although that 4-piece shark's fin dumpling should've cost less. I have so much hate for that dumpling. I have been craving for weeks and that was what I got?! *flips table*

THE SERVICE (4.5/5)
Their staff were accommodating even with the number of guests.

OVERALL (4/5)
I would go back, try other food like congee, and recommend this to others but not the shark's fin dumpling.

EAT WITH YOU AGAIN NEXT TIME!
