Brew Haus Pub & Eatery has recently opened at Mc Kinley Hill. Aside from beer as implied from its name, I was eager to check out what Draft Gastropub's little brother has to offer. So I'll go on with the food...
Food
Pub Bites
The Ghost Wings claims to be the spiciest wings in the Metro. It makes use of Ghost Chili which is the world's hottest chili. Oh man! I'm telling you it's not just a claim. Upon serving, it already spread and intimidated all my companions with its strong pungent scent. I managed to eat two of these but with the bleu cheese dip. I haven't tried an intensely spicy wings since Chilli and Ink. It's really sensational for a spicy food lover like me.
For those who want to be safe and enjoy the less intense buffalo wings, the Classic Chicken Wings is for you. It's got a flavorful sauce with a tinge of fieriness to tickle the taste buds.
The Chili Cheese Fries is actually the fries version of a chili con carne.
I found the Chicken Garlic and Chiptotle Cheese Fries to be interesting.
Whether you go for the zesty flavor of the Brewhaus Nachos Asian Pulled Pork or the sweet, hickory and savory Brewhaus Nachos Barbecue Pulled Pork, you can't go wrong.
Although I'm generally not a mac and cheese fan, I found the Mac and Cheese Bites fun to munch on.
If it were me, I'd be satisfied with this simple Nachos and Chili Cheese Bean Dip.
If you can't decide which finger food to go for, get the Brewhaus Fry Basket which is a mix basket of house fries, beer-battered fish fillet, breaded cripsy chicken fillet served with tartar sauce, ketchup and garlic dip.
Mains
For the Meatballs, you can choose between spaghetti or rice. I'm used to having it with spaghetti so I went for it. This is an affordable, delicious and hefty bowlful.
The Asian Pulled Pork Rice Bowl is essentially the same as the nachos. The Asian dressing actually goes well with any staple.
You can opt to have your Pork Schnitzel with fries or rice.
For chilicon carne lovers, you can have the Chilicon Carne Rice Bowl for a meal too.
For the a wholesome US Angus beef patties, I find the Salisbury Steak to be a great choice. You can also choose to pair it with mac and cheese or steamed rice.
I'm not sure if I was just enticed by the rest of the dishes I tried but I found the Brewhaus Fried Chicken to be my least favorite. It seemed like the usual fried chicken to me.
Gourmet Grilled Sandwiches (Add 15 php for wheat or multigrain bread)
One of my favorites is The Cubano. It's got a wonderful play of flavors and texture with the pulled pork, cheddar cheese, emmental cheese, dill pickles, ham and chiptotle dressing.
If you like classic grilled cheese, the Triple is definitely what you must order. The blend of the cheddar, mozzarella and bleu cheese is simply delightful. If you don't like bleu cheese go for the Double instead.
The Grilled Cheese Burger is a burger with grilled bread instead of buns securing the 1/3 US Angus beef patty.
The All American is another successful hit for me because I love sloppy joe!
I was curious what the Bacon, Mac and Cheese would look like. Consumption-wise, it wasn't for me.
Desserts
Now, I confess I really don't like chocolate chip cookies. But, I was blown away by this Vanilla Pot De Creme. The thin, light and crispy chocolate chip cookie crumbs and very smooth and creamy vanilla pudding was just so perfect together that I couldn't stop digging in for more.
Drinks
Tsinoy Foodies Verdict
Brew Haus Pub & Eatery is a wonderful addition to Mc Kinley Hill. I'm sure residents and employees in the area would love to swing by for their drinks and affordable meals. I don't know any other place that serves gourmet grilled cheese sandwiches and I have to admit, there are days I'd crave for one.

22 Prime is well-known for its steaks. But, that's not all they offer. Under the wing of Executive Chef Gerwin Bailon, they now offer affodable lunch special that vary on a monthly basis.
Food
From September 1 to 30, 2014, you can try these five new lunch specials.
The Seared Ahi Tuna is cooked with precision. As you can see, each equally thick tuna piece is seared perfectly. Each bite brings out the natural flavor of the tuna. It is served with an arugula salad with balsamic and pesto dressing.
The Veal Schnitzel with Marble Potatoes and Wilted Spinach is a hefty serving so I suggest this for sharing. A bite through its golden brown crispy coating is followed by its thinly sliced succulent and tender pork meat.
The Herbs Crusted Fish with Crushed Potato and Beans with a Spicy Tomato Sauce makes use of a fish that's feshly available for the day. I love how its so rich in flavor but gentle enough to keep you wanting for more. It is served with french beans, oh-so-yummy crushed potato and spicy tomato sauce. The spicy tomato sauce is really fiery so applying a few drop will suffice.
The Chicken Mushroom Risotto with Parmesan Crisp is my favorite! The chickenn was moist. The mushroom risotto had a rich truffle taste. The parmesan crisp is divine!
The cut for the month of September is the USDA Angus Prime Center Cut Sirloin served with Bearnaise sauces served with twice baked potato, arugula and sauteed vegetables.
Last but definitely not the least is the Coffee Tiramisu that completely won my heart and taste buds. Coffee lovers like me couldn't help but sing praise over its rich and aromatic coffee soeaked sponges coupled with cream. This is the best tiramisu I've tried yet!
Tsinoy Foodies Verdict
A visit to 22 Prime is not just for steaks but also for their cozy ambiance, excellent service and affordable lunch specials that will keep you epicurious each month.

Brotzeit German Bier Bar & Restaurant has been a common recommendation by family and friends we tried it a few months ago.
I haven't been to a German restaurant for a very long time so I didn't know what to expect. It's been decades ago when I dined at the presently closed down Schwarzwälder in Makati.
It has a stylish pub interior with heavy wooden-polished tables matched with leatherette covered benches. The place was dim so each table was lit with candle light.
Food
Bayrische Brotzeiten (Cold Appetizers)
The Brotzeit Brot is german bread topped with leg ham, emmentaler cheese and cream cheese. It also served with red bell peppers, pickles, cocktail onions and egg on the side. This is good because the leg ham was of quality. I'll try to mimic this for a party serving some time.
Platten (Platters)
Since there was 5 of us who will be sharing the meal, we ordered the Brotzeitplatte. It includes a pork knuckle, best sausages, pork schnitzels and 2 side dishes of our choice.
It didn't look humongous on the menu, so we were quite surprised when a long wooden board full of these were served.
When you say "Best of Brotzeit Sausages", it's really vague right? It gave me the feeling that what they serve depends on what is available. So we had 1 Pork and Veal Sausages (the white one), 2 Garlic Pork Sausages, 2 Spicy Chicken Sausages, 2 Smoked Pork Sausages and 1 Pork Cheese Sausages. All were delicious!
The glorious part is the Pork Knuckle. Look at how gorgeous it is with its perfect golden brown crispy skin. The meat was tender and succulent that we all suddenly forget how sinful it was.
Since I wasn't the one who ordered, I initially thought this was some sort of fish fillet. But upon first slice, I realized it was Pork Schnitzels. This is a very good rendition. The batter is just right and the pork meat is almost pillow soft.
For our first side dish, we had the Spatzle which was buttered. It was a rather dull accompaniment.
This was one of the heaviest meal I've ever had hands down. Maybe we should have asked the staff if they meant German persons or normal Asian persons before we ordered this. =p
Drinks
Biermischgetranke (Beer Mixed)
Of course, drinkers would want to try their beers so my little sister tried the Russ'n. She seems quite please with her weissbier with lemonade.
Tsinoy Foodies Verdict
Brotzeit German Bier Bar & Restaurant offers a cool German eating and drinking experience. It's a must try if you want to immerse yourself into the German food culture. But, bring some company and prepare to shell out a bit more than customary.
