Marikina is slowly emerging as a new destination for foodies, with restaurants and food park popping out in every corner of the city. I have a lot of those on my must-try list, which makes deciding on what to visit first extremely tedious each time we are around the area. It took me a lot of thinking before finally landing on Balestier.
Balestier is a new restaurant within San Roque. We used waze to locate the restaurant, only to realize that I always pass by this place on my way home from this city!
Thankfully parking isn't a problem since the restaurant has their own parking space. The design of the restaurant was also pretty neat. It's composed mostly of the combination of brown and black shades, with glass windows and doors with black lining.

I asked a foodie friend about his experience, and that's how I decided to order their laksa tsukemen and hainanese chicken.

What delighted me most about this visit, apart from the humble vibe of the restaurant's interiors and the delicious food, is the overall value for money. The pricing isn't that cheap, but the portioning is a good enough justification for it.
I'm very happy to have picked Balestier to be my "comeback" to Marikina after months of not being able to drop by for foodtrips. I definitely recommend this place to everyone.
Hungry for more,
