Ja Yums Shakes Pearls - Palompon

The nachos, however, could have benefitted from some of that chicken spice or perhaps a side of sliced jalapeños. As for the chocolate shake I ordered, it turned out to be similar to what we call bubble tea in the States, with plenty of tapioca pearls coming up through the straw. Personally, I enjoyed it, but it might catch some off guard. One downside was that I was nearly finished with my meal before our drinks arrived—though I understand they were quite busy. The biggest letdown was the aptly named "bad burger" (see the pictures below), which reminded me of an old Wendy’s commercial. I think I'll stick to Jollibee for my burger cravings moving forward. While I didn’t try the pasta dishes, they came highly recommended by locals and looked quite tempting, as did some of the pizzas (I’m a fan of thin crust). Overall, it’s a decent little restaurant—just steer clear of the burgers.

The restaurant is a great spot if you're looking for snacks like pizza or want to sample their drinks, but the rice dishes were just average. The stairs to the second floor can be challenging for elderly guests and small children. The interior is decent as well. Overall, I would rate the food, service, and atmosphere all at 4 out of 5.

The snacks were absolutely delicious!
