Orchard Road SM Megamall - Review and Feedback

Where to eat in the Philippines... or where NOT TO EAT.

I've been to Singapore several times already. Even went to Malaysia and other Asian countries. What I love most is the unique cuisine of Malaysia and Singapore. This is why when I saw Orchard Road in SM Megamall, I couldn't wait to try it out.

I first saw it several weeks back and it was still closed. Earlier, we went to SM Megamall and decided to give it a try. Ambiance was great! Looks can be deceiving though.

We ordered:
1 sweet and sour pork
1 black pepper pork
1 beef noodle soup
1 Kopi Tarik
1 iced lychee
1 Milo Dinosaur
and a pita with dip (forgot the name)

Our bill was around Php 750.00 pesos. With such a small serving, it's not that cheap, in my opinion.

It was already near 12:30 and without eating breakfast, we were very hungry.

Sweet and Sour Pork with Kopi Tarik

The order arrive 5 minutes after. My order arrived first, the sweet and sour pork. Upon biting my first bite, it was utter disappointment! The pork was old! It was rubber-like with hard parts. The taste was also terrible. I can say that this was the worst sweet and sour pork I've tasted in my entire life! Yes, it was that bad.

Servings were small. Imagine, I wasn't able to finish my food despite of my hunger and the small serving size. Put in the factor that my dad and brother even tried a piece each of sweet and sour pork. They should rename it to, tasteless pork.

Black Pepper Beef with Dinosaur Milo

I tried my brother's viand, the black pepper beef. It was the same, no taste at all. The only taste my tongue can sense is the pepper taste. Other than that, it was just like you were chewing a tasteless gum.

Beef noodle soup with Iced Lychee

My dad ordered the beef noodle soup. The taste of the soup is OK. Just like the free soup given in some of the foodcourts around the metro.

Kopi Tarik? Just order hot water and you know what this tastes like.

I didn't mind tasting the Iced Lychee and Milo Dinosaur because my appetite already went away.

Orchard Road is located in... never mind, I wouldn't recommend it to ANYONE. I felt rip offed. If they don't improve their food taste, that restaurant wouldn't last more than a year!

Don't tell me I didn't warn you.
