Chili Con Moo

Lemme share what I had for lunch-- Gourmet Pao's Chili Con Moo siopao on wheat dough.



It's a wheat dough siopao filled with corned beef, chili powder, chili garlic and onions instead of the usual asado or bola-bola filling.



The verdict? Well, nothing much to expect. It's just like eating a corned beef sandwich. It's supposed to be spicy because of the chili powder and garlic but I didn't taste any spiciness in it. Good thing I only ordered the regular size (P60) since the grande size would cost you P120 which I don't think is worth it. Since the dough is made of wheat, it's a bit chewy and more filling than the regular white dough.

first time I heard about chili con moo. :) I guess if they used some other filling or made an extra effort to cook cornbeef in some other way, it would be much better. And oh boy, it is pricey :)

that reminds me of plato wraps... hindi rin masyado nakakabusog... :D but for 60 pesos, I think you'll only get the regular wrap... ang mahal na talaga ng bilihin ngayon noh?

I agree, it looks like plato wraps. Do they have other fillings like asado or tuna? maybe it'll taste better. yum!

I personally like corned beef sandwiches or just plain old corned beef, but I don't think I'll be checking this one out. Doesn't look very appetizing either.
