Okay, I was just being lazy which is why I didn't make the Gumbo entry a single one. But in any case, here are the main courses we ordered:
Main Course 1: Grilled Pork chop
Looks appetizing, doesn't it? The buttered veggies were good (my friend and I both agreed on that), but the mashed potatoes were a tad bit too buttery tasting for my taste. The pork chop was good, it was medium well I think, but there were some parts which were too burned that it tasted like charcoal. I think it was meant to be a single serve dish, as compared to the other dish we ordered as an entree.
Main Course 2: Seafood Jambalaya
My friend shared this entree since I realized I couldn't finish this by myself (yes, I picked this entree, but the pork chop was suggested to us since we weren't certain what other entree to order). It was absolutely good, and it is no wonder that it is their best seller. It was not spicy, by my request, but it was very flavorful. It was also not salty despite the shellfish and various seafood included in it. My friend and I had a good time finishing it; in fact, it is the first dish that we finished! Although they said that the portion is good for 2, I think that if I were hungry enough I will be able to finish it by myself! As for my friend, he said that if he didn't need to share it he could have finished it alone.
Total bill was ~900php including the service charge. We didn't get drinks since I was worried we will not be able to finish all of our food if we had drinks as well. For the quality of the food, the price was worth it. Also, we got it cheaper than we would have if we ordered each dish separately. It was definitely worth the visit, and I'd recommend it to my other friends as well.

End note: Yes, we were able to finish everything, despite the lady manager saying it was good for 4-5 people :D
