After two weeks of my arrival, I contacted my college friend Shebe to meet her. I've met her at SM Premier Lanang, one of the newest mall in Davao City, to talk about our incoming little gathering for the Chemical Engineering batch'99. We first stroll inside the mall until we feel hungry. I have no idea where to dine, all I know is that I am craving for Filipino food. We end up at HUKAD Restaurant at second floor of SM Lanang.
As Shebe and I are going inside the restaurant, the hosts greet us with a smile. As we are coming inside, I laready like the place; it is small, clean, neat and intimate restaurant, that is my first impression.Shebe and I choose the table to seat in and then the waiter handed us the menu.
We order fried shrimp to start with, then we order our main course of Bicol express, kinilaw, kalamaris, and liempo.
While waiting for our food to be serve, we have a chance to take photographs for remembrance. We never hesitate to approached the waiter to take pictures for Shebe and I together.

| While waiting for our food |
I do not expect that the food is super delicious. It goes beyond my expectation. Though some of their serving size is small, but the taste is great. Their fried shrimpies is so heavenly tasty and crunchy fresh. Their chicken halang-halang ( spicy chicken) and kinilaw are superb. It is my first Filipino super meal since I arrived here in the Philippines, it satisfied my cravings.
I enjoy my time with my friend Shebe, and I am happy with the food.
Shebe and I hadn't eat all the food, so we take out our extra and allow her to bring it. The food prices are expensive, but the food and service are excellent.
