A quick snack at Pound, Robinson's Place Manila

We arrived early last Monday for a wedding at one of the hotels in the Mabini area. As we were very early, we didn't want to hang out at the hotel while final arrangements were being made at the venue where both ceremony and reception will take place. Since we were near Robinson's Place Manila, we decided to drop by and have a snack. We had a couple of hours to spare so we had time to go around and see where we can have our merienda. We didn't want to eat a lot because of the dinner that would follow the wedding ceremony. I haven't been to this mall and the wife was there only twice before but for meet-ups with friends over lunch. And so we were both surprised to see a lot of options, a lot of places to eat at that we haven't seen in other malls that we went to before even prior to the pandemic.

One of those was Pound, which had a simple enough menu (for us). And so we ordered some sliders (basically mini burgers) and truffle fries. And we had their house brewed iced tea to wash it down. There were only a few customers when we ate there but eventually more came just as we checked out and decided to start walking back to the lobby for a ride to the hotel.

Sliders and truffle fries

The sliders were good and satisfying. The truffle fries were okay. We probably will eat there again but there's just many other restaurants to try out especially if we'll be back at Robinson's Manila. We'll see...
