The BF Homes Guide: Restaurants That Deliver During the Quarantine

Let's face it: the enhanced community quarantine has been hard on everyone. And while we are already aware that some people have it much harder than others, that doesn't mean that we shouldn't speak up about our own problems, no matter how shallow they may be compared to others.

One of the biggest hurdles that people in my village - BF Homes in Paranaque - has been facing during the ECQ is where to get food. If you live here, you'll know how accustomed people are to eating out since there are so many restaurants in the area. Truth is: work gets in the way and people are so busy that it has become the norm to order out to lessen the load at home.

What I've come to notice is that every time I post what I've ordered for the day on my social media accounts, people always ask where I got it from. So if you are in need of a list of restaurants that are delivering food in BF Homes, I've made a list. (I didn't include big places like McDonald's, KFC, Baliwag, Angel's Pizza, or Andok's - but they're open, too!)

My favorite pares place in BF delivers! This is actually the first restaurant I ordered food from when I got random cravings during the ECQ. Pares aside, they also have tapa, sisig, bagnet, and crispy bacon, to name a few. Their food here is sooooo good. Promise.

Azon's

Craving for lumpiang ubod or puto? Azon's has both and they're ALL delicious. I ordered these the other day and they didn't last very long. Lol. The Lumpiang Ubod (Php65) is super fresh and the Puto Pao with Salted Egg (Php150 for 8 pieces) tastes like siopao... but on puto. Basta. Sarap! Solid.

Bamba Bistro has been around for the longest time and their longevity speaks volumes about their food. Order some Lechon Sliders during the quarantine. You deserve it.

Bicol's Best Toasted Siopao

Message Bemboi on Facebook for orders.

If you're craving for toasted siopao (Box of 12: Php135, Box of 21: Php225, Box of 32: Php337), you can still get it delivered during the quarantine. Bicol's Best has even upped their game by adding other products to the delivery mix, including cheese donuts, pan de coco, monay (Php7 each), and pork siomai (3 for Php20).

Brunch is my go-to restaurant in BF for comfort food and if you haven't tried their food yet, now is the best time to fall in love with them. Believe me when I say that EVERYTHING on their menu is good. You won't go wrong with anything that you order. Tried and tested.

Dusadee Thai

Although the taste of the food here is catered more to the Filipino palate, Dusadee Thai has good food made of authentic Thai ingredients. Their Bagoong Rice meals with pork, chicken, or fish (Php120) will fill you up nicely. Their Tomyum with noodles (Php150) isn't too spicy in case you don't like spiciness. They've got Thai Iced Tea (Php60) and Mango Sticky Rice (Php110), too.

Ianne's Kitchen

Message Ianne on Facebook for orders.

I haven't tried their food yet and from what I've understood, they just opened recently? But they've got Korean fried chicken, tteokpokkji, and japchae, and that's good enough for me!

Mandarin Palace

Our go-to family get-together restaurant delivers now, too - perfect for my upcoming birthday celebration, if you ask me. :p I almost fainted when I heard the news. And my dad got so excited, we're ordering for lunch tomorrow. If you love Chinese food, this is the place to get it from. The entire family will love it - guaranteed!

If you're craving for Spanish food, their food is reeeeeally good. I highly recommend their Gambas (Php332), Salpicao (Php352), Patatas Bravas (Php252), and Paella. If you have wine at home despite the current liquor ban, their food will go perfectly well with it.

Ritchie's Diner

Craving for diner style fare? Ritchie's has also been around for a while and although I love their ambiance, we'll have to do with eating their delicious food at home for now. My personal favorite is their Steak and Eggs, but they've also got a bunch of other comfort food like mac 'n' cheese and milkshakes.

Rock's Deli

Message Juan on Facebook for orders.

If you're craving for Japanese food, one of my favorite Japanese restaurants in the area delivers! Again: can't go wrong with anything on their menu. And if you're already a Japanese food lover, then I really don't need to make any recommendations. You probably already know what you want.

A new Korean discovery for me near our place, Won Chicken is located next to Baliwag in the street in front of Pitong Daan. It may be hard to find, but you can get their food delivered to you now for the utmost convenience. Their chicken aside, they also have ssamgyeop (Php400), Korean ramen (Php250), and kimchi pancakes (Php350). Their mandu is good, too.

Stay safe and stay at home, guys. Get your food delivered instead if you need to. Let me know if I missed any, so I can add them to the list! :)
