Recently took a stroll in the Bonifacio High area and was glad of the numerous high end looking restaurants coming to life. But I guess on this particular day, given that I had a couple of nieces around, looking for more child-friendly restos is going to be the order of the day. Besides I love pizzas so I don't mind.
Yes you heard me right, NOLITA serves pizza ....... ordering here is pretty much like what you do in SBARRO. You line up, order your ready-baked pizza flavor from the person who looks like the pizza guy and he will re-heat the pizzas for you. Along the way you can also order for additional drinks, burgers and chili con carne (plus a whole lot of other stuff) from the friendly cashier.
I actually forgot what they call my pizza but its loaded with shrimps, oozing with mozarella cheese and it even has a sunny side up egg on top. (love the yolk, half runny-half cooked). Their crust is of the soft variety, there's a sign that actually encourages you to use your hands when eating the pizza (although there are utensils around) and that its best to fold the pizza (yes, its a big slice of pizza) lengthwise so it can fit into your mouth.
I have to say, this is one good pizza ...... the softness of the crust (I'm more partial to thin, slightly cripsy dough, but this one is fine with me), the gooiness of the cheese, the scrumptious shrimps and even the egg make for one tummy filling meal. But then again. if you're the kind that would opt for a little more variety, then paying more than 250 pesos for one slice of pizza may just seem a bit on the expensive side.

Yours truly still not having had his tummy filled (I forgot to eat breakfast that morning), I decided to try a burger...... Again I forgot the exact name of it so lets just call it ANGUS BURGER (who knows? thats what they might actually call it)
I'm usually not easily bothered with the price, but I guess there will always be exceptions ....... I mean 300++ for a burger (even of the angus variety) I would have expected something that would last for more than 2 bites. (ok I'm exaggerating a little..... 3 bites). Sure its got some tomatoes, lettuce and onions. But how about some french fries or wedges on the side ???? (I think Charlie's Grind and Grill has some fries)
Oh the burger patty (while looking all juicy and all that from the outside, is a bit dry on the inside ........ and bland too.

NOLITA is located at: 7th Ave. corner 29th St. South,
Bonifacio High Street Central, Bonifacio Global City, Taguig
You will have to pardon me if I cannot give out a more detailed direction ...... The Fort Area is one of the place that I'm not that familiar with (as far as the ins and outs are concerned). Anyway there is google map for the moment.
