For 24 years it has stood the test of time, witnessed a lot of important events in our lives, and until now it is our reliable partner in relishing fun and entertainment with the people we love.

Cowboy Grill’s Ever-Changing Concept:

Cowboy Grill with its new and better concept on how to keep its customers happy, Cowboy Grill became a hit to those who enjoy music, dancing and of course great food. It grew steadily and became the benchmark of other companies that venture into this kind of business.

“Because of its large seating capacity, Cowboy Grill serves as a mini concert venue to many aspiring entertainment groups. As a matter of fact, a number of Pinoy bands started with us, and we are very proud about it because it’s with us where they have nurtured their talents,” added Mr.Pili Operation Manager.

The smallest branch of Cowboy Grill can accommodate at least 300 people and the biggest can seat at least 1000. Currently, it has 4 branches located in Mabini and Malate, Manila; Las Pinas City and Delta Quezon City.

“As long as they availed of our Cowboy cocktail (Tropang Tagayan) they can order as many as 24 meals, and each meal will only cost P24. We want our customers to try and experience the good food that we offer. And I think this is the best way for them to try our great dishes,” Caper added.

Cowboy Grill’s History:

Twenty four years ago, Cowboy Grill was established just to accommodate the customers of a sister company who were looking for live band shows and at the same time enjoy palatable dishes. Its first branch opened in the busy street of Mabini, Ermita, Manila, which easily gained a lot of following. With its spacious entertainment area, good sound system, reliable and good-looking crew and staff, and of course excellent show bands, Cowboy Grill became the leading entertainment spot in the Metro.

“As our name implies, “Cowboy,” our resto bar is the place of people who easily get along with others. In other words, madaling or magaling makisama, walang kiyeme,” said Mr. Caasi Chief Operating Officer of Cowboy Grill.

“Our Sisig might be one of the bests that you can find in Metro Manila, our fried chicken is also one of our best sellers, our pizza can compete with other brands. We believe that in our industry, among other things, the food is one of the main reasons why customers go back to our establishment. Taking that as our utmost concern, we are proud with the line of dishes that we have in our menu and we are glad to offer these to our customers,” said marketing manager Erickson Caper.

Cowboy Grill for 24 years has been a part of many people’s memories – be it failure, heartaches, joys and triumphs. But the most important fact is whenever you enter Cowboy Grill, you will begin to forget other things because in Cowboy Grill, it is all about fun and entertainment.

UrMajestySiresFoodExperiments: ‘Kinilaw na Dilis with Lato’ or ‘Anchovy Ceviche with Seaweed’

blog_april_kinilaw na dilis na may lato at labuyo_watermark

Sharing my ‘Bisaya’ side of the family’s simple version of ‘kinilaw’ or ‘kilawin’ which has many regional versions in Filipino cooking. Its basically composed of raw fish cleaned (innards removed) marinated in a mix of vinegar, ginger, salt, pepper and chili.

Now ‘ceviche’ is pretty much the same as kinilaw, which is Spanish or Latin American in origin. The differences are that the fish meat is cured using citrus juices and the addition of olive oil.

Farmed and now readily available  at supermarkets, ‘lato’ or ‘caulerpa lentillifera’ is a type of seaweed which resembles small grapes. It is also known as ‘arosep,’ ‘ar-arosep,’ or ‘lato bilog.’

Here’s a simple version, hope you like it and thanks for the click!

Kinilaw na Dilis with Lato
Ingredients:
anchovies or dilis, innards removed and washed clean
lato or
ginger, minced
tomato, sliced
vinegar

UrMajestySire’s Food Experiments: Galunggong dredged in herbs and spices

‘Galunggong’ (Round Scad or Shortfin Scad) | http://www.urmajestysire.wordpress.com | All rights reserved

Though ‘Bangus’ or ‘Milkfish’ is the national fish, ‘Galunggong’ or ‘GG’ is dubbed as the ‘Pambansang Isda’ because of its very affordable, readily available and easy to cook.

For a different take on GG, my sister and I tried to veer away from the usual frying or coating. Since there’s a recent wide awareness of the healthy benefits of herbs and spices, here’s what we came up with.

GALUNGGONG WITH SPICES AND HERBS

Ingredients:

1 kilo Galunggong, cleaned of innards and washed well

1 tbsp Turmeric

1/2 tbsp Paprika

1/2 tbsp Cayenne

Salt & Pepper

1 tbsp Cornstarch

1/2 cup flour, for dredging

Egg, beaten (optional)

Bird’s Eye Chili or ‘Siling Labuyo’ (optional)

Oil, for frying
