Car Wash and N'Joy Bar-BQ at Davao City

If you are having your car washed, and having to wait on a chair can bore you or even yet you suddenly feel hungry from waiting. Visit N'Joy Bar-BQ at Lanang just beside Insular Village 2. At N'Joy Bar-BQ there is a car wash station just beside it. So you can wait there and eat and watch TV while your car gets washed and cleaned.

Me and my wife ate their about two months ago, and the food and the service was great. Since the place is far from the downtown area, the place is not much crowded by people.

I ordered a value meal that consists of 1 Chicken Pecho, Rice and Atsara for 79 pesos while wifey also had a value meal that consist of 2 Pork Barbecue, Rice and Atsara for 65 pesos. I had a coke in glass for 15 pesos and my wife had calamansi juice for 25 pesos.We had a total bill of 184 pesos, not bad huh?

With regards to the place, the place is spacious, its quite windy when we visited the place since its open and no windows, the place main cooling equipment if that is the right term is a ceiling fan. I also like the color of the place which is yellow, it does help brighten up the place.There is also a huge mounted TV at the top wall of the counter.

So in case you are near lanang area visit N'Joy Bar-BQ.

Here are some photos of N'Joy Bar-BQ:

Delicious and Tasty Chicken at Goldie Chicken House - Davao City

If you like chicken, well fried chicken to be exact. Better check out Goldie Chicken House at Ilustre Street. 

When it comes to chicken, for me they have the tastiest and juiciest chicken, that can rival that of Jollibee and Mcdonalds. Me and my wife love to eat there because also of their affordable price. I'm not sure of the correct prices of Jollibee and Mcdonalds when it comes to chicken, as far as I can remember, a 1 piece chicken meal in Jollibee or Mcdonalds can cost you almost 80 pesos (a one piece chicken part, one soft drinks and a rice) and that is good for only a single person. At Goldie, me and my wife usually order a Thrift Treat (Large) which can cost us 142 pesos, Expensive? well lets look at the content. A Thrift Treat (Large) has 6 slices of chicken part (YES 6 chicken parts compare to a single part on your favorite food chain), a rice and a macaroni or potato salad. Since there is only 1 rice we would order an extra rice, and an ice tea which cost 18 pesos. Usually our bill would range at about 180 pesos, is it worth it? of course. 

The only downside of the place well, its not air conditioned, only ceiling fans are in used, so come lunch time it could get a little hot, and the place also is not that big, it could accommodate maybe 20 to 30 person the most. But only few people dine in at the place, most of their clients would order in advance through phone call, and mostly are take out orders.

So if you crave for some tasty and yet affordable chicken. Don't hesitate to visit Goldie Chicken House. 

Goldie Chicken House is located at Amgar Plaza, Ilustre St, Davao City. Tel No.: 226-3846

Below are some photos of the place and our order.
