Pepper Lunch Express in Trinoma

My Dad and I were walking around Trinoma one time and he spotted Pepper Lunch Express in the Food Choices area of the mall. We got very excited and immediately fell in line. I've been meaning to try Pepper Lunch for the longest time, and I'm very happy that they opened up a mini-branch in Trinoma (my neighbor mall). It was not even lunch time then; it was almost 4PM in the afternoon but we ordered Beef Pepper Rice (as snack?). See, I ought to gain some weight at this rate, but I don't.
Pepper Lunch Express never runs out of customers no matter what time it is. The prices of their dishes are significantly lower than that of their free standing stores, and the servings are a little less. I have no problems with the serving size though; it's just right.
My Dad and I ordered the same thing so I did not take a picture of his dish anymore. Upon ordering and paying at the counter, your dish will be handed to you in about 5 minutes. Express lunch at its best!
You could also see through their glass window how they prepare your dish while you wait.

And here's my favorite dish from Pepper Lunch Express: Beef Pepper Rice!


I had to hurry and mix things up (like the butter hidden under the layer of corn to the raw strips of beef). Make sure to mix them since you would not want to end up with overcooked beef. Since I don't like any form of sauce in general, I decided to not put any (like the garlic one), and just mix it as it is.
Beef Pepper Rice smelled good and tasted even better. I like the thin strips of beef and lots of corn to go with it. Seeing these pictures again makes me crave for another serving of Beef Pepper Rice!

What's your favorite dish from Pepper Lunch?

Love,
Helen

      Yup mas mura kasi hindi siya actual store, parang kiosk sa food court so less overhead expenses siguro. Pero same yung quality ng food. Sige, try ko yun, I like salmon too! :)

      But of course! Last Saturday and Sunday I had Beef Pepper Rice. :) Then almost every Sunday my Dad drives the entire family to Trinoma so we could eat Pepper Lunch for lunch or dinner. You could say we are addicted. :)
