Sinangag Republik: 24/7

I remember the sleepless nights, countless coffee cups and several midnight breaks during my college years where me and my classmates would spend the night at coffee shops trying to meet deadlines. It isn't the most affordable choice, but it was the most convenient place to meet, do group home works, presentations or even revise the different parts of our thesis.

Most coffee shops operate until the wee hours of the morning so there's no problem when it comes to where are we going to get coffee to wake up the sleepy person in us. However, when we are already bombarded and tired we tend to seek for food. Though we can afford to eat at coffee shops, it's really not practical to splurge that much. Besides, what we really come for is the wifi connection (sorry!) that leaves us to the need to find a place to eat without really hurting a student's budget. Thanks to Sinagag Republik! :)

Though it might be obvious that they're serving Pinoy inspired meals because of its name, what makes it more Pinoy-looking is its interiors most especially its facade. In front of the eatery, you can see a jeepney head connected with its body inside the eatery which serves as the counter where you get to place your order. It was really a cool idea.

To add up to the on-the-road-type theme brought by the jeepney, they accessorized their walls with different road signs, and plate numbers. Say hello to my dearest friends and thesis partners, Benj and Jam! :)

That's my troll face, or is it my hungry face? The place smells delicious because of all the meals we ordered. Feed us!!! I know you might have been expecting for a 'sinangag rice' (fried rice) but most of us chose to order plain rice instead because their 'sinangag' tastes like fried garlic with rice. Yung totoo, fried rice ba yun or fried bawang? *Peace SR* We still love our meal experiences at Sinangag Republik.

Tested&Tasted: Sinangag Republik

Sinangag Republik is a restaurant that opened last June 1, 2012 and it's located at Metrolifestyle Complex, E. Jacinto Extension, Davao City. For the people who has a normal body clock and eats at the right time perhaps at home would be a more preferable place to eat fried viands. I, for one, lives in Bajada and I would not bother visit E.Jacinto extension just to have my breakfast.

So, the reason why I bumped in to this establishment is because first, I don't have a normal body clock. I'm a nocturnal creature. Second, we finish our thesis in a coffee shop near the area.

AMBIANCE:

The concept of the place is well-thought of. The name and the decoration coheres with each other - - it's very Pinoy.  The name itself, as we all know, refers to Filipino fried rice. Another, Filipino pride is their interiors. The counter is designed as the jeepney's (a means of transportation in the Philippines) body while the head of the vehicle goes through the glass making it a pretty attraction at the restaurant's entrance.

The wall have been designed with different road signs and plate numbers. Isn't it cute? It's open 24 hours a day and I've always been there when the sun is sleeping. In those wee hours of the day I must say that the place is cozy and inviting.

FOOD:

It's affordable (less than a hundred) and it's delicious too. Don't worry because they have value meals and I think you should give it a try. They have a wide spectrum of served viands that'll surely satisfy your appetite any time you want, literally. So, if you're fond of eating Sinangag visit them and give it a try :)
