FOODTRIP(42): Fat Daddy's Smokehouse

Located hidden in Marikina, we’ve come to this place, Fat Daddy’s Smokehouse, near/back of St. Scho Marikina so I was kind of familiar with the place already. Going to the place is a bit tricky so for those who’s not familiar with the location here’s a guide.

Ride a jeepney/fx with SSS Village sign and ask to be dropped at Meralco. Look for the tricycle terminal (yellow tricycle) as ask to be dropped off at Dao St or at Fat Daddy’s. The one I rode with knew the location Fat Daddy’s so we didn’t encountered any problems.

Place is located in a residential area maybe that’s why I noticed that they have a security in the place. Ambiance is nice even though the place is not air-condition. We came during night time and on a weekday and there weren’t much people around. Menu is seen from the counter and you have to pay first for your orders. There were a lot of yummy foods on the menu to choose from so we had a hard time deciding on which to order.

Here’s the menu: (grabbed from: https://www.zomato.com/manila/fat-daddys-smokehouse-marikina-heights-marikina-city/menu#tabtop)

But here’s what we ordered:

Smoked Grilled Pork Chops (Php 250)

Smoked Grilled Chicken BBQ (Php 200)

- Both foods have a BIG servings and they’ve really given us quality food that is reasonable for the price. Also both Pork Chops and Chicken BBQ has that yummy distinct flavorful taste. You’ll really know that they really have an original menu for this :)

Extra Mashed Potato

- I think their mashed potato needs more flavor or salt because it’s taste too bland for me

Bacon and Smores Dip (Php200)

- The best smores I’ve ever tasted!!! Might be a bit pricey but definitely worth the money. The graham cracker dipped with the melting marshmallow and melted chocolate at the bottom part was really yummy! Might look big in photos but actually serving is smaller than what you think. But worth the price :) Really must try! :)

Overall, I think I still want to try more from their menu but I’m still in between since foods are a bit pricey for me. Yes, foods are definitely worth it since servings are really big and foods are very distinct and yummy but I’m on the cheaper-price-of-foodies-side. But this is something worth to try for :) Might come back for more :)
