I'm a sucker for Japanese food, so when I saw this stall selling maki, I bought one right away! I bought this 150-peso tray that has 3 kinds of maki. One was maki that had half a crabstick, a bit of rice at the bottom, then the rice and crabstick was tied together using nori. The other maki is your typical california maki, the last one was like california maki, but instead of having the orange caviar outside, the caviar was inside the maki roll, together with mango, cucumber and crabstick, rolled in nori.

The maki tasted like regular maki. It was a little expensive for my taste though.

They also don't provide this small cup for the soy-sauce. Which is weird, considering that they should have provided it, instead of just soy-sauce in a small platic tube (for ice candy). Also, the maki wasn't cold, which is really really bad. Though there isn't any fresh food in the maki, It should have been at least a little cool, right?

Stall 43 was this sad stall. Not much people because the stall looked empty. They have lined up various plastic boxes of fresh garden salad. Being the garden salad lover that I am, I went to the stall and bought a salad for 50 pesos.

For 50 pesos, there sure was a lot of vegetation. Though I'm comparing it to Wendy's and KFC's salad, which are a tad expensive.

The veggies on my salad are plain green lettice, tomatoes, carrot sticks and onions. The dressing was pureed yellow mangoes.

The veggie selection is okay. A perfect blend of tangy veggies. The vegetables doesn't look that fresh, like the salad was already made for about 2 hours but it's okay. I would have wanted my salad cold, but I don't mind it in room temp either. What really bugs me is the dressing.

At first I was like, "What, mango dressing?" but then, I thought it was worth a try. A taste of summer, right? There wasn't anything special to the mango dressing. It's just pureed mango. Fine. One more problem, there wasn't enough dressing for all the vegetables. BUMMER! I love my salad to have just the right amount of dressing, maybe a lot of dressing. What's irking me is that the dressing barely covered half of the salad (not really cover as "cover", but enough for you to taste the dressing and the salad). It was a disaster. Good thing I was hungry, so I was able to finish the salad, even if it's like I'm just eating plain, raw vegetables.

I wouldn't recommend it at all. All the contents of that salad, I could have made at home. It would have been fresher and had more dressing.

Stall 27 was the first food stall I bought food from when Rastrillo opened.

It's mongolian-style. There are bowls of what you can put on your bowl, then have them fried by the cook.

There are a lot of toppings that you can add, it's like your typical mongolian restos. The best part is that it's only 100 Pesos!

Mongolian Base food
For your base, you can choose from rice 3 kinds of noodles. I forgot which kinds of noodles cause I'm a rice fan. Anyway. You have a nice variety of base. which you can also mix together if you want

Meat
Meat choices are the usual meat choices. Beef, pork, chicken and squid and tofu

Spices
There are a lot spices and other toppings available. You have the typical diced chillis, peanuts, onion, garlic, sesame seeds, tomatos and other greens.

Sauces
You have the typical sauces, you have to tell the cook which sauce you like. The list of the sauces is not available, which is one of the downsides. I chose terriyaki sauce.

All in all, I must say I had a great experience with my mongolian bow. It was yummy! Though I over did the chillis so my bowl was flaming hot!

For a hundred bucks, I sure did get more than my money's worth! YUM!
