Chilli-Cheese Nachos!

Did you know we make authentic style Chili-Cheese Nachos at SmallFry’s? We start with crispy Tostito corn chips then add a layer of real cheddar cheese and put it in the oven to melt. The melted cheese protects the corn chips from getting soggy when the wet ingredients are put on top. Next we add the chili, chopped onions and tomatoes, another layer of cheddar cheese and finally the pickled jalapeno peppers. Back in the oven under the broiler until the cheese is bubbling and the edges of the corn chips are lightly toasted. We serve it directly from the oven while it is still very hot. Served with a couple ice cold beers and your cravings are sure to be satisfied.

It’s worth the drive to San Isidro, Calatrava. 🙂

“Amazing Chicken Wings”

Have you tried our authentic buffalo style chicken wings yet?
Are you addicted to chicken wings? Besides our popular Buffalo style wings, we just added extra crispy Cajun Wings to our menu. We don’t just fry our Chicken Wings. We experimented for months until we got it right. We start with big plump meaty wings and drumettes that go through a secret five stage process that ensures the wings are golden brown, dry and crispy not fatty or greasy while the meat is still tender and juicy on the inside. We had one self appointed wing expert tell us he knows when the wings are cooked right because you can eat everything on the bone including the crispy tip at the end of the wing. Whether you like them mild, medium, hot, or totally insane Carolina Grim Reaper we believe our wings will be the best you’ve ever had. Served with fries, or carrot sticks and ranch. It’s worth the drive to San Isidro.

Our guests say:
“Amazing Chicken Wings! Taste like the wings you get at a pub in the U.S.A”
– Canadian living in San Carlos
“The food was absolutely delicious especially the back ribs, burger and chicken wings. The crispiest I’ve ever tasted”
– Filipino living in Bacolod
“Great wings. Super flavor, not too much heat”
– American living in San Carlos

SmallFry’s Has Gone Italian?

We just got our first shipment of Italian wine. Now you can included Italian wine with you seaside candle light dinner. For burgers, steak, barbecued ribs include a bold red wine like Cabernet Sauvignon, or a dry Montepulciano D’Abruzzo with soft tannins. For chicken, fish, or pasta try a Chardonay, or the house favorite LeValentina Trebiano from the Abruzzo region of Italy. PapaDoug’s, Come Hungry!! 🙂

I WANT MY BABY BACK RIBS!!!

Have you tried PapaDoug’s BBQed Baby Back Ribs yet? Meal includes tender juicy fall off the bone Baby Back Ribs with your choice of mashed potatoes or fries, salad, mixed veggies, or baked beans. Choose regular or spicy chipotle. 1/2 rack meal is good for the average eater, and the full rack is for the big eater or enough to be shared with a friend. For the light eater, or as an appetizer we now offer a 4 fried rib meal with 1/2 fries and baked beans. PapaDoug’s, Come Hungry! 🙂

Sampat

Sampat on Dalhia Street in San Carlos City is back from the main road and until recently we did not even know it was there. We enjoyed it so much the first time, we have been back four more times already.

At home we primarily eat Filipino so when we are out I usually order Western food if they have it. I’ll start by saying the Filipino food is excellent. I tried everything that my wife ordered and the last time we were there I order Filipino too. This was primarily because on the Western sandwiches side of the menu I never found anything I would order again. The tuna melt was the best of the worst but the mayonnaise was very sweet and overpowering. The crispy chicken sandwich wasn’t, the club sandwich was OK but too gooey and too much sweet mayonnaise again. But the worst of all was the bacon grilled cheese. It’s not real cheddar. They use the local Eden cheese which is dry, tasteless and just horrible in a sandwich. A bit disappointing. If you like good Western style food I’d recommend Mr. C’s, Mike’s Burgers and of course Smallfry’s Beach Resort. But if you like Filipino, Sampat has some of the best we’ve tried at a very reasonable price. The staff is great, the place has a nice ambience, and the beer is cold. We will be back again.

Meg

One of the nice things about living in or visiting the San Carlos City and Calatrava area is exploring the mountains and local attractions. Whether you like to trek, enjoy the views, or just have a nice place to have a morning coffee, there are dozens of places to choose from if you can find them. 

This was our third visit to Meg formally known as La Riqah Resort and Family Park. The place keeps on getting bigger and better. They are building a family park and resort area below the restaurant. I don’t know when it will be open, but they are building a pool and grass huts that should be nice for a family outing. There is lots of level parking for a change, beautiful plants, and plenty of things to see including a fish pond for the kids. The washrooms were modern, and very clean.

We all ordered the bacon and egg breakfast, which was very good,at a reasonable price, but you can see from the menu there are plenty of other items to order. The coffee tasted like the local coffee beans and was good. They served creamer without having to ask which was nice for a change. The owner came out to greet us, which was appreciated. The only recommendation we made to him was to offer an American style breakfast with two eggs instead of one egg with rice. We had a very pleasant visit, and will be back again for sure

“Best Burgers In Town”

PAPADOUGS HOME MADE FLAME BARBECUED DOUBLE CHEESE BURGER

Two years ago when we first opened we did a post about our hamburgers because a few guests had told us how much they enjoyed them. Today it is still the most popular thing on the BBQ menu. What’s our secret? No secret really, just 1/4 lb (or 1/2 lb if you’re really hungry) of pure ground beef, egg, spices, and lots of fresh garlic flame grilled on the BBQ. Well maybe the spices are secret, but since the chef is Canadian you might be able to guess. 🙂

And of course made the way you like it with fresh lettuce, cheese, onions, tomato, mustard, and pickles. Ok fine, that’s the way I like it. But you can also have mayonnaise and/or ketchup if you must. 🙂

We’re only 15 minutes from Calatrava, and 20 minutes from San Carlos. Why not come out to the beach in San Isidro on your lunch break. You can have lunch in town, or you can sit on the beach and enjoy one of the best burgers around.

This is what some of our guests have said:
