Enjoying Thai Dinner at Cisan's, Angeles City

I love Thai cuisine because of the blend of different flavors and textures. If I were to likened it to a person, it is like a person who is kind with that little naughtiness, sense of adventure, and a hint of mystery--it has little bit of everything. Thai dishes has many things going on every plate yet there is harmony to its flavor.

My all time favorite is pad thai. I love the saltiness, the crunchy texture of the bean sprouts and the beans, and the mixture of flavors.

Last night, we had the chance to try a new restaurant in Nepo Quadrangle. I am still amazed on how the Quadrangle has become. Certainly, Angeles has changed so fast in the past 5 years. And the place where this exciting Quadrangle now stands was just a huge space of lot where lovers used to meet at night.

Cisan's was a perfect choice to have  our dinner that evening. Cisan's is a Thai restaurant located near the Angeles Electric building.

FOOD/PRICE

We ordered grilled pork with bagoong rice, pad thai and milk tea. The meal was a WINNER! I simply love it.

The grilled pork with bagoong rice is a rice dish with green mangoes, shallots, long beans, and scrambled egg, topped with grilled pork. It cost P275. With its hefty serving, it is already enough for 2-3 persons. The pork was tender and perfect in every bite and with a little sweet flavor, which makes a contrasting taste to the rice. The bagoong rice was just awesome. I muttered: "kanin pa lang ulam na." I like the saltiness of the bagoong (shrimp paste) and how the mangoes creates a little excitement to the dish. The ingredients is well incorporated and the bagoong nor the mangoes is overwhelming.

The pad thai is nicely presented with two huge deveined shrimp. Pad thai is a rice noodles dish with eggs, bean sprouts, tofu, shrimp, and pad thai sauce. Unlike other restaurants that serve pad thai with the peanuts, Cisan's gives their customers the liberty to add peanuts and how much they would put into their dish. Chopped peanuts are served on every table. Because I'm a nut-lover, I drown mine with lots of peanuts.

Pad thai costs P275. It is a reasonable price for the winning taste, presentation, and ingredients.  

The thai milk team was great too. And to cut the story short, the entire meal was just awesome.

PLACE

What entices me to enter the establishment aside from the little spunk to try something new is the place, which was nicely designed. It is well-lighted too, which is one important factor for me because I am not fond of a resto with a very bright lighting system that hurts the eye.

ABOUT CISAN'S

Cisan's is a new Thai restaurant in Angeles City. Little information is known about this place but I see positive feedback from customers. The restaurant owner was hand-on with the operation. In fact, she personally cooked the dishes himself.

My friend, a partner in crime, has one thing to suggest, he suggested that the restaurant be well-advertised. The place and food is great, people just need to know about it.
