CUBAO EXPO REVISITED: FRED'S REVOLUCION



Fred's quirky, relaxed, and unfinished interior just makes you want to linger all-day-long. A hodgepodge of interesting trinkets and novelty items dotted the walls and occupied open shelving in a randomly disorganized yet "cohesive" manner.  This restaurant certainly oozes out a different vibe that will trigger one's creativity mode on. It is definitely a haven for the hip, bohemian, artsy fartsy type urbanites.


Fred's keeps a limited selection of food on their menu.  I was lucky enough to have picked one of their bestsellers.  Most of their dishes are great for "pulutan" and for the more wholesome guys, an ideal pairing with steaming hot rice. 


Fred's also doubles as an art gallery.


Fred's for me is one of the most relaxing watering holes I have been to. Anyone can just come here in their unassuming selves wearing their unique brand of character. It is simply a great hangout for your drinking buddies and fellow foodies.


Always remember to drink in moderation... and don't drink and drive. Let's always be responsible my amigos!
