#Foodiethon: The Racks Restaurant SM Megamall

The Racks was our first and only choice when we celebrated Kevin's and his Father's birthday.When we got there (The Racks SM Megamall), the store was almost full. We even waited and stood by for few minutes before we finally took our place. Of course, we initially took pictures of the place, the store and.. (oh wait, can I include ourselves?) Yep, we took our "selfies".

After we comfortably dominated the couch, Menu were handed to us.
What made me more excited (aside from the fact that it was already 10PM and we were so hungry) was their Baby Back Ribs which was quoted by Kuya Kenneth as "The Best Baby Back Ribs in Town!". 

Okay, let me share to you my The Racks experience and #Foodiethon with my Boyfriend's family as a celebration for Kevin's 22nd birthday and Tito Lowie's 47th birthday.

Here we go!

Racks Baby Ribs -Php460.00, Rating: 10/10

Lip smackin' good select lean, juicy baby ribs that's impossible to resist.Naturally falls off the bone! Served with mac and cheese, baked beans, and vegetables.

Whoa! I'm begging you to please try their Baby Back Ribs. Honestly, as they say, you will miss half of your life if you won't have that chance of tasting this dish. This was really grilled by their awesome chef to perfection! I can't say that I am biased but this was actually my initial reaction when I tasted this dish. I will undoubtedly give this dish a 10. This will be more delightful if you will have this accompanied by The Racks Original Barbecue Sauce. 

Racks Classic Pork Ribs - Php345.00 - Rating: 8/10

Classic Pork Ribs served with coleslaw, broccoli and cheese, and lettuce.

I got so excited to eat the Baby Back Ribs to the point that I almost forgot the rest of the dishes on our table. Next in line was Racks Classic Pork Ribs. It was also delicious and appealing because of its presentation. Well, this one captured the heart of Tito Lowie. A bit hard to chew though. It has its distinct taste that stood out among others. It was also served with fresh lettuce and broccoli. Yum yum!

Southern Fried Chicken - Php360.00, Rating: 8/10

Southern fried chicken crisp and juicy served with gravy, buttermilk biscuits, and honey. It is crispy in the outside and juicy in the inside. 
(These are the words used by The Racks to describe this dish)



At first, I was thinking that their chicken might be a bit similar to others. I was surprised that they have this unique preparation and presentation of the dish. You can dip the chicken to the honey or their original gravy. Eitherway, they're both exemplary and perfect dip for Southern Fried Chicken.

Creamy Carbonara, Php240.00, Rating: 8/10 
Garlic Scampa Spaghetti, Php295.00, Rating: 7/10

In-house prepared creamy carbonara sauce tossed in al dente spaghetti noodles sprinkled with parsley and parmesan cheese. 

Garlic Scampa Spaghetti is served with juicy shrimp and broccoli florets sauteed in a chili infused garlic olive oil mixture.

Loved their Carbonara! Its creamy goodness made me want more. Know that feeling of wanting more when your stomach is already full? Garlic bread were also baked meticulously, perfect match for these pasta. Didn't like the Garlic Scampa Spaghetti that much. Maybe, I was not just a fan of that kind of spaghetti.


We had a very good experience and will definitely go back to this place. We didn't order much of the dessert since all of us were fully-loaded. Given the chance to order and eat a dessert with a half-empty, half-full belly, we might try Memphis Pound Cake and Mud Pie.
So happy to be with this generous and loving family. 

P.S. - Their Baby Back Ribs are sooooo good. A must-try!
