Pepper Lunch

My family love to eat Pepper Lunch to them it is already a complete meal. It can be eaten by itself having a choice of chicken, beef or salmon in your rice. You are not rice person they also have an option of Beef N Steak/ Chicken 'N Fish that comes in a plate combo or pasta and shake, shake salad. My favorite has always been Salmon Pepper Rice PHP 235.00 ($4.70) you can upgrade add additional for Double Salmon PHP 95.00 ($1.90) or Jumbo on the rice PHP 80.00 ($1.60). I always order my kani salad that comes in a plastic cup with soba noodles, lettuce, imitation crab meat, mayonnaise and Japanese Salad dressing. I always ask them not to add the mayonnaise on my salad for PHP 107.00 ($2.14). In case you want to add Beef with you Salmon there is a meal for you to order for PHP 235.00 ($4.70) of course you have an option to upgrade to the next size of Jumbo for additional of PHP 80.00 ($1.60). Every Pepper Rice has Honey Brown Sauce to add to your Pepper Rice I really don't like ha...
