My husband and I love to go on a food trip. You guessed it right, our favorite past time is eating. The other day, we were at Festival Supermall to try out Jack’s Loft. We were surprised to note that Jack’s Loft, My Thai and Phoa shared a common dining area. We opted to be seated at the My Thai/Phoa area since it has a more vibrant feel than the Jack’s Loft corner. I was immediately attracted to the pink and green chairs.
pink and green chairs
I just love how pretty the place looks like. One side of the wall is decorated with drawers and there are two fab white couches against it.
Since we were not up for some Thai and Chinese food, we ordered two main dishes from Jack’s Loft as originally planned. My husband had the Beef Tenderloin Stroganoff. This is beef tenderloin sauteed in mushrooms and red pepper, and topped with stroganoff sauce. The beef is chewy and tasty. I love the stroganoff sauce, it taste heavenly. I am a sucker for creamy sauces on top so this dish definitely goes well with my palate. They had medium size serving for this one though so it is good for one person only, if you opt to share with someone, it will be bitin.

I had the HK Style Baked Pork Chops. This is fried rice topped with baked breaded pork chop, cheese and tomato sauce. The porkchop was crunchy and fried to perfection. I loved the tomato sauce and cheese combination. This can be shared by two persons as they have generous serving of this.

In the end, we were too full to order dessert but of course, dining here wouldn’t be complete without paying the dessert window a visit.
tempting dessert
We will definitely be back for a slice or two of these sinful desserts. Jack’s Loft/My Thai/Phoa’ is at the 3rd level of Filinvest Festival Mall, near the Madrigal entrance. Do check out their food offerings, they sure taste good.:)

Hi. Ms. Blanca! My fave is MyThai among the three restos. I love its interiors as it is so lively as the tastes of their food items. More food trips to come with your hubby!

I suggest you try the decadent chocolate cake at Jacksloft if you’re into chocolate
Jacksoft, Phoa, and My Thai kitchen here in San Juan also share the same location, I guess they have the same owner(s), but i’m not sure. Thanks for sharing this post

Some of my friends love Jack’s Loft. I’ve eaten at Jack’s Loft only once, years ago, somewhere in QC, but I didn’t like it much.

I think there’s also Jack’s Loft in Gateway Cubao. when I first saw it, I thought it’s really unique and cool. It’s just that the color is too feminine for guys to actually choose that among others? Just a thought.
anyway, I made a list of Comfort Foods you may want to try as well.

This Jack’s Loft has a different feel than the one I tried in Eastwood City. It’s more homey because the one in Eastwood is more like a party place. I am just not sure if they are related. Love their cakes..

Hi Blanca! I’ve been meaning to try Jack’s Loft but failed again (they were still closed on a Black Saturday). The last time I was at JL’s was when I dropped in for some Strawberry Margarita’s.. Would love to sample the ones that you’ve tried talaga! =)

The last time I was at Jack’s Loft was when I had Strawberry Margarita’s with friends. And all along I thought it was just a bar of some sort. Also, my s.o. and I recently saw another Jack’s Loft in ETON Centris Walk. If only I paid them a visit, we would have eaten there instead of this pizza place right beside it.
