Rub Ribs and Bbq

My son, the carnivore, is always on a lookout for good and hearty meat dishes. My sister-in-law told us about the rib place near Charlie's grill that served good ribs at an affordable price and so we decided to give it a try. Thank God that my husband was in a pretty good mood that day because Rub restaurant is so difficult to find. The sign is so small that one wonders how people can even find it. We were told that it was located about 200-300 meters from Charlie's grill so we went up and down looking for it. We saw the Runner's Burger joint and thought that Rub was the shorter name for it. But there were no ribs on their menu. After a couple of calls to my sister-in-law, we were told that Rub was located in a corner white building. Bingo, we finally found it and at 3 pm, the place was still filling up.
Chicken Cajun Pasta at Php 200. My son is still dreaming of everything Cajun from Popeye's and so we had to order this dish. This was not bad. The pasta was served al dente and the cream sauce did not overpower but blended well with the cajun chicken.
Super Duo at Php 370. This was described to us as a whole slab of  baby backed ribs good for 2 persons. We chose the garlic mashed potatoes and coleslaw as our sidings. Yup, we are very traditional with our food choices. We almost always pick mashed potatoes, coleslaw and corn with ribs and chicken because that is the way it has always been served in the U.S. restos. Everything in this plate was excellent. It was not doused with sauce but we were also given some sauce on the side in case we wanted it dripping with sauce. The whole slab looked like half a slab though or maybe it was a preemie instead of a baby pig.
Sprice at Php65. This is the killer rice. We would come back to this resto again and again just for this rice. The cajun seasoning is blended so well that you just have to roll your eyes when you put this rice in your mouth. What I would also love to do is get a take-out order of this and pair it with the Baked Fried Chicken at Stackers. Why not?
