I did go to Gerrys Grill last night though and it was very good.
Better than their website then! I had a look at it and it is one of those 'so fancy, you can hardly get it to work at all' lay-outs.

[At least that was my experience using Opera as my browser].
should check out their pork sisig. :)
Funnily enough we did have the Pork Sisig :)

We were with a couple of Filipino's so they did the ordering :D

For people who really want to know without googling, you may PM me.

I won't post it here so as not to spoil to surprise. :cool:

I was disappointed and underwhelmed when I looked to see what it actually was.

A bit underwhelming compared to the dish of goat testicles I once had in VN.

I have had Bun Bo Hue (spicy Vietnamese 'soup') with Ox Penis in it. This was actually in San Jose California too. The place only served two items: Bun Bo Hue with or without the ox penis. We of course ordered without, but were served the wrong items. Or, our suspicion is someone in back just picks it out if you don't want it. It looked like big chunks of cartilage in suspicious shapes. It probably tasted just like half of the other random 'meat' items already in the soup. I still passed.
