New Bombay in Makati





New Bombay in Makati

New Bombay Sheep Meat
New Bombay Soup
New Bombay Sauce

After work, me and two friends were looking for a place to eat. Roaming near our office, we found New Bombay. We ordered several foods that we don't have any idea what to expect. We tried the sheep meat, soup and partnered it with rice.

We expected spicy foods but I guess I can't handle super spicy and ordered more rice. Most are new to my tastebud and same with my friend. While our guy friend liked it all.

Overall, must try for people who like spicy food or looking for new food for your tastebud and we didn't had to pay a lot.
