Dong Juan has three major branches in Cebu and the one in Persimmon [Mabolo] was closest to where I live. The ambiance was warm and I’m sure many people would like it. Dong Juan is best known for their extra juicy burgers but they also serve a variety of pasta; one of which is their Gambas Al Ajillo [Garlic Shrimp] Pasta.

Gambas Al Ajillo Pasta
When told the waiter my order, she relayed it to the chef and I can hear the kitchen cooking up the meal which made one’s mouth water. It took about 15mins for my order to arrive and believe me, it was worth it. It was served on a simple tray together with iced tea.
The first bite will surely make your eyebrows arch high because the way they cooked their pasta is perfect- not to dry and not to oily- it makes you want to take another one. The shrimp was juicy and tender which will not disappoint you.
On a side note: other than the Garlic Shrimp Pasta, part of their pasta menu is Linguini Meatballs, Salami Ham Pasta, Chorizo Pasta and Pacific Pasta.
When the dish was finished, it only made me think of one thing: I need to come back here. And I’m sure, you’ll do it too.
