I was planning to visit JD to include it in my search for the best pancit Molo in the city but as expected, this turned out to be another "raid" with my regular JD partner in crime showing unexpectedly. Though wasn't really hungry that time, I couldn’t say no since for I have a quest there.
As usual, it was the Roadhouse branch where we had our late dinner and around 9pm, the place was full packed inside out. Aside from pancit Molo, I had chicken macaroni salad, a blueberry cheesecake and iced tea. ( Hmmm, I did say I wasn't hungry, right? Well....)
Their pancit Molo was perfect. The soup tasted great, there were plenty of chicken strips, a very generous number of pancit Molo balls ( around seven I think ) and no traces pancit lang lang. But the best part is, it's only 21 pesos! Yup one of the more affordable items in the menu.
But when I tasted the Molo balls, now I know why it’s very cheap. The filling was a total letdown. No, it wasn't the size of the Molo balls but it’s what was inside. I think it had more extenders in the form of vegetables and barely had meat at all. I was really dismayed but not totally since it’s only the filling that made it "bad" otherwise it would have been perfect. I think it's worth another taste test soon.
Their chicken macaroni salad and blueberry cheesecake were just okay, nothing spectacular. Their salad with thousand island dressing and Concorde cake was just the same, nothing to rave about. 
We all have different tastes and don't let my opinions hinder you. Besides JD is one of the more affordable cafe and bakery in town though I still have doubts in the quality of some of their products, except their club sandwich of course. Even with all the "setbacks" I still would say it's worth going (back) there especially with an empty stomach (and pockets. )
