Although Paella Valenciana is Spanish in origin, there’s no denying that Filipinos also loved this dish. That’s why I’ve decided to try it although I don’t know what to expect. What I know is that Galli Village Café offers the best Paella Valenciana in town
Paella Valenciana—A House Specialty
One of Galli Village Café’s house specialties—and a must-try—is the Paella Valenciana. What would whet your appetite are the color and the scent of the saffron. To be honest, this is my first time to try Paella so I really don’t know what to expect. But what I love about this dish is that it’s very generous with the ingredients.
Served hot in a paellera, the Paella Valenciana is topped with pork chunks, chorizo, bell pepper, string beans, shrimp, egg and slices of lemon. It is very zesty because of the lemon; and its look and taste reminds me of Mechado. Another awesome thing about this meal is that you can get to share it with a friend or two for only PHP 295.00.

At first look, you’ll have the impression that the whole place is like a house turned in to a small restaurant that could seat about 10 customers. Its colorful walls and paintings also gives you that “little Spanish village” vibe.

Another quaint thing about this place is that there are mugs hanging on the wall, and the window sills were turned into bookshelves. You can also enjoy outdoor dining at Galli Village Café since there are tables and chairs available outside.

However, this complete meal is not advisable for those who are in a hurry since it takes over 40 minutes to be cooked. My advice is that you order a soup so you won’t get hungry while waiting. But I swear, Galli Village Café’s Paella Valenciana is really worth the long wait.
Another tip: All of their best sellers are marked with a star. So if you'd like to try their specialties other than Paella Valenciana, you'll know what to pick.
