Mexican Fare Platters starting at P250 at TJ's Mexican Grill (Up to 55% off)

The tortilla's thinness makes it ideal for folding, sliding under closed doors, and illustrating theories that the Earth is flat and made of corn. Voyage to the edge of deliciousness with today's Groupon to TJ's Mexican Grill. Choose between two options:

• P250 (P500 value) for a platter of your choice
• P420 (P940 value) for a platter of your choice + a pitcher of your choice

TJ's/Tijuana's Mexican Grill, better known as TJ's, is a fusion of Mexican, Middle Eastern and Asian Cuisines right in the heart of Ortigas and Alabang. Their team of culinary mix-masters blends vegetables and dairies into classic Mexican fusion dishes. For today’s deal, Groupon holders get to choose between three face-meltingly delightful platters to be shared by up to four people, or selfishly hoarded by one.

I’ve been talking about Baja and TJ’s in this post – comparing, contrasting, eating at both. They’re sisters yes, and I’m told that it’s relatively the same food, just different interiors. Whatever it is, I prefer TJ’s for its more welcoming, creative ambience – it’s just got that feel-good vibe – and the food appears to be prepared with more thought and care. Naturally, all that makes for better tasting food too which is what matters most.
