Due to the COVID-19 lockdown nationwide, many establishments including well-loved restaurants have temporarily halted their operations. This might have led to most of us missing their signature dishes and all-time favorite meals these past few days. Fret not though, because some restaurants have offered ready-to-cook items from their menu to help you satisfy your cravings.
