What can ₱4,000 get the family? Here’s what we enjoyed at Nono’s

What can ₱4,000 get the family at Nono’s?

I decided to put that question to the test when I treated the TatakMNL.com team to a meal at Nono’s on September 12.

With a ₱4,000 budget, we wanted to see how much food and variety we could enjoy as a group. The answer? We were able to put together a complete spread—from a family-sized meal and drinks to pastries and coffee—and, interestingly enough, our total came to exactly ₱4,000.

Starting with Nono’s Family Feast

The biggest part of our order was Nono’s Family Feast, priced at ₱2,995 and good for five to six people.

The Family Feast gave us a mix of dishes to share, starting with the Fried Truffle Cheese Wonton as our appetizer. We also had Nono’s Salad as part of the spread.

For the main dish, we chose Nono’s Homestyle Fried Chicken and Waffle, served on a big plate. We also picked the Tomato and Basil pasta, also served in a big plate.

For pizza, we went with the Four Cheese, while Nono’s Iced Tea completed the drinks included in the feast.

With one set, we already had chicken, waffles, pasta, pizza, an appetizer, and drinks to share around the table.

More to enjoy beyond the feast

After spending ₱2,995 on the Family Feast, we had ₱1,005 left from our ₱4,000 budget.

Instead of stopping there, we used the remaining amount for dessert and coffee.

For something sweet, we ordered the Ube Indulgence for ₱195 and Blueberry Cheesecake for ₱285.

We also got a Cappuccino with oat milk for ₱235 and a Spanish Latte for ₱225.

We even added an egg for ₱65.

Here’s how everything added up:

Order	Price
Nono’s Family Feast	₱2,995
Ube Indulgence	₱195
Blueberry Cheesecake	₱285
Cappuccino with oat milk	₱235
Spanish Latte	₱225
Added egg	₱65
TOTAL	₱4,000

Making the most of our Nono’s experience

The fun part about this Nono’s experience was that we didn’t just order one big meal and call it a day. By mixing the Family Feast with a couple of pastries, coffee, and an extra egg, we were able to stretch the ₱4,000 budget across different parts of the meal.

The Family Feast alone was enough to give five to six people several dishes to share. Then, with the remaining ₱1,005, we added dessert and coffee to make the meal feel more complete.

Our final spread included Fried Truffle Cheese Wonton, Nono’s Salad, Nono’s Homestyle Fried Chicken and Waffle, Tomato and Basil pasta, Four Cheese pizza, Nono’s Iced Tea, Ube Indulgence, Blueberry Cheesecake, Cappuccino with oat milk, Spanish Latte, and an added egg.

And the best part for this particular challenge?

We spent the entire ₱4,000 budget—down to the last peso.

For us, ₱4,000 at Nono’s meant a table full of food, something sweet to share, coffee to finish the meal, and a chance to enjoy a meal together as a team.
