ted p's

There's a new restaurant along Maginhawa St., UP Village :) From the family which brought us Good Burger comes another new food concept at ted p's. Serving whole wheat pizza and baked sandwiches, ted p's takes healthy food to another level. I'm sure the concept will appeal especially to those who love a healthy pizza alternative.



ted p's is a small space with simple interiors; a few paintings hung on its off-white wooden walls. I didn't quite like their choice of chair color though, blue doesn't seem to fit in somehow. And why ted p's? According to the dad of the owner, the resto name was a mix of the first names of the partners who started the venture. Hope they have another reason behind the name, hehe :)


Prices are not so bad, and were generally at par with the other restaurants in the area. If ever, you give a little premium to the health angle of the food they serve. We had the 1/4 order of the following: Chili Shrimp, Greca, and Kung Pao Chicken. We tried the Brewed Ice Tea and the Choco Banana Cream for dessert :)


Among the pizza flavors, we liked Chili Shrimp the best :) Followed by Kung Pao Chix, then Greca. The whole wheat thin crust was, as expected, not the usual crunchy, thin crust we get in other restos. But I'd rather have a healthy pizza than a super crunchy, oily crust, so I didn't really mind. Just note that it might be better to dine in; the crust may be a bit tough if you get the pizza to go and it becomes cold.

Enjoyed the Banana Choco Cream dessert, but it could've been way better had the chocolate been Nutella :) The whole wheat crust on this one, though, was a bit more tough. Something that they could definitely improve on. Nevertheless, I think chocolate is always a good thing; wouldn't mind trying out their dessert again.

Kung Pao Chix (Chicken, Bell Peppers, Wansoy, Kung Pao Sauce), P110

Greca (Eggplant, Tomatoes, Olives, Garlic Aioli), P110

Chili Shrimp (Shrimp, Garlic, Tomato, Mozzarella, Arugula), P110

Choco Banana Cream, P120

Maybe I'll give their baked sandwiches a try soon :)
