Have you ever tried the Pasta-in-a-Cup goodies from Goodles? If you're fond of watching movies at the Robinsons Galleria Cinemas, you have probably seen this kiosk at the cinema level. It's actually an oldie, but it's my first time to try it out. We were quite hurried, with a movie to catch and no dinner yet; so we decided to take away Goodles pasta.
Goodles serve home-made pasta in a cup (a take on cup noodles I guess), which is very convenient if you're watching a movie. They have quite a number of flavors to choose from: Classics to Moroccan Beef, the tomato- or cream- based pasta. Prices go for as low as P125, and you can add P35 for a Goodles Combo (with garlic bread + iced tea).
We finally decided on Meatballs Marinara and Chicken Spinach Pesto. When I first saw the final product, I was a bit disappointed. If you see their product photos above (first photo of this entry), you'll see cups filled to the brim with pasta, but what we got was about 3/4 filled cups. I'd say it was pricey for the serving portion.

The only thing left was the taste. Thankfully, we enjoyed the pasta quality and taste. And despite the serving portion looking small, it was really quite filling. (Guys would probably not be as full though). Meatballs Marinara was the better option, though. I liked the tomato base and the meatballs were quite good too. Chicken Spinach Pesto was okay, a bit oily and I think it lacked chicken portions, which made it less filling and value-for-money.

For a quick, different, home-flavor movie meal, Goodles may be an option; just don't expect over-the-top taste or portions.
