Refueling and changing of tires at a pitstop will only take seconds. Refueling at this pitstop will take more than that. A long long while more than that. What with three menus, front and back, to read through and decide upon.

Other mango stuff spotted in the restaurant: mango ketchup, mango jam, mango bars.
But there is an exception. Me! I was like one of the pit crew, in 2 seconds flat, even before the server had reached my table, I had already told him what I wanted: Mango Pizza. Cheese, ripe yellow mangoes, green bell pepper, and cashew nuts. On crust.

It was strange (fruity and cheesy!) at first bite but I quickly grew to like it. And like a race car driver, I blazed through the pizza like Lightning McQueen! Okay, 2/3 thru, my tank was already full, so Mater slowly towed 1/3 of the pizza under his hood and leisurely sipped his Pitstop Guimaras blend (calamansi, orange, and cucumber juice).
On my next pitstop, I shall try Pitstop Restaurant's other mango dishes: chicken/pork mango adobo dish, fish fillet with mango sauce, mango bangus sisig, mango beef bulalo, and chicken mango curry. After that, you can call me Lightning Mangoeen.
Just so you know: The Pitstop Restaurant was born in Guimaras, the "home of the sweetest mangoes." The Pitstop Restaurant now has four branches in Guimaras.
