Alabang is certainly far enough to go for fine dining if you don’t live there. But eating at The French Corner has been one of my great gastronomic experiences lately that I wouldn’t hesitate to dine here again.

This resto prides itself of its “Creative Continental cuisine” crafted by noted gourmet chef Billy King. It is one of the mainstays in the cozy complex called the Westgate Center. The prices aren’t to be scoffed at, and this is one of the places to go to when you want to impress your date – most especially because of the great service. It certainly looked like the waitstaff was trained on this aspect.

Then of course, there’s the food. Here’s what we ate at The French Corner:

Salad panache with grilled prawn, vegetable, pomelo, grapes in creamy balsamic and sesame dressing. A salad to love, even for someone like me who has to be forced to eat a salad. It’s all in the dressing.
