Phat Wong Asian Cafe on Nicanor Garcia St. in Bel-Air, Makati has been on my list of must-try restaurants. This is the reason why we found ourselves here on a rainy Thursday to catch the last day of a Deal Grocer promotion: only P150 for P300 worth of food in Chef Ariel Manuel's Asian-themed eatery (he's more known for fine dining at Lolo Dad's). Frankly, I thought my coupon would only get me as far as ordering one appetizer, but this was not the case. There were a lot of reasonably-priced items which makes this place great for snacking, especially when you find ... Continue Reading...
Postscript to Yummy Eats 2012: thanks for visiting our booth!
The Chicken Delish kitchen was up to a ginormous challenge for Yummy Eats 2012 (held recently in Rockwell Tent): prepare food for 1,200 people. For a fledgling food purveyor like us, I thought at first that this was something that couldn't be done but my philosophy eventually turned out to be "just go with it!" It was certainly a great consolation to see our name up there in this marker - It didn't matter that I worked the graveyard shift the night before and was sleepless for 38 hours by the time the event finished at 9 pm. Participating in a major food ... Continue Reading...
‘Cue Modern Barbecue in Bonifacio High Street Central
'Cue is one of the successful restaurants in BHS Central at the moment. It gets packed, even on weekdays. We hear it from sources that 'Cue is owned by first-time restaurateurs. This convinces me of the fact that great-tasting food & good menu selection is the key! Warning! Don't go to 'Cue if you're a vegetarian or just starting your Cohen diet. You'll definitely suffer :) 'Cue is for die-hard carnivores (read: can't live without meat) and families or big groups who want to relish their comfort food like finger-lickin' ribs and more! Proof of the fact that ... Continue Reading...
SLICE in Bonifacio High Street Central
My week has been busy with lunches and dinners. And it seems most of them are centered on the newest place in town to explore your culinary palate further ... Bonifacio High Street Central in Bonifacio Global City (just across the huge store of R.O.X.) For a product launch, I was glad to dine at SLICE - the resto of Sen. Pia Cayetano. Ambiance was, overall, bright and cheery. The prices aren't bad either - you can enjoy coffee and cake for a little less than P200. Our friend Franco told me not to miss the yema chocolate cupcake (P70 each). The condensada/dulce de ... Continue Reading...
The Cake Club: not just about cakes
I had my trepidation the first time I heard about The Cake Club. First, I thought it was so generic-sounding for a dessert place and held no appeal for someone like me who's trying to a) lose weight and b) avoid diabetes. I was certainly glad to find that the place offered more than desserts. Although you're highly encouraged to clinch your meal with a sweet, happy ending...more on that later. We started our meal with a highly-indulgent appetizer called the foie gras macaron (P150 each), fashioned by the Diamond Hotel's executive chef Nick Stoyanov from a French ... Continue Reading...
