I told Elizabeth about it and she said we had to bring them to Robuchon, the #1 restaurant in Asia (2009/2010) according to The Miele Guide. It would be a once inContinue reading “L’Atelier de Joël Robuchon with the J brothers”

Chelsea Market and Cafe
After the horrendous dinner at La Régalade we didn’t dare order dessert lest it be another disaster. We decided to go to Chelsea in Serendra where the desserts are fabulous. Warren and I wanted to go for food and not dessert. I only ate 2 slices of bread and a bite of lamb chop atContinue reading “Chelsea Market and Cafe”
Dinner at La Regalade
I’m jumping over a month’s worth of restaurant reviews and fast forwarding to last Friday’s (4/9/2010) dinner. It’s important for me to get this review out as soon as possible.

Honeymoon Dessert
After dinner at Te we went next door to have dessert at Honeymoon Dessert. I never had such a hard time choosing dessert. In a western restaurant my choice would almost always contain the word chocolate. In Honeymoon Dessert you won’t find the word chocolate anywhere. What you will see are the words sweet balls,Continue reading “Honeymoon Dessert”

Over the top lunch at Century Seafood restaurant
One unassuming Sunday we drove all the way to Malate for lunch at Century Seafood restaurant. I thought it was going to be an ordinary lunch until the food came out. The Hainanese chicken was one of the best I’ve tried in Manila. The chicken was tender, juicy and slightly salty.Hainanese chicken P800 sauces forContinue reading “Over the top lunch at Century Seafood restaurant”
Desserts from Angel’s Kitchen
After trying Angel’s Kitchen’s date and walnut bread and loving it, I went back the next week to buy another pack. I saw the fresh apple pie on the counter and I knew I had to buy a slice. I’ve tried their apple pie a long time ago and I don’t remember it making anContinue reading “Desserts from Angel’s Kitchen”
