Foie Gras Macaroon PHP 150
I kinda freaked out when I first heard about the Foie Gras Macaroon. Duck liver macaroon?? I didn't know whether it sounded appetizing to me or not, all I knew was that I had to get my hands on them and straight to my mouth immediately. This macaroon is definitely an acquired taste, just as foie gras is. It was sweet at first but as I chewed along the saltiness and foie gras flavor bursted out. I enjoyed it but it isn't something I'd crave for.


Truffle Fries PHP 180 "Sea salt flakes, garlic mayonnaise or ketchup"


This appetizer was really simple yet fulfilling. Their fries were all fried to perfection with just the right amount of truffle flavor, plus it wasn't greasy at all.


GM's Favorite PHP 210 "Forest mushrooms, fresh buffalo cheese, balsamic vinaigrette"


The salad was placed on a delicate parmesan crisp bowl which went well with everything on the plate, especially the tangy vinaigrette. I liked how they incorporated the many different flavors and textures into this dish. Light and fresh, like how any salad should be.


Porcini Mushroom Crepe PHP 435 "White wine, cream, emmental"


By the time I was done eating my first crepe I wasn't interested on touching the second one anymore. It was great but not something I can eat a lot of, it's probably better off being eaten as a starter rather than a main dish. Honestly not something I would order again, another reason why is because of it's price.


Roast Chicken PHP 415 "Haricot verts, mushroom, potatoes"
I could tell my dad really enjoyed his dish, he wiped out his plate quickly and had no complaints at all.

Vanessa PHP 250 "Our GM's favorite! Made of pistachio macaroons and fresh strawberries"


The Cake Club offers two different kinds of dessert macaroons, Vanessa and Ispahan, both about the size of my fist. Something all macaroon lovers will surely go crazy about. I know I did!

  12. Oh man oh man, I am at work, in the cold horrid rainy UK, sitting in front of my desk pretending to work, but actually browsing blogs and I see this post and I'm drooling. Your food piccies are really lovely and nicely taken. Everything you ordered is right up my street and only wish I had every plate in front of me right now.

    Anyhow, feel free to say hi to me at my blog. Would love to stay in touch?
