The tempranillos & altozano shiraz were our favorites until we chanced upon Val Conde (VC) suggested to us by Antonio from Greenbelt. VC is full bodied, smooth and a bit sweet; and order chorizos!
Service is (always) really slow. I just like the Thai bagoong rice. Also worth mentioning is the Vietnamese spring roll. Outstanding Filipino dish? None so far.
Elias' pilosopong pinakbet is the best pinakbet I have tasted ever! Abe, Lorenzo's Way, Cafe Juanita and others are runner-ups in this dish...tuna belly's price is not reasonable.
Absolutely the same menu with Tapella by Gaudi in Greenbelt 5. My favorites are the gambas al ajillo, the blank ink squid and the seafood paella. Tempranillos make my day. Lastly, there is free wi-fi.
Get the steamed chicken without bones, just the healthy breast part. Everything from the soup to the rice to the chicken and roasted pork is genuinely Singaporean!
This is Abe & Fely J's sister Filipino restaurant. Standing out for being unique are the vege-licious fried lumpia that has curry powder in it, the dilis-cious rice &, banana-chocolate volcano.
Sikhye after meal was a respite from the not so impressive gourmet choices in this BBQ resto that most of them tasted the same because maybe they use the same sauce. Absolutely no fish in the menu.
Order the chef's recommendations and you could never go wrong. Free and fast wi-fi connection. Friendly staff but rather boring interior.
The pasta selection is not that bad. If you are into meat the juicy and delectable pork chop is something they do best! Avoid the mediocre beef salpicao.
This is one of the best bar/restaurant combinations in BGC. Price is reasonable and the food tastes good! First level is a non-smoking section (thank God!). The place gets packed around midnight.
A nice place to cap a meal with the varied choices of desserts but this is also a place where the crew failed miserably in servicing customers. Pia C. should re-train her staff! They serve tapa btw.
My favorite Starbucks metrowide. I can keep on writing my book, tucked away at the spacious second level. Drive-thru too, yeah! Extra friendly staff at the counter.
The burger is way better than the brother's (BB). With the absence of Taco Bell in the city, the tacos and burritos are acceptable alternatives. Nice interior and concept but where are the navies?
Tapa is one of the best in town! The beers are sub-zero chilled. The normal glasses are nicely engraved with the diner's logo and name. This is not a bar so don't expect vodka cranberry. W/ al fresco.
Excellent mojito mix! Rightfully done! Wines are 30% off all day long if you get them by the bottle. 50% off cocktails 5-7pm. The salmon burger is the best choice for those with fish-y appetite.
The interior's topnotch & very contemporary. But even with a Thai chef on board, the creamy red curry sauce, shrimp paste fried rice & pad thai talay were failures.Thai iced tea & Illy's coffee, good.
Go for the bestseller Mongolian beef but there's no option for smaller serving. Other food are just normal. Poor fish choices. Nothing else is spectacular except the cozy & huge bi-level place.
This is CBTL's only coffee bar in BGC with the concept to promote CBTL coffee maker that uses the capsule product which they serve to customers; a bit cheaper coffee but nothing beats freshly brewed.
Steak, steak, steak! For breakfast you may try the duck adobo flakes and my favorite, lamb tapa.
bestseller: new york cheesecake pancakes! i also love the blueberry & strawberry pancakes. omelettes are disappointingly thin (duh!) at almost 300 pesos but taste great anyway. place: poor acoustics.
Taste-wise, I will rate the ramen here above average but the noodles are unexpectedly thin and the serving is not worth the ~php400 price. They serve only cold (not hot) bottomless house tea.
The staff are very attentive. The bagoong rice is ok. The milk tea lacks its expected sweetness. The rest of the food are just average.The fried pla pla w/ sour sauce is expensive for its serving
Order rosu! I'm not fond of katsu but I would say they've the meatiest & arguably the best katsu I have tasted. Grinding the sesame seeds is fun! It is the newest Yabu branch in the Metro!
The tenderloin (without fats) is soft, tender and juicy. Better than Yabu I might say! Except for the katsu, everything else is unlimited from the cabbage to the pickles to the miso soup to the tea.
The communist ramen's blazingly hot! There are only around less than 30 seats so there is always a queue during peak hours. Ukkokei still has the best ramen but Wrong is one of the best in BGC.
Despite some negative comments, I was resolute to experience T.E. personally. It turned out to be a great dining experience. Food was great from the lobster guacamole to the U.S. Hanger Steak.
