Whenever we have visitors from other countries, they'd often ask us to bring them to a Filipino restaurant. So where do we normally bring them - Gerry's Grill, Dencios, Cabalen, Kamayan, Barrio Fiesta ... But one time we found this resto in Greenbelt 3 which serves "modern" Filipino dishes. They are not the traditional Filipino food we know. I, myself, was curious to taste their food when I saw the menu ... I think I have visited this resto for more than 5 times already!

What have I already tasted from their menu :

• Corned Beef in Tamarind Soup (PhP 340) : yup you read it right! Imagine, Sinigang na Corned Beef?! I think I was able to finally convince myself to try it on my 3rd visit to this resto. I was hesitating because I cannot imagine how it would taste. I was afraid that I would just waste hundred pesos on something which I cannot eat ... But okay, my colleagues from Singapore finally convinced me! ... The verdict? it was okay, nothing really fantastic, but it is really different!


• Sizzling Tofu (PhP 185) : Diced tofu in a special soy dressing served on a sizzling plate


• Fried Kesong Puti (PhP 190) : Organic native white cheese, coated with breadcrumbs and deep-fried until golden brown. Drizzled with sweet chili guava sauce and served with garlic dip

Fried Kesong Puti

• Green Mango Salad (PhP 165) : Green mangoes, tomatoes, onions, turnips, salted egg, topped with sweet and spicy chilis


• Okra & Garlic Chives (PhP 140) : Sauteed quickly in garlic and butter. Simple yet very tasty


• Boneless Crispy Trotter (PhP 390) : Deboned Crispy Pata


• Rated GG (PhP 185) : This is a great discovery! Galunggong fillets fired in garlic oil and topped with browned garlic


• Spinach & Glass Noodles (PhP 170) : Quickly stir-fried bright green spinach and vermicelli rice noodles

My absolute favorites :

• Fried Kesong Puti
• Boneless Crispy Trotter

What I don't like about this resto :
