Brunch at Mom and Tina's Bakery Cafe

         After so many failed attempts to try Mom and Tina's Bakery Cafe we finally got a chance to try it out. After a quick shopping spree at F.A.S.H Boutique and Common Room, we giddily went to Mom and Tina's Bakery Cafe to try it out. 

         My gosh, they have a lot of food offerings in the Menu. We tried out the soup of the day which was Mushroom Soup and it was delish. But I still can't get over the Mushroom Soup from Luljetta's Hanging Garden and Spa.  The Bacon & Spinach Quiche was also good was not able to finish it though because we still had Paella Valenciana and Roast Pork coming.  The Paella was just OK while the Roast Pork is definitely a must try! The tender slices of oven-roasted pork served with gravy, mixed vegetables, mashed potatoes and rice was just devine, but then again don't just take my word for it. Go for that extra rice too! hehe :) For dessert we got the Dark Toblerone Walnut Torte and White Toblerone Walnut Torte it was so good too! ^_^

          The place is inviting and the vibe is cozy.  The servers were attentive and accommodating.  Kudos to that! ^_^

Soup of the Day
Made fresh every day, served with garlic cheese rolls.

Bacon & Spinach Quiche
Savory pie filled with bacon, spinach, onion and cheese.

Paella Valenciana
An old favorite – chicken, seafood and rice sautéed in olive oil with garlic, tomatoes and chorizo.

Roast Pork
Tender slices of oven-roasted pork served with gravy, mixed vegetables, mashed potatoes and rice.

Dark Toblerone Walnut Torte and White Toblerone Walnut Torte
Chunky dark  and white Toblerone chocolate inside a chewy walnut torte topped with cream.

          There were too many cakes and cupcakes on display that we wanted to try but was too full. A second visit is a must!  ^_^

The B&P Just Like Home Experience

           I was going to a brunch meeting with my Business Partner and she asked where I would like to eat, since Mandaluyong is not my turf I asked her for options, she suggested a desserts place and B&P, I opted for B&P because I wanted a real meal and I'm glad I made the right choice.

           B&P's ambiance is bright and has that cozy atmosphere and the interiors spells HAPPINESS. B&P Just like home is a casual dining restaurant that offers a modern take on well-loved breakfast specialties.

          There were too many delish looking food in the menu and I was so hungry I opted for one of my comfort food, Chicken and French Toast <3 - BNP Chick to Chick, Just by looking at the plating it'll make you drool. The Chicken here is sooooooooo good its now part of my Top 10 Fried Chicken List. The French Toast was also a delight. The texture is just about the perfect texture for a French Toast for me, not to soggy and not dry --- Perfect!

            My Business Partner ordered the French Pork Chop which was also very good, the combination of the greens and the pork chop complemented the dish well.

           When I asked for another serving of gravy it took a while because they had to make it from scratch. The wait was nothing compared to what was about to embrace my fried chicken. This is heaven. Plus I must say the Chef who prepared our food sure does know how to make food pretty! Since it was an open kitchen I could see her do her thing in there, she really looks passionate and she makes sure that everything that comes out her kitchen are not only highly pleasant to the taste but also a work of art.  Kudos Chef! ^_^

National Siblings Day @ Recipes

To celebrate National Siblings Day I decided to treat my sibs to an early dinner before going to work. It is seldom that we would go out for Filipino Food but I got this crazy craving for Recipes' Catfish - Green Mango perfectly paired with Crispy Tilapia. Yummy! 

Le Menu

Catfish Green Mango

Lechon Kawali With Kangkong
Belly slices, kangkong in vinegar and soy sauce 
I think It would've been better without the sauce at the bottom because it doesn't give off that crunchy texture we like in our Lechon Kawali.

Crispy Tilapia
Fillet Strips, sweet and spicy soy sauce on the side
This is heaven. I don't like fish that much but this is sooooooooo good! A must try! :) 

General's Chicken
Thigh fillet chunks, eggplant slices, Recipes' special sweet - spicy sauce

LE SIBS
Too bad we didn't have a group pic because my other sister took forever to return to the restaurant and my brother was sleeping in another time zone. But here's A throwback pic of us together.. from another resto.. hihi ^_^v
