Asian Twist – N.S. Amoranto, Quezon City

Filed under: Asian, Fusion, Quezon City — gourmandtales @ 11:26 am

THis is the newest restaurant in this area, near Banawe Quezon City.  Specializing in Asian Fusion cuisine.. or so they say.

Located in N.S. Amoranto St or better known as Retiro. It has very nice signage.  Place was very brightly lit. Consist of 2 floors. Service is a little slow and expect little mistakes from the staff so be sure to let then repeat what you order to lessen the confusion

On the Table

Seafood Bibimbap- DSC00145DSC00146 i ordered the seafood cream bibimbap but this was the one served, i didnt have it changed anymore. Anyway, it was served in a traditional sotne bowl to keep the food hot and cook the egg. It has lots of seafood. the shrimps were plump and crunchy. My only rant here is that, their bibimbap then to be on the dry side, but still good.

Jane’s Pajeon- DSC00147 Jane is suppose to be one of the owners of this resto, and having a dish named after the owner , i guess it really worth a try.  THe pajeon as you can see here is pan fried to a delightful golden brown crisp, which i different on what we usually get in korean restaurants. It is very tasty, and i love the crunch. Problem is it tends to be oily

VEggie and tofu tempura- DSC00149DSC00150there was a typo in the menu, saying they serve eggplant in this dish. However, there were no eggplant see, just the usual Kakiage and tofu. Fried to crispy perfecttion. A nice appetizer

Mango something shake(forgot the name)- DSC00143Mango with calamansi syurp. Its a mango shake with a twist indeed. A wonderful thirst quencher

Banapple shake- DSC00144 another shake, very very good. light and refreshing.

I didnt like how they didnt follow the order of how food is supposed to be served, you know…. appetizers before the main dish… THe first dish to arrive was the Bibimbap. Then the appetizers were served seperately. They should try serving sppetizers the same time and main dishes after appetizers.. I think that would be just right, however, food is very affordable and serving size more than adequate. TRy it:)

  2. Interesting, will probably give this a try in a month or so, when they’ve settled in and service is better. :) Thanks for sharing!
