I have never been a true blue vegatarian eater, not liking veggies when i was a jkid, because of how my mom would cook vegetables. Its just when i was an adult that i learn to appreciate the health benefits of veggies and to like its taste(well, not all the veggies)
This restaurant is where PALATOFINO used to be. I never liked the food of the previously mentioned mediterranean restaurant. But this place seems like an interesting restaurant.
THe interiors looks very very clean. Homey ambience. Nice jazz music playing in the background. service was very nice as well.
On the Table
Spinach Feta Croquette P160-
3 delectable croquttes made from red organic rice, spinach and feta cheese, comb9ined together then pan fried till it gets a nice brown crust. served with yogurt sauce and sprinkled with chili powder. Its a wonderful appetizer. Nice combination of all the three main ingredients.
Seasoned well. THe yogurt sauce did a great job in balancing the heat of the harrisa. I would order this dish again.
Bocconcini Caprese Salad P190 -”Bocconcini” is a brand that makes fresh buffalo mozzarella.
i was surprised wth the presentation, not the usual where u get slices of mozzarella then layers it with sliced tomatoes. They did it using chunk of tomatoes and mozzarella. The mozzarella was indeed good, not the mozzarella that are used in pizza places here in the country. The tomatoes are very red and tasted more sweet than tangy. THe vinagrette was just perfect. Love it.
This restaurant is a good place to start eating vegetarian, would i be a vegetarian? Not in the near future but i would like to incorporate it in my diet. Try it out. though i have yet to eat the main dishes… but i think they are prepared well also
