Drink All You Can at Richmonde

2008-02-21T11:17:00.005+08:00

It was a last minute idea of Reena's. I emailed friends if they were interested but since it was last minute...they had already made plans. Tumuloy pa din kami just the two of us although Anthony later joined us.

Sobrang sulit. I had four drinks. The best was the Majesty. I can drink it straight sa sarap.

Dimples, Majesty and Banana Cake

The Majesty

Banana Cake and Chocolate Cake

The buffet had different kinds of pizza, spicy beef, pork asado, shrimp cocktail on cucumber, waldorf salad, tortilla, chicken pastel, and different kinds of cakes. Super! Kulang na lang kanin sana :D

Grilled Pork Chops with home-made apple sauce and potato-corn gratin

Last week we finally satisfied our curiosity when we finally had dinner at Apartment 1B. I first read about this place at Anton's blog and I realized that I always pass by this place whenever I pick up Aileen from the office. Last week we got to the try the Grilled Pork Chops with home-made apple sauce, Meatloaf with garlic mashed potatoes and mushroom gravy and their white toblerone cheesecake. Unfortunately, I forgot to snap some pictures.

Vegetable & Three Cheese Lasagna

A week later, we found ourselves back at Apartment 1B. This time I was able to take some pictures. Aileen had the pork chops again while I tried their vegetable & three cheese lasagna. For dessert, we just went for our tried and tested white toblerone cheesecake.

The food was delicious. The portions were just right. The ambiance was cozy. We were fortunate enough to be seated without reservations on both occasions as they were packed. We will definitely eat here again.

EDR's Tacos and Braso de Mercedes

2007-08-16T15:09:00.000+08:00

EDR is the best place to eat when it's raining..and it's been raining nonstop all week. So once again, lunch is at the EDR. It's Karen, Triccie and me. Reena's been raving about the Tacos so Karen and I decided to share since there are two big tacos in one order. It was really good! Lotsa flavor and really cheezy. The salsa complemented perfectly.

For dessert I had Braso de Mercedes and its was so yummy...very soft and not too sweet. Perfect!

15Aug07 - was raining cats & dogs, so edr was the best choice. kar & mawee split the tacos, while i had korean beef bulgogi w/ kimchee. kimchee toooooo spicy for me, bulgogi was so-so, could hv been better if piping hot, could it be the cold weather? - mine got sebo too quickly

Gourmet Food?

2007-08-09T16:12:00.001+08:00

I've been bitten by the gourmet bug lately (thanks to Gordon Ramsay's Hell's Kitchen and the movie Ratatoulie) so when we had lunch at the EDR last August 8, I decided look for something gourmet-sounding from the menu. This is what I ended up ordering... Pork tenderloin stuffed with camembert cheese and asparagus served with mixed vegetables and roasted baby potato drizzled with black truffle sauce. Does that sound gourmet to you?

Ebi Tempura at the EDR

2007-08-09T12:05:00.001+08:00

We don't have a regular weekly lunch day anymore. So anyday can be the weekly lunch day. Yesterday (8 August, Wednesday), Triccie thought of lunching at the EDR because it's been raining all week. So Triccie, Reena (surprise!), Karen, Jasper, and I met at the EDR. I had Ebi Tempura (my favorite), with Miso Soup, and Iced Tea.

Karen had this Korean omelet thing (she forgot what it's called - papa something in Korean). She also had Tom Yum Soup (no pic).

After lunch, we all kinda went crazy trying out the bluetooth of our mobile phones. as if it were a new thing. Triccie couldn't receive anything we sent her. Surprisingly, Reena got hers to work...hehehe
