This was meant to be another eat-before-shopping thing with my beau.
Only this time, we made his 'little' sister tag along.
She wanted steak which made us decide to eat at French Baker.
It was also my first
time to be in a restaurant with a monitor where you can monitor the 'status' of every dish you ordered. That was pretty cool!
THE FOOD
Complementary soup
I love how it was thick
and creamy. Initially however, although there were three of us dining, they
only served 2, I guess for every meal with viand. But as the promised 15
minutes of waiting time passed with 2 of our orders yet to come, they served 2
more as compensation for the wait.
My Style White Sauce
Carbonara Pizza [Php130]
It tasted like a thick
layer of cheese and tasted very yummy over the thin soft crust! The crust
however was a little too soft that it was hard to slice using the knife they
provided. A knife a little sharper would have made cutting and lifting parts
adhered to the metal plate, a little easier. But nevermind the thin crust, the
cheese alone was satisfying. Plus, it was a good neutralizer to the bitter
taste from the bleu cheeseburger.
Bleu Cheeseburger +
Barbeque Chips [Php190]
If we knew that this was
going to be huge, maybe we would have passed on ordering an addition pizza.
Good thing we all had big appetites. J The patty was thick and
there was a hefty amount of veggies and tomatoes as well. You have to slice it
or press it hard to fit into your mouth. The 3 of us shared over it and all
felt satisfied – taste and quantity wise. I however think that there was no
cheese but rather mustard because it tasted a little bitter. Nonetheless, it
was delicious. The chips were also flavorful I hoped there was more of it.
Honey Roast pork Al
Orange +Rice [Php199]
The loveliest thing
about this dish is that smoky smell coming from the pork roasted to a perfect
tenderness, complimented by that citrus aroma of the sauce.
Hamburger steak + Roll
[Php173]
The steak tasted like
heaven on that bed of sizzling and smoking gravy. The vegetable slices at the
side complimented the bold taste of the steak.
Lemon Iced Tea Il Carafe
[Php150]
Refreshing drink blended
just right to wash any aftertaste and readying the palate for the next dish.
