CHEF'S TABLE

4.25 out of 5

Chef's Table Restaurant feels like his show ---- modern, but traditional; cozy but cutting-edge; Filipino, but world-class. Let me be say that I never discounted other establishments from being world-class. But Philippine cuisine has been so hard to to push as a legitimate form of world cuisine because of its closely-guarded (or closed-off) recipes and food presentation that leaves it unexplained to foreigners. This is why I'm so happy to see the sprouting of restaurants like "Abe," "Lorenzo's Way," "Fely J," "C2," "Mesa" and this one to show that Philippine cooking is a technical art and is comparable with the other leading cuisines.

The place is spacious, sleek and geometric. Yet, there are Philippine touches interwoven within its architecture, such as having native fiber walls. It is best described by the his architect firm, Buensalido Architects:

"The core idea is that of weaving. This act of intertwining was chosen because of its ubiquity in the Filipino culture as can be seen in different aspects of life – banigs, salakot, salakab, barong tagalog, vintas, and even the native bahag, just to name a few. This idea manifested in different levels of the design – in space, in views, in form, and in materials."

The kitchen is not just an open kitchen usually separated by glass. It is completely open with no dividers or walls, with the countertop dividing the cooking area and dining area. It is actually an ideal type of kitchen to showcase the cooking prowess of Chef Lim, who is used to cooking for the public and the media.

Before we ate, we started off with cocktails. Just like the food, these alcoholic mixes also have touches of Philippine inspiration in it. For instance, my drink, Ellen's Kiss (130 PhP) has the typical pineapple, gin and pomegranate juice found in tropical mixed drinks. However, it's laced with lambanog and lemongrass, adding that native twist. Unfortunately, I wasn't too fond of spicy hot and sweet taste simultaneously, and was a tad disappointed when they added chili to the already complicated concoction.

Ellen's Kiss (130 PhP)

Our appetizers followed: Crab Cakes (370 PhP) and Hot Rock Pusit (250 PhP). These dishes were winners and loved by all. An additional pusit was even ordered before continuing with our entrees. Interestingly enough, the crab cakes was served with sampaloc aioli. However, the sauce didn’t taste tart, and felt more like a creamy Japanese sesame dressing. Nevertheless, we sopped up all the bits and crumbs of the crab and cream. It was the perfect crabcake, bursting with juicy crab meat yet crunchy on the outside, the flavor enhanced by what tasted like panko breadcrumbs.

Crab Cakes (370 PhP)

The Hot Rock Pusit (250 PhP) was cooked between hot rocks, really! This beer-battered concoction bore the checkered rock marks that made the texture interesting and, thankfully, cooked to perfection! It was tender, tasty and the least bit gummy.

Hot Rock Pusit (250 PhP)

We might as well bring out all the bad news before raving about the rest of the entrees. The Pinaputok na Isda (460 PhP), Lato (150 PhP) and Banana Heart Carbonara (280 PhP) were the most boring of the lot. The Lapu-lapu still remained unseasoned even if steamed with lemongrass and topped with tomato concasse. The seaweed or “sea grapes” as the menu so loftily put, looked dramatic with colorful hues from the ripe red tomatoes and tiny pink shallots on top. The seaweed itself looked like tiny green gems, and were not ordinarily that small. However, the taste was unlike how it looked --- ordinary. Finally, the Banana Heart pasta was ho-hum. The banana heart was overwhelmed in the creamy pasta.

The dinner was more than redeemed with the rest of the dishes. The Corned Pork (300++ PhP) was a cup-shaped serving of the most tender pork strips on a bed of laing garnished with lechong kawali bits. I loved how spicy, creamy and intensely flavorful the laing was. And pork skin? Who wouldn’t eat that?! It was paired perfectly with tinapa rice.

Corned Pork (300++ PhP)

The Calamansi Tuyo Spaghetti (210 PhP) was bright and light, with citrus notes from the calamansi juice and tangy from the queso de bola. Tuyo oil and flakes were predictably mixed in. Though often tried and tested in modern Filipino restaurants, it was still well executed and delicious.

Calamansi Tuyo Spaghetti (210 PhP)

The Adobong Pusit Pasta (210 PhP) was a work of genius, and was even better than the tuyo pasta! The adobong pusit had a robust and meaty flavor. The pusit was perfectly stewed in squid ink and spices. I only wish it was paired with a sturdier pasta than angel hair.

Indeed, the piece de resistance was the Braised Liempo (350 ++ PhP). It was slowly braised in humba sauce. And was it ever so good! I have never seen liempo that juicy and tender in my life. I didn’t even need to use a knife, it would give with a slight shove of a fork. And the flavor was earthy and concentrated. I would come back just to eat this liempo again!

Braised Liempo (350 ++ PhP)

However, I wouldn’t have that opportunity to do so. Fortunately for the customers, Chef Lim is innovative enough to update and change his menus with seasonal ingredients. As of the moment, it has been replaced with equally tasty-sounding dishes like Chicken Jamon or Sirloin of Beef with sigarilyas.

After dining at Chef’s Table, I have very high hopes for the globalization of Filipino cuisine. It’s a breath of fresh air to have chefs who use our native ingredients proudly with such skill and technique. Restaurants like these help enlighten diners that our own dishes are comparable to those with fancy, difficult to pronounce names. Happy eating!

S'MAC

4.5 out of 5 stars

I just saw the folders of restos I would want to write on, and it's still so numerous :o At the risk of delaying some work, I decided to write on my New York line-up since it would be harder going back to these places unlike the ones in Manila.

I'll start the line-up right with this cute little place called S'MAC. It's a quaint place in the East Village that serves nothing but....you guessed it, macaroni and cheese. It's been featured in several shows and magazines for being a restaurant with such a specific niche. Nothing intimidating about it when you enter, at all. The interiors are small but sunny, literally, since the furniture is all in yellow, except for the red brick wall to one side and the red trimmings on the wall. The decoration is modern, yet kitschy to the point of being cute. Wired chandeliers, inverted cone lamps, those kinds of things.

It's called S'MAC cos it's owned by Sarita Ekya. Her recommendations are posted along with the rest of the menu on the counter, and you place your orders here like in fast food joints or a canteen. Actually, her recommendations make all of the menu, but there's another section where you can build your own mac and cheese and you just tell them what toppings to place. The great part is, they have take and bake, where you can order then bake and eat your S'MAC later at home, as well as delivery. They're also considerate enough to provide you a choice of regular, multi-grain or gluten-free elbow macaroni, with or without breadcrumbs on top.

My friends and I got a nosh (being the smallest serving, then major much, mongo and partay! the last one serving aroun 8-12 people) of Buffalo Chicken, Parisienne and Cheeseburger Mac and Cheese. You know it's American sizes because when it came to us, our noshes still looked huge, and we regretted getting three servings because we were still up for brunch (which became a 3 pm brunch, the line was that long) at Prune later.

All three of them looked the same, the sauce slightly differing in hues of yellow. But once you bite into it, it's a world of difference! The Cheeseburger ($5.75) is for the hearty meat eater. As described, it's "ground beef done to perfection with onions, garlic and a hint of ketchup and mustard. Don't forget the best part - a combination of American and Cheddar cheeses." It honestly tasted like a cheeseburger, and I liked it out of the three because of it's mild but beefy taste, and is likeable to most palates.

The Buffalo Chicken (&6.75) is basically "cheddar & American cheeses with boneless chicken pieces and buffalo wing sauce. We’ll even top it off with crumbled blue cheese if you’d like!" This had the most zing and spice, and I had to reach for my soda several times because my mouth tingled after (but in a good way, of course :) The taste of this mac and cheese actually grows on you as you get accustomed to its bold, chili-barbecue flavor.

Lastly, the Parisienne ($6.75) is written as "mac-n-Cheese for the "upper crust". Creamy brie, roasted figs, roasted shiitake mushrooms & fresh rosemary. It's addictive!" I liked this the least, though my friends love it. I guess I'm not used to my mac and cheese, which is usually savory, being somewhat sweet due to the figs and brie. I love brie, but alone or baked by itself in philo. The shiitake was a brilliant addition, though, and I could really taste the flavor of the rosemary permeate the entire dish.

From top to bottom: Parisienne, Buffalo Chicken, Cheeseburger

Even if we said that the servings were big (considering that we're still going to eat less than an hour later), we gobbled everything down it was that good. Creative concept, fairly quick service and easy on the pockets...It's a great hole-in-the-wall that is truly unique to NY.

MALCOLM'S PLACE

2.75 out of 5 stars

A piece of wagyu by any other name...... doesn't taste the same. This I've learned in Malcolm's Place, a two-storey corner cafe specializing in different wagyu cooking methods.

Take the intro any way you want, good or bad. It could swing both ways. Good because I've never tasted wagyu in so many different varieties. Bad because in some ways, the wagyu just tastes like....regular beef.

When you enter the place, it feels very airy with their floor-to-ceiling glass walls and exposed kitchen with glass dividers. When you eat upstairs on the second, it's less roomy, but more cozy with colorful cushioned seats and small booth areas. The ambience is very laid-back, and you can really let your hair down.

It's a welcome treat that they offer you fried wonton skins to nibble on while ordering from the menu. You dip it in this mayo-calamansi sauce that was a little too sour for me. But hey, it's free, who's complaining?

Being the "trying-to-be-healthy" people that we are, we started with the Kani Krunch (165 PhP) and the Napa Time (160 PhP). The first is made of greens, jicama, mangoes, kani and the same fried wonton skins (that were served as freebies) on oriental dressing. Jicama is english for "singkamas," and even if it's somewhat bland, it absorbs all the dressing, and is a good complement to the salad. Even the wonton skins gave the Kani Krunch it's Krunch, but the dressing somehow tasted off, like it was a little too sour, or it had too much balsamic vinegar. It would have been better if they used the bright, citrusy accents of a Yuzu dressing and perhaps exchanged the wontons for avocado or fish roe.

The Napa Time was, I think, a better salad. It was composed of mixed greens with candied walnuts, grapes, goat cheese and drizzled with raspberry vinaigrette. Goat cheese has a bland but rich taste, so it matched the sweetness of the caramelized walnuts and grapes. And they were very generous with the fruits and cheese, too, which is always a bonus. The salad was tossed perfectly with the dressing just coating the salad instead of drowning it.

The Wagyu Salpicao tasted great. It was seasoned thoroughly and had a well-rounded meaty flavor characteristic of wagyu. However, it wasn't as tender and melt-in-your-mouth like butter as I expected it to be, what with its high marbling content. It wasn't even just chewy, which is brought about by the finer-marbling of Pinoy wagyu (yes, friends, we have our very own wagyu cattle in CDO cross-bred from Australia). It was tough, hard to slice through and had ligament portions. Maybe we can attribute it toughness to other factors like the way the meat was stored, or how it was cooked, but certainly something wasn't entirely right in the process. Don't get me wrong, though. It tasted delicious because it was so flavorful. It just wasn't tender enough to bring in all that hype about wagyu. Being the eater that I am, though, I inhaled this dish in a matter of minutes.

The Wagyu Burger Steak was alright. I wasn't really sure whether this was a burger steak or a wagyu stroganoff anymore since it's been awhile since I ate here writing about it now, but I do remember the salpicao tasting a lot better than this dish in terms of seasoning. Anyway, both of them are not a part of the regular menu, but is only included in the insert, so I'm not sure if they still serve this up to now.

This actually isn't a great loss, because the core menu may actually be more delicious. I've been here before and have ordered the Wagyu Cheese Steak (330 PhP) a couple of times. It's strips of marinated Wagyu beef tenderloin with sauteed onions and peppers and laid on a French baguette with provolone cheese and a special sauce. It's a favorite of many customers like myself, where the cheese steak is made even better with better quality cattle. Besides, anything stuffed with cheese on it it sure to be a tasty treat. I'd recommend this order for any first-timer who plans on eating here in their foodventure.

All in all, I'm okay with Malcolm's Place. I wouldn't go out of my way to drive here, but if ever I'm stuck in the area, this is one of the places I'd consider eating in. Although there's nothing remarkable about the service and some food options, the restaurant has a good vibe to it, and the old-timer dishes pretty much stay consistent.

Oh, and free wi-fi when you eat here! That can't be beat ;)

Good Burgers

Named Good Burgers because they're good for your health, these burgers never tasted so delicious and guiltless at the same time! From burgers ranging from 65 pesos to 120 pesos, they are very reasonable alternatives to the unhealthy McDonald's experience. (on average, a person will spend 150 PhP with drinks and fries)

You have several choices to choose from:

1) the bun ---> white or whole wheat bun. I often choose the whole wheat cos it doesn't taste any different from the white.

2) chicken pattie or veggie pattie ---> Wanting to be health conscious, I chose the veggie pattie. Talk about tasteless! I ordered it in two separate ocassions (a year apart) and remembered why I shouldn't get veggie pattie here to begin with. I'm telling you, stick to the CHICKEN PATTIE.....it is much better!

3) the size of the pattie ---> You choose between good, better and best, with best being the biggest pattie. I just get good and I'm already good (no pun intended!).

4) the toppings ---> I love the toppings in this place because they have the most creative combinations: Cheesy Mushroom, Salsa Mex, Garlic Barbecue, Silly Burger, Herb Delite, Persian Burger, BLT, Caesar's Burger, Bacon Mozza Melt, Margherita Burger and Three Cheese. I personally like the garlic barbecue, persian burger and the silly burger. Though the waiter will always say that the best sellers are the bacon mozza melt and the margherita, they're nothing compared to the other three.

Persian Burger
(Gia's most favorite topping)


Bacon Mozza Melt
(looks unappetizing, but just wanted to show how much mozzarella they put!)

my favorite --- Garlic Barbecue

5) drinks and add-ons ---> I guess since they're a small specialty burger joint, they don't offer much drinks except for the ones in cans and mineral water bottles. If you get take-out, and you're in greenhills or Pasig (near Libis) anyway, it wouldn't be hard to get lemonade somewhere else. Moreover, if you're into spicy food, you'd love the cayenne wedge fries as much as I do! It's not pretend spicy food....it is genuinely and deliciously hot! If you can't take the heat, there is always its regular counterpart. But don't be corny. Get cayenne.

KFC's Original Recipe Ultimate Sandwich

Pao and I have been stuffing ourselves silly with this yummy fast food staple: KFC's Original Recipe Ultimate Sandwich. Piqued by all the ad hype (yes, Bern, Mark and other advertising execs out there --- we're part of the stat that always fall for 'em!), Pao got his mom to drive through a sandwich for him....and the rest was love at first bite.

Imagine mixing a yummy chicken fillet with lettuce, cheese and a slice of round deli bacon.....slathered in barbecue sauce and stuffed in between a kaiser bun (a bun that folds inwards at the middle) --- it truly hits the spot when you want a fast chicken fix without messing your your fingers picking up whole chicken pieces.

For the price of 120+ PhP with drink and their thick-cut fries, it's a reasonably priced meal that Pao and I hope will be a permanent mainstay in their menu. Though several may have lukewarm reviews on it, we honestly believe that you'd be a FOOLtimate sandwich not to try it! Hopefully, they can have an option to put more cheese and bacon in the future, though....wishful thinking....

Way to go, SANGO!

5 out of 5 stars

It is not often that I do write-ups on fast food. I mean, fast food is fast food is fast food. But every once in a while, you hit a gold mine, and you’re able to please not only the foodies, but also the “fullers” --- my own invented term for people who’d pay the least to get full the most. Welcome to Sango.

Obviously, Sango is not your typical fast food, else I wouldn’t write about it. It’s a Japanese-themed store, and although it carries your staple burger and fries, it carries these foods to new dimensions. Admittedly, there aren’t a lot to choose from. There are 11 types of burgers, and though they may seem like a lot, there aren’t big differences from one to the other. For posterity’s sake, I’ll just name them all: Menchi Kats (85 PhP) [haven’t ordered this yet], Hamburger (50PhP) [too plain], Cheese Burger (65 PhP) [same], Master Burger (88 PhP) [the one with meat sauce], Chicken Burger (75/90 w/ cheese PhP), Fish Burger (75/90 w/cheese PhP), Chicken Teriyaki with Tar Tar Sauce (90 PhP) [sounds interesting, will try next time], Teriyaki Burger (80 PhP), Chicken Teriyaki Burger (80 PhP), Master Cheese Burger (103 PhP) [this is what I usually get], Tonkatsu Burger (85 PhP), Master Double Burger (128 PhP), Plain hotdog (65 PhP) and Master Double Cheese Burger (158 PhP) [this is what my guy friends usually get]. There are also two types of salads, fries, chili hotdog, hotdog on a stick, shakes and corn flake shakes.

As much as their menu seems limited, I’ve always believed that it’s better that they do that and perfect their limited specialties rather than have hundreds to choose from and be mediocre in all of it. In Sango, you can practically do no wrong in choosing anything. But of course, I have my favorites that I’m very enthusiastic to disclose.

The first is their Master Cheese Burger or for the hungrier ones, their Master Double Cheese Burger. It’s beef patty with carefully folded lettuce, a huge slab of tomato, a couple of really mild cheese slices, a tomato-based beef sauce (like Bolognese) and silky cream cheese sauce blended with generous portions of carmelized onions. I’m not really sure why the Japanese like tomato-based sauces with their hamburgers (i.e. the Hamburg dish in UCC Café), but it’s hella good! =) And different in a good way. Although I must warn you, it’s not “date” food because eating this can be real messy. But that’s the beauty in ordering their thickly sliced fries. You get to sop up all the wonderful sauce that spills out of these burgers.


To be different this time, I tried their Yakiniku Rice Burger. It tastes like sukiyaki with rice, although it's really supposed to be really popular with the Japanese. The meat was really good, cut thinly and tasted fresh, although the condiments were spare, (just lettuce) and the rice wasn't as firm as the rice burgers that are selling like hotcakes in Mcdonalds. I'd guess I'd rather much prefer the Master Cheese Burger, or will plan to trying the new Chicken Teriyaki with Tar Tar Sauce next time.

Next is their Goboh Salad (68 PhP). I know salads don’t really mix with burgers and fries, but for some odd reason, this one does. Nothing special with their fresh lettuce, tomatoes, shredded onions, sesame seeds and bits of corn. But the magic is in the sauce and the stringy vegetable “gobohs” on top. I don’t really know what it is, but the Net says that it means “burdock” which is this long, thin root vegetable that is indigenous to Japan. The watery salad sauce was similar to a salad dressing my friend bought in Sakura, and it’s so delicious that my friend even drank it up ;) For ten pesos less, you don’t have the “goboh”s, but then that just means that it’s not as fun to eat.

Finally, there are the Shakes and Corn Flakes Shakes. For the shakes, they have your typical vanilla, coffee, melon, orange and strawberry (35-45 PhP) plus an additional 15 PhP a la mode, but since you’re in Sango anyway, get the Green Tea flavor. It doesn’t taste as weird as it sounds. Get the shakes as your “side drink,” but if you want a dessert to cap off that master burger, go with the corn flake shakes, with flavors strawberry, blueberry and Maccha Azuki. (50-60 PhP). I’d highly recommend the Maccha Azuki (I tend to capitalize the words of the meals I like, don’t I?), a green tea shake with ice cream, corn flakes and beans. It’s scrumptious but not overwhelming at the same time, because it’s not too sweet. It actually reminds me of the maccha crepe that I order in UCC Café. One of my friends, Maita, loved the corn flakes concept so much that during her despedida, our dessert was an ice cream float with corn flakes (if only we could find that green tea ice cream easily....)

Moreover, the owner, Mr. Kobayashi, is really accommodating, and very sweet. He even made origami cats, plants and dinasours for us as we ordered our food. The kitchen is open air, divided in the side by a transparent plastic drapes and at front by a glass wall. It's all very Japanese, which I associate with sterility, meticulousness and quirkiness.

So that’s about all the food tips and descriptions you need to know about Sango, besides the fact that you feel as if you’ve been transported to Japan. An air humidifier/purifier puffs away in one corner, making the place feel very sterile. On the same side is a plasma TV showing the latest Jap noontime show or telenovela. On the other side is a whole cabinet full of reading material ---- in Japanese, no less. And people around you are all either Japanese businessmen or funky teenagers who look exactly like anime cartoons. This place is worth a try, if not a million times instead of your typical Mcdonald’s, Jollibee or Hot Shots. And with that, I end as I begin: Way to go, Sango!

OMAKASE

4 out of 5 stars

Japanese with a twist

I learned about this through my best friend foodie-in-crime Bernice, who will not give up her search for the perfect foie gras and/or peking duck *wink, wink.* Omakase is a quaint restaurant tucked in the same corner as Pizza Hut right before entering Eastwood. This is a must-go for adventurous eaters! Their menu includes the typical tempura or California maki, but I suggest you toss these down the drain and go for their specialty fusion dishes. For sushi, I almost always order the “American Dream,” though I’ve uselessly tried convincing myself to order other appetizers. It’s deep-fried sushi with kani, salmon and cream cheese; trust me, you won’t regret ordering this bite of heaven! Another good bet is their “Jurrassic,” which is an inside out maki of ebi tempura, kani, ebiko, and salmon skin. Being bold as they are, their dips are not just your plain soy sauce, but kabayaki (viscous dark brown Japanese sauce, which accompanies other vianda like gindara or eel) with Japanese mayo and wasabi for that kick. If you’re into raw food (which I am unfortunately not), my friends have also raved about their spicy tuna salad.

For viands, I suggest the “Seafood Dumpling” – all kinds of seafood, wrapped in nori then deep-fried in tempura batter, slathered in the same kabayaki-mayo sauce. It almost tastes like their specialty maki since they use the same dip, but the crunch and cooked seafood pairs excellently with plain Japanese rice. Their chicken teppanyaki is also excellent --- and this is probably the few “normal” Japanese dishes that one should order, being that their ebi tempura etc. were below average --- as well as the “tofu steak,” with big chunks of them wrapped in beef.

For dessert, one should try their “tempura ice cream” at least once, even for the sheer thrill of eating something for the first time. Their cold tea beverages are quenchingly yummy, too!
