Mango Tree Bistro, Trinoma Ω

We were in Trinoma on October 13, 2013.

 

Waiting area.

What we had:

Phad Thai Goong P420

Meh.

Meat mumsy can chew. 

Gaeng Ped Gai - Red curry P420

I was disappointed with this the most.

marinated and grilled chicken skewers with 2 sauces

Khao Kluk Kapi P165

Fried rice, shrimp paste (bagoong), sunny side up egg, 

sweet pork, green mango

Nav's Thai food wasn't bad, I've had worse.

Red Garlic Bistro Cafe, Katipunan branch now in Taguig

Above photo taken from Red Garlic's Facebook page.

 

We had our family dinner at Red Garlic, Katipunan branch, last March 31, 2013.

When we got there, there was a buffet available.

 

Very tempting.

Mmmm..

But the dishes we wanted to order were not part of the buffet 

so we ordered ala carte.

Nice touch with their almost camouflage print on the papermat.

 First up.

 Roasted Pumpkin Soup with Tyrolian Bacon P225

Mumsy had meat that should be easy to chew.

**Barcelona (Lengua Con Setas) P420

Tender slices of ox tongue with creamy white sauce

See her patiently waiting while grasping her fork 
as I finish taking a photo of her food?
Hihi.

Diya had this.

 Cajun Style Baby Back Ribs P455

Fall-off-the-bones glazed with Smoked Tangy Apple Barbecue Sauce 

and seved with Garlic-Parsley rice

I, of course, had this.

 Baked Norwegian Salmon Duo P430

North Atlantic salmon fillet basted with 2 special flavors 

Basil - Pistachio and Smoked Jabanero Cream 

served with Mango Salsa and Garlic Parsley rice

Note to self: You like RAW salmon. Not cooked. Nor baked. Raw.

And I just had water in this slanted glass.

Ahya's order was this 

only because all his other orders were not available that night.

ღ **Thai Barbecue Sampler P365

I liked this the best!

It was a fortunate accident. Ü

Then we got this for free!

Santiago Chili Poppers (valued at P255)

Because mumsy used her Citibank card.

 For a minimum bill of P1000, get a free Santiagao Chili Poppers.

The best things in life are freeeee!

Basil, White Plains

My brothers and I had dinner at Basil on March 10, 2013.

This was our second time to visit,

because we did not make reservations the first time,

and there were no seats available due to all the reservations.

This time, the place was still full but I made reservations.

 View from comfort room door.

The place was lit cozy dark so the photos may appear grainy.

Appetizer.

 Fresh Spring Roll P220

 Prawns wrapped in Noodles P395

I expected a lot from this dish. Meh.

 Grilled Pork Ribs with Honey P235
This was good. I like honey. 

ღ Thai Style fried noodles P325

I like pad thai noodles so I have tasted a number of them.

This is one of the Very good ones!
