met up to our expectations! having dine at esquina (sg) and 22 ships (hkg), i was looking forward to trying his new establishment on our trip to cebu.
service was immaculate from the cocktail bar to the main dining area. we chose to sit at the kitchen counter as always to view the action.
food - for 2 pax, we ordered 6 plates and 2 desserts, which was just right. complimentary seaweed crackers a nice touch as we wait for our 1st serving. pan con tomate was refreshing on the palate, a great match to the jamon and manchego croquettes. salt baked beetroot was unique but the goat cheese was a little too overwhelming for me and overshadowed the beetroot. i enjoyed the heirloom tomato salad, goes well with most mains. definitely recommend the old fashionporkterrine. we also had the angus ribeye, nothing too special so for my next visit i would try theporkbelly or roast chicken.
dessert - baked 60% chocolate moelleux was superb. not too sweet and great cocoa taste. we also had the basil sorbet and yogurt mouse, again another good pairing of desserts.
will i go back again? most definitely yes.
