TGIF

My family enjoyed a staycation at Crowne Plaza (located beside Robinson's Galleria).

Usually, my family eats at Mr. Choi whenever we are at Robinson's Galleria. We love their baked rice (seafood/white sauce baked rice, whatever the name is)... :) 

Just to be out of the usual thing, we ate at TGI Friday's.

French Onion Soup - P195

I don't like French Onion Soup, but because of pressure (more like of a force)... I tried one sip of this soup. Viola, I loved it (especially the mozzarella cheese)! I don't understand why I never tried to taste this soup before... :| 

My mind says that this soup should taste like onions; but it's actually sweet, and its taste gets better as you sip more.

Mushroom Chicken and Mushroom - P565

New York Strip Steak - P1575 (8oz)

Kulinarya

Whenever we go to Rockwell, we make sure that we eat at this restaurant--Kulinarya!

The sound of its name suggests Filipino food, right? But, no, they don't offer Filipino food (as far as what I know). They offer steaks and pizzas!

Cream of Squash-Php 95

I forgot the name of this dish; but it is worth remembering. Just look for this under the steak category; it's considered as one of their specialties. Look for the steak which is served with potato gratin and melted butter on top. We just ordered one serving and asked it to be divided into two. 

Bacon Mushroom Burger-Php 280

House of Wagyu

We were craving for steak; and someone advised us to try House of Wagyu at Podium. He told us that there are steaks at House of Wagyu worth P1000+ only. 

Unfortunately, their P1000+ steaks were not available during that time; only the expensive ones were available, worth P3000+ and above. Again, knowing us, we went for the most affordable one, which was the Tenderloin Grade 6 (good for 2).

The steak comes with the soup of the day, 2 servings. Also, they have complimentary bread + (very cute) butter--yehey for me since I love to eat bread!




Here's a photo of the restaurant's ambiance:

Soup of the Day: Tomato Soup or Pumpkin Soup, I forgot....

 Tenderloin Grade 6

The steak was prefect (Am I in Heaven?)! You can have your steak served on a stone grill (recommended); but we opt to have it on a hot plate. 


*Notes:

1. You can ask for gravy; but they will tell you they recommend not to eat their steaks with gravy. And, they're telling the truth. We insisted for gravy (just to try it); but the steak was already perfect without the gravy! With or without gravy? I prefer WITHOUT.

2. Look into their menu before going to their restaurant. You really have to be prepared with your budget, and I'm not exaggerating.

3. It's good to have your steaks serve on a stone grill (or at least let your steak sit on a stone grill before biting into it) to keep it warm.
4. If you're already in tight budget, don't order drinks (just ask for their house water).
