Ordering also was pretty convenient since we just ordered from their iPad with their mobile application installed in it. It was like ordering online, but better and we get to see the total bill right away. They have already launched their mobile applications downloadable from the Google Play store and the Apple App store that is entirely free. This is so customers can just eat upon arriving and there will no longer be conflicts on payments. We dined here for lunch and we had an exquisite food experience. For drinks, we had their Calamansi Vanilla and Cinnamon Iced Tea. They served a complimentary appetizer which was garlic bread with three kinds of dips: garlic puree, balsamic caramel, and smoked fish tapenade. Meanwhile, for our food, we had fresh mozzarella and grilled sweet bell pepper salad with toasted citrus dressing and roasted rib eye a la "blanquette" with sauteed parsley rice. All those were solo servings since it was already good enough for the two of us. For desserts, we had their trio of homemade ice cream consisting of gingerbread ice cream, rose ice cream and salted caramel ice cream. The other dessert we got to try was madeleines that are Jasmine tea with Mango, Earl Grey and Four Berries. This is absolutely has become one of my favorite restaurants.

You have to have a lot of trust in your driver when you visit the PH because they can fit their vehicles into some crazy small spaces lol the restaurant is located in a rural area which is what made the little driving adventure all the more fascinating because you have no idea what's around you or where you are anymore but once you arrive it's like you've been transported to a completely different place than the area you just drove through. As soon as we arrived we were led to this beautiful outdoor area to wait on our table. It had a full bar and restrooms but I want to say the outdoor waiting area was my favorite part of the restaurant it was stunning and a perfect place for drinks before dinner. There is a pretty strict dress code so do your research before hand so you have no issues upon arrival. The food is on the pricier side but that's to be expected given the ambiance and the quality of everything they serve. The staff and their service was impeccable. From the moment we parked and walked to the outdoor area we were waited on and served. The staff is very attentive and quick to cater to your every need. We ordered so much I can't remember the name of every dish but everything we ordered exceeded our expectations. Would definitely recommend Antonio's for special occasions.

Despite the name of the place, they are not exclusively serving French food. They have pasta, steaks, and seafood. If anything, Chateau 1771 is a modern European restaurant serving favorite French, Italian, and Swiss food. When I first visited the place years ago, I was actually anxious about that moment when the waiter would hand me the check. European dining in the Philippines has always been equated with expensive fine-dining. But to my astonishment, the price was actually reasonable. I mean, it's not affordable and one would be crazy or filthy rich to eat in this kind of place every day. But for special occasions, I would recommend this place. My most recent visit was during my wife's birthday. It was a table for two and we had a late lunch. After a few moments of browsing through the menu, she asked for Croquette Salad, while I went for Butter-baked Oysters. For main, she had Vanilla Brick Spring Chicken, or grilled chicken served with vanilla bean dots. I ordered the Potence, the house specialty. It's basically steak where the meat is served hanging from a potence, or metal frame, and then set alight (by the waiter) with brandy. Their Pomelo Fruit Juice is a must try. I would recommend having a reservation when dining at Chateau 1771. While the place typically fills up during dinner, I find it perfect for a late afternoon hangout. The ambience can truly transport you somewhere in Europe.

Oh, their flambeed coffees are amazing. Try their Irish coffee. You'll want more. For dessert, it doesn't matter whether you order a Creme Brulee or a Coffee Bean Sansrival. All of their desserts are excellent.

That was my life then and since I didn't know anything else nor had anything to compare it to, I didn't think I had it any less. The finer things in life were beyond me, one day though my old boss decided to bring my colleagues and I to La Veranda for drinks and merienda. Imagine my happiness when I was faced with items on a menu I knew nothing about. Tuna tartare with mango and cilantro, homemade foie gras (only learned to pronounce it correctly that day), watermelon gazpacho and glasses of wine- it was heavenly; so heavenly that I went to bed that day thinking about my next meal, one that would be so good it would cost a quarter of my salary.

Spirals bar is always interesting and a good pick but I never like to sit inside. The Veranda offers premium seats to a lovely view of the bay. Service is what you would expect from a world-class hotel. The checkered tiles, beautiful central bar, and well-lit atmosphere makes you happy to be there in that very moment. Maybe you would be inclined to sit a little longer and be inspired to read a book... or even write some poetry? Find a nice corner by the window (fingers crossed you're not sitting beside a rowdy family), and you're off to a blissful meal or even a coffee or a drink. A great place not only for brunch but to have a relaxed meeting or a casual date. Prices are expensive but worth every penny for the view.

It seemed their menu was for fine-dining yet the vibe was casual and classy. FOOD Pan Seared Salmon with Calamansi and Brown Butter with Steam Rice was really lovely and the salmon was packed with flavor. Asparagus was a great partner, being fresh and crunchy. Chicken A La Chasseur with Mashed Potatoes had really tender meat and finely mashed potatoes. SERVICE They provided an instructional aide for their Zomato Gold policy, which saved time for everyone. As soon as we were done with each dish, they were pulled out pretty quickly. Apparently, you must order something or melt in your seat not ordering while having your conversations. Fortunately, we were already full and billed out. Wait time was fair for just about everything.

(Currently drooling recalling smoked salmon on eggs) I love partnering these breakfast dishes with a side dish of bacon, and Cafe France's coffee which is pretty good! Mmmmm.

A former boss of mine told me that he really enjoyed the food there, and I remembered that 3 years later, when I was deciding where to take Grace on that all-important occasion. I made a reservation about 2 months in advance, just to be sure. I specified that it was going to be a proposal, so I made sure that they got me a booth instead of a table in the middle of the restaurant. I told them that at some point, I'd be asking a member of the staff to take pictures and videos, which they willingly agreed to. The day itself came, a few days before Grace's birthday so she would think it was just a birthday dinner. The staff were all smiles when we entered; they all knew, and they were excited for us. Our 7-course meal started, and it was all perfect. Seeing Grace's face light up with every bite she took just made me more excited for what was to come at the end of the meal: the moment I was gonna ask her to be my wife.

I assured her that just because they're students doesn't mean that they don't know what they're doing. I was right! We started off our date with a French staple, escargot. The snails were swimming in butter and I envied them in that instance. We saluted their valiant sacrifice as we gobbled them up one by one. For the main course, she had steak and I had the sea bass with risotto. For my dish, the serving could have been bigger but it was as delicious as it can get. All in all, dining in Aubergine was a delight and something we'll definitely do again in the future.
