Mamou, Serendra Bonifacio Global City, Taguig

Finally got to try about the much raved steak of Mamou.

For starters, we ordered salad.  This is the Healdsbur's Harvest - greens in season, sweet tomatoes, glazed pecans, dried cranberries, cranberry stilton cheese, berry vinaigrette.  I think the glazed pecan and cranberries are what made this salad so yummy.  I just wish the server is bigger for it's price of P335.00.

We also ordered Lorenzo's Truffle Cream pasta.  It's spaghettini, truffle flavored cream, grana padano cheese, served al dente.  Truffle is very popular now.  I first tried pasta in truffle sauce in Italianni's and didn't liked it because the smell was strong.  But I liked this truffle pasta from Mamou.  Price of this pasta is P395.00.

Lastly, the famous steak.  We ordered the Angus Ribeye USDA Prime Grade Steak - Single serving (approximately 400gms) for P1950.00.  We also ordered 1 cup of brown rice, I think. 

What else can I say, it's really delicious.  But of course, it comes with a price :) We paid P3000.00 plus since we also ordered drinks.  Still happy that I got to taste these delicious food. :)

Blake's Wings and Steaks, San Roque, Marikina

Blake's Wings and Steaks can be found along Gil Fernando, San Roque Marikina.  It's a small 2 story building with limited parking available.  The first floor is just a receiving area while the second floor is the dining area with around 10 tables.

Before going, I checked some reviews on the net and found that some of the positive and negative feedbacks are true.  I read that it's usually full and waiting time is long.  Fortunately, when we arrived we got a table right away.  I also read that the place feels hot despite the aircon.  This is true based on our experience specially it was lunch time then.  More feedback as I go through the pictures of food we ordered. =)

Kani Mango Salad - P195 

We were satisfied with this salad.  Can't say much but "yummy!".

 

1/2 kg Pork Ribs - P350.00

Tasty and tender.  Happy with this one too.  Of course, most of us ordered rice though we already have pasta.  I didn't order rice 'coz I know I'm more on the pasta but I ended up getting half rice from my friend because of this hehe.

1/2 kg BBQ Original Wicked Wings with Bleu Cheese and Honey Mustard dips - P195.00

Expectations are high since this is supposed to be their specialty.  Good thing, it did not disappoint. =)

 

Penne Garlic Pesto with Grilled Chicken Breast - P225.00

Sadly, when I scooped a serving, I found a strand of hair in the dish =(.  We informed the waiters and they replaced it with a new set.  I can't remember though if they have apologized.  Anyways, it tasted just ok.  Maybe it was just ok because of the unfortunate incident.

Spaghetti with Dried Tuyo in Olive Oil - P225.00

We didn't originally ordered this but was just a follow up after the Penne Pasta incident.  I've tasted Tuyo pasta in other resto but this one I didn't like.  Salty is all I can taste from the dish.  There was nothing to balance it.  We didn't finish it and ended taking out the left over.  Wish we didn't order this as additional.
