Uncle Cheffy's !

One of our office managers treated us for lunch and everybody clamored for Uncle Cheffy's.  I have never tried it and I was not expecting anything great.  I did expect that it would be expensive.

Hhmm, I was wrong.  This place is full of surprises.  Our order came one after the other only after about 15 min and I loved everything I tasted ! 

The Roasted Chicken was especially good - which was served with rice already. 

The pizza was very good.  It was served with alfalfa sprouts and salsa. The way to eat is put some salsa and sprouts on the pizza and roll away !  This was called the Uncle Cheffy favorite.

We also ordered the Uncle Cheffy salad.  Now this was new to me. It had crispy pork belly ! I had more of the belly than the salad.  It was so good.

We also had the Barbecued Tuna Belly and the Tiuey Noodle.

I will defintely go back !

Location :
Uncle Cheffy
Nuvali, Sta Rosa Laguna (they also have other branches in Taguig, Eastwood, Lipa among others)

Budget :
There were five of us and the charge was about over Php2000.

Next:
I was also told that the ribs are good too.  So next time, will try that

Would you look at that !

Look at those pork belly!

Enjoy !

Chili's !

Finally, my friends and I went  for some night out fun.  My friend who had migrated to New Zealand visited and this is our welcome back dinner.  But hey,  she is always here twice a year so we'll have many more welcome back fun ! 

We wanted to go out for some cocktails and some good food.  So we headed for Chili's in the south.  Being a Saturday night, we expected the place to be full packed.. and it was ! but It didn't take long for us to get seated.  Our waiter Jed made our evening  really comfortable and he waited on us really well. 

For the longest time, I had wanted to try the Bottomless Tostada Chips and now was the opportunity.  Thin crisp chips served with home-made salsa.  To go with that we ordered for the cheese dip on skillet. Believe me the cheese dip was enough and so yummy !

We also had the Wings over Buffalo and the Grilld Barbecue Chicken salad.  This was specially good.  I just wish it was also bottomless ")  The only thing missing ? Rice.




Everybody had gotten one piece each before I could even take a picture



Of course, the night wouldn't be complete without the cocktails and my friends couldn't resist getting the bottomless Margarita.  I had the Mai Tai and I loved it.

The bottomless Margarita !



The bar area.  Most of the guests that night are either family groups or barkadas

Location :
Chili's  (newly opened)

Tip :
If you're going to order the bottomless Margarita, make sure to specify if you want the frozen or the classic.

Enjoy !

Purple Oven at Sta Rosa !

Another Korean friend was visiting this week and requested to have lunch at Seafood Island in Solenad 2.  After lunch, we just had to get some dessert so I suggested to go to the new Purple Oven at Sta Rosa.  What we saw did not disappoint us. 

My Korean friend gave a whole blueberry cheesecake to our colleague who is getting married this September.  I got the 16 pc revel bar and my other friend got the choco banana cake and lemon squares.

Everything looked delicous.  I would really love to try all of it.  Definitely will come back to do so !

Location :
Purple Oven, Solenad 2
Tagaytay road, Sta Rosa Laguna (near Nuvali)

Doesn't the front entrance look different and inviting ?  Makes you wonder what's inside.  I did.

These are the revel bars that I ordered.  All courtesy of my Korean friend !

An array of fresh breads : turnovers, cheese breads and doughnuts!

The dome cake looked very rich and moist.  Have yet to try it..

My friends enjoying the lunch and dessert treat !

Enjoy !
