Dinner at Conti's Restaurant

Iv'e known Conti's few years back before it was known for it's Mango Bravo cake (which is a must try dessert ice cream cake in the metro) but for this night, my cousins and my parents decided to try to dine again at this resto. 

As usual, during holiday (especially Christmas season) restaurants and malls are always full.

We waited for our table which by the way, on the waiting list we are no. 6 meaning more time to look around. I love the landscape and the design of serendra and high street, very pleasant and full of lights very perky and nice. 

Lumpiang Ubod: This fresh vegetable dish is a like a spring roll but not cooked, it is topped with nuts and sweet sauce. This is good for appetizer and for vegetarian people. The Ubod (a local vegetable) is quite fresh and the wrapper is very soft and thin. Very easy to eat and very light.

Macaroni Salad: I love the way they cooked the macaroni! it's not soft, and not hard it was cooked Al Dente. I just don't like that the salad had too many dressing which i find it "Nakaka Umay" 

Garlic Rice

Grilled Liempo (Pork): Sweet, Tender, Savory, and most of all It's so soft and very tasty!

Kare Kare: This dish is just ok nothing really great as compared to other restaurants like Kanin Club. But at least it's nice and quite tasty. But I was a little disappointed or maybe I just expecting too much from this restaurant. 

Chicken Pastel: This was good, The chicken meat was soft, the sausages, and vegetables were cooked right on time. Not so soft, and not so hard. The sauce was the winning piece! very flavorful and savory.

Leche Flan: Not too sweet, but it's darn good! it's the most creamiest leche flan I've tasted. winner.

Brownies, and Butterscotch

If your looking for absolute good and tasty Filipino Food, go to 1521, Cafe Juanita, or Kanin Club so you may not be disappointed. But Conti's deliver quite good foods but not that quality you are expecting which is kind of a let down because of the reputation it had earned. 

But Conti's is really good for it's desserts and bakery products. You must try their desserts especially the Mango Bravo, a true heaven.
