A few weeks back, my college friends and I pushed to meet
for dinner on a week night since our schedules are all packed with meet
ups and travels
in the next weeks to come. And since most of them are working in Ortigas, L and
I had to brave the traffic going north. And we survived to have dinner at…
It has been quite a while
since I last visited Gino’s Brick Oven
Pizza. I think it was over 3 years and it was with my favorite Takaw Trio
(T3) friends. Anyway, this time around, we tried Mushroom Pizza
(PHP375), Prosciutto Pizza
(PHP445), Carbonara
(PHP220), Pesto Pasta (PHP225), Nutella Soup (PHP195) and Crack Pie (PHP55, slice).
We also
ordered a pitcher of Calamansi juice
(PHP150) to help us digest the food we were about to consume. (And it was a bit too sweet.)
M was amused with how the Pesto
Pasta
was served as it was all bundled up. It reminded us of semi cooked instant
noodles. The texture itself was also a bit hard and it had a slight sweet taste
which could have been from the cream.
The pesto
itself wasn’t very oily which was great but I wish that it had a stronger pesto
flavor over cream.
