My preferences seem to be different from my colleagues. Whenever we vote
on something, I usually end up choosing the option NO ONE votes for. Just like
when we were deciding where to have our celebratory dinner, I chose Kettle
or Brotzeit;
both chosen by nada. Curious which one won? Green Pastures.
Hello, Green
Pastures!
Okay, I have a love-hate relationship
with this one. I recall that I ordered the wrong dishes on my first visit and I
had yummy pasta but a weird drink on my second visit. This time around though,
my boss, M, ordered for the team and got Ricotta
(PHP225), Stracciatella (PHP325) and
Autumn Surprise (PHP430, small | PHP595,
large) for appetizer; Scampi-Chorizo
(PHP500, solo | PHP700, sharing), 80/20
Burger (PHP550), Roasted Organic
Chicken (PHP650) and Tap-Caulisi-Log
(PHP600) as our mains.
First served was the bowl of salad.
I truly enjoyed the mix of greens,
nuts and fruits. There were a lot of flavors and textures going on making it
very interesting. My favorite was the candied walnuts.
Ricotta and stracciatella were served
next.
Almost everyone liked the stracciatella
cheese
more but I prefer ricotta cheese as it had a tangier flavor. The scracciatella
needed a bit of salt for taste while ricotta tastes even better with the onion
jam. Then again, the arugula
made scracciatella delightful.
