Getting to know fellow foodies have perks. I would have not
heard of Adaäm and Yves Organic
Bistro if it wasn’t for K. And after some stalking, I discovered that this is
one of the newest
restaurants in BGC. The location alone made me interested since it’s
relatively near where I work so… I decided to pester one of my friends and dine
there ASAP.
Hello, Adaäm and Yves Organic
Bistro!
The place, where the
entrance is along 6th Avenue, looks bare from the outside. There are
about 8 tables inside with high ceiling making it look very spacious. The place
is dimly lit hence it made me think right away how I’ll manage taking photos
especially since I didn’t bring my other phone as additional light (for
dramatic purposes).
I walked all the way from SM
Aura to get here and I was hungry since an hour ago so I was already in my
hangry state when I sat down.
Still in its soft
opening, the server who assisted us had no idea what are being offered. He
did suggest the “bestsellers” which happen to be the two most expensive dishes
in the menu. When I asked him what makes it different, he just read the menu to
me which, admittedly, annoyed me and made me snap.
Before losing it, I ordered Tuna Turner (PHP285) and Pink Floyd (PHP230) while J went with Noli Me Tangere (PHP495). [Side note:
After telling the server my order, I think he spaced out and asked for my order
again. He sure tested my patience.]
Service was quick though and
in less than 10 minutes, Tuna
Turner was served. And it was difficult to shoot it!
When Adaäm and Yves said it
was a sashimi
grade tuna
loin, they were not kidding. It sure was fresh
and delightful!
The tangy taste from the lemon juice and slight oiliness from the olive
oil made it a great appetizer to start the meal.
The taro chips reminded me of the blue potato chips I usually get from flights.
