As much as I love eating good food, I hesitate dining in super fancy
places especially when I have to splurge…
a lot. But I get to score great deals from sites like Deal Grocer and Cash
Cash Pinoy at times. A few months back, I did with a 47% off deal for a
romantic dinner for two in Ninyo. I
bought it in an instant as I wanted to go somewhere romantic with R.
Hello, Ninyo Fusion Cuisine and Wine Lounge!
It was a rainy day when we decided to
visit Ninyo. I had a private gazebo reserved (for an extra romantic vibe) and I
got worried that the rain will ruin our dinner but I was surprised with the
fantastic service of the staff. The servers approached us with umbrellas and
made sure that we are dry and comfortable.
The set-up was perfect. There were
rose petals everywhere.
First served were a few slices of
warm bread and butter and it sure hit the spot. The bread was soft and
delicious! Too bad I was too hungry to take a photo of it.
Next served were the Wasabi Fried Oyster
Tempura
and it was good. Wait, scratch that. It was awesome! R loved it too. The
starter sure did set the bar high. I loved the contrast of the soft oysters and
the crunchy tempura
batter. The balsamic citrus mayo dressing with red lumpfish caviar made it even
more interesting.
The Nori Pumpkin
Soup was pretty good too. I loved the creamy texture and the sweet yet
salty taste.
It was difficult to eat the Yuzu Sorbet.
R and I decided to eat it straight from the ceramic spoon/plate. It was very
refreshing though.
