It has been 3 months
since my office moved to Fort
and till now I hardly explored
the area (except the establishments
in front
of our building). For one, I want to go home before it gets dark. Second, it’s
expensive to explore here! But I do treat myself a good
meal on certain days when I feel I deserve it. And a few weeks back, I
invited E to join me for dinner and we went to…
Village Tavern.
I was first to arrive
and the server led me to a corner table (near the al fresco part of the
restaurant) and I politely asked her to move me to another table as I noticed
that the area had a lot of mosquitoes. I refuse to be the mosquitoes’ dinner.
She then led me to the table near the bar and it was a lot better. Soon, E
arrived.
Since we got there
before 7PM, we managed to score some Happy
Hour drinks. I ordered Red Sangria (PHP95 before
7PM, PHP180 regular price) while E went for Long Island Iced Tea (PHP95
before 7PM, PHP155 regular price). We also ordered Roasted Bone Marrow (PHP365)
and Black Pizza (PHP550).
The Roasted Bone
Marrow was sinful and quite weird too. We put a bit of bone marrow goodness
on the sourdough and sprinkled a bit of salt and added the greens that went
with the dish.
It tasted okay but quite far from the bone
marrow dish I had from Cue.
The Black
Pizza
arrived next and it was a pretty pie.
The vibrant colors of the toppings had a nice contrast with the dark dough.
The taste was just as good. Village Tavern’s signature black pizza
dough
topped with ground beef, parmesan,
gruyere, mozzarella,
pepperoni,
mushrooms, bell pepper and onions was wonderful. It wasn’t too salty or
overpowering.
It was one filling
dinner. I’ll definitely be back and try Village Tavern’s salmon
dish next time.
Village Tavern is
located at 2nd Floor Bonifacio High Street Central, 7th Avenue, Taguig. For reservations, please call
621 3245.
The pizza looks filling already!
