Two Sundays ago, my family and I were back at our favorite quaint cafe in Quezon City called Cafe Breton. This time we tried other items on the menu such as Chicken, Orange and Almond salad and Breton Mozzarella Burger. The crepes were so hard to resist so we chose two from our list of favorites- Adam & Eve and Hawaii 5-O.

 Chicken, Orange and Almonds PhP 165

Mixed greens with arugula leaves and sauteed chicken slices, tossed with fresh orange slices and almonds

This order of Chicken, Orange and Almonds salad has a generous serving of almond which my mom truly loves so she was very happy ; ) The mixed greens were all fresh, not a wilted one in sight.

We requested for two kinds of dressings- Thousand Island and Vinaigrette. The latter won hands down. You can also opt for Honey Mustard.

Other salads available are Mini Side Salad (PhP 55) and Salad Bretonne (PhP 175)- salad greens with arugula leaves mixed with shrimps and crabs. It will definitely be next on my list!

These past few weeks, I have been sickly therefore I was not in the mood to go even to the nearest mall, Robinsons Magnolia ; (

To cheer me up, my family and I went to a happy place, Cafe Breton. For two consecutive Sundays, we were there in the afternoon having our favorite crepe and coffee!

Original Sin PhP 260

During our first visit, I ordered Original Sin - stewed apples, caramel ice cream, caramel syrup, walnuts and whipped cream. Yes, it's truly a sinful dessert!

On our second visit, I saw Normandie under Dessert Crepes. It is Original Sin minus walnuts, it cost PhP 232 only. Other variety of stewed apple crepes are Adam & Eve (PhP 148), Eden (PhP155) and Lost Paradise (PhP185).

Adam & Eve - stewed apples with cinnamon & vanilla ice cream
Eden - stewed apples with cinnamon & fresh cream, topped with whipped cream
Lost Paradise - stewed apples with cinnamon, vanilla ice cream, raisins  marinated in rum

H Cuisine Home of the Most Awesome Angus Beef Belly!

My visit: September 9, 2011

H Cuisine by Chef Hanna Herrera

64 Scout Rallos cor. Tomas Morato St.,

Quezon City

It was my brother who can't stop raving about H Cuisine. Coming from a restaurant owner himself, I thought this restaurant must be offering something really good. I was with my family when I first tried this restaurant. I know I am bound to come back.

H Cuisine's Most Awesome Angus Beef Belly (single with rice) PhP288

I have been back twice since he first texted DH and I. My brother was raving about how tender the angus beef belly and I could not agree more! The second time, I brought two of my closest friends in college with me.

Along with the Angus beef belly, there were string beans, corn and carrots on one side and baby potatoes on the other neatly placed on a white plate elevated on top of a rack with a lit tea light candle in the bottom to keep the dish warm. Personally, I don't think that it does the job but it is more for presentation.

If you are in a group of 2 to 3 pax, order the To Share portion for only PhP428 without rice.
