BRUNCH AROUND THE METRO

Brunch is a meal that I soooo love! Here are some places that I've tried lately and some places that have also become my favorite.
The one that I tried recently is Wildflour. It's in the Fort area , Ground floor at the Net Lima Bldg, 4th Ave. corner 26th St.
That morning when I went, we ordered Waffles with Banana and Walnuts with Maple Syrup. It was really yummy! I think it would've been better if they offered aside of bacon or breakfast sausage.

 The other dish that we ordered was the Croque Madame. It's probably one of the more popular dishes that people order there.  It's a toasted ham and cheese sandwich with bechamel sauce and topped with an egg...fried egg. It's very rich but it's worth all the calories.  
 On another occasion, we also ate at Wildflour in the evening, here are the dishes that we ordered from the menu...and you can also order them for brunch...


Grilled Cheese Sandwich

Freshly toasted bread with butter is served while you wait for your order...

This is what I ordered...chicken meatball sandwich. I didn't particularly like it. Maybe it was just me. My other friends said it was ok.

My bestfriend Marivic ordered this....their beef burger. It was good! I don't really eat burgers but this one was good!

The burger came with the fries.


Here's another place where that I like going to for dimsum... Summer Palace at Edsa Shangri-la Hotel. Here are some of the items that we order when we're there....
Siomai
                                 BBQ Pork Buns                                                      Shrimp and Mango Roll    
Taro Puff

Beancurd Roll with Shrimps
There's also another dish that I really like in Summer Palace and that's the stir fried Ho Fun with XO Sauce. Ironic that I can't seem to find a photo of it so you better take my word for it. If you're not happy with it, blame the chef that made it hahaha.  It should generally come out good!

Here's another place where we go for Brunch... Mammou. The Eggs Benedict was ok but I didn't particularly like the bread.

This is what I enjoyed...their French Toast with breakfast sausage. The serving was huge and I guess 2-3 can share!

Another place that I tried is Cafe 1771 along San Miguel Ave at El Pueblo.  I ordered the Eggs Benedict. It was ok but it wasn't my type. I expected an english muffin instead of a pandesal for the bread. Overall though, it will do.

Here's something interesting on the menu...Huevos Rancheros... it was ok but I think it could be better. My friend finished it though.

I think this is still my favorite place for Brunch... Apartment 1B... Here are some dishes that I also like to order there.... Pasta Bolognaise.

Eggs Benedict...probably one of the best in Manila and worth the calories! I crave for it occasionally and I'm so happy that they already have a branch at Rockwell.
There are other places that I go to for some Filipino menu too...when I'm in the mood to eat rice, I go to Mary Grace. I like ordering their Longanisa with garlic rice. I also like the Tapa of Dome, and if you want to try an assortment of Longanisa and sausages, you may try Zoricho along Silver City near Tiedesitas. That's worth trying also.
When I find new interesting places, I'll make sure to let you know....'Til next time...
