Since Bistro Filipino had been some sort of an Urban Legend to us, we had a slight difficulty looking for it. We knew it was at The Fort but which part? I always thought it was somewhere between 32nd and 5th streets, but apparently it's not there.
So after ER and Trinka harassed me to "ask" this person off the street, we eventually found it. But by the time we found it, we were really starving. Come to think of it, it was already past 8 and we were still cruising along the streets of the Fort with no idea in mind in ER's brand new RAV 4. But it was worth the wait, I have to say.
Service was fantastic. We were attended to soon we arrived. We have been apprised like 4x that our tables were being set already and if we didn't mind waiting. So while ER and Trinka smoked, we were just outside trying to decide which entree to order. We ordered and waited...
Then came a basketful of hot pandesal. As soon as we dipped our hands onto the basket, we knew that was it. Piping hot pandesal with butter did it for me. I even had seconds!
Then came our food. It was absolutely sumptuous. I got to try ER's crispy and yet so smooth and easy foie gras. As I ate it, it was slowly melting away in my tongue. And trinka's pork binagoongan was fantastic too! But my kare-kare was the absolute best!
Posting photos here. You drop by soon. It will be worth visiting, i am telling you.
