“Let’s it at recipes.” Huh? My eyebrows went up when I heard, when I asked where we’ll have lunch, that we’re going to eat at recipes. It was Recipes, not the common noun with a small “r”, but a proper noun with a big “R”. It’s the name of the restaurant — Recipes, by Cafe Metro. I haven’t heard any review from this restaurant and, from the the name alone, I purposely set the bar of my taste bud to low. I didn’t want to be disappointed, just in case. But I was mistaken.

Fish & Co. (Trinoma)
It was a day of firsts. On the first day of 2008, we ate in one of Trinoma‘s cluster of restaurants located in what I’d like to call “The Garden”, at the 6th floor (just look for the Cinemas, then you’ll easily spot “The Garden”). It was the first time we, as a family, ate at Fish and Co. It recently opened in December and while I was there during the soft opening, for friends and suppliers, it was free. In other words, the New Year dinner was technically the first time we ate there as paying clients. Continue reading Fish & Co. (Trinoma)
