Random Thoughts

Inspired by turn-of-the-century Filipino dining, Chef Florabel Co's Crisostomo restaurant pays tribute to cultures that have influenced local cuisine: Spanish, American, Japanese and Chinese, plus a touch of Chef Co's innovations.

You wouldn't believed when I tell you that we ate at Crisostomo twice already. After we discovered this last May for snacks, we brought our relatives from the States and ate here again for dinner a couple of days ago. We just love the food although a bit pricey for a no-occassion eat out, it would be worth if you are celebrating something.

Here are the food that we already get to try and I highly recommend that you try it too:

For Snacks/Dessert:
- Pansit Canton
- Buko Pandan
- Banana Split
- Malunggay with Calamansi drink (My little girl loved this to bits! Not to mention it's very healthy too)
- Mango Cream Pie
- Leche flan (although this one was too sweet and creamy for me)

For Dinner:
- Liwayway (Bangus with Fried Garlic)
- Don Juan (Grilled Liempo)
- Don Rafael (Crispy Pata)
- Kangkong Selo (Stir fried Kangkong)

The food was delish! There are more options available that I want to try one of these days. Hopefully we get to visit Crisostomo again soon.

Crisostomo is located at 2/F Newport Mall at Resorts World Manila, Pasay City, Metro Manila. You may call them at (02) 846-9276 for reservations.
