The Goose Station


If you're looking for a place to have a one of a kind gastronomical experience, I highly recommend you go to The Goose Station @ BGC.

TGS, is known for its degustation menu.
Degustation FYI, is basically sampling small portions of all the chef's signature dishes in one sitting (got that from Wiki haha)

You know those movie scenes where the actors eat in a posh resto and the serving is teenie weenie and you'd be like WTF, that is so expensive but you can eat it in two spoon fulls??!! LOL
Yea, that's prolly from a desgustation menu.

But don't worry, degustation usually features 6 or more courses so having mini bits of each meal is quite filling already :)




Our menu for our FriDate <3
We actually got a Deal Grocer voucher for this (!) ~so worth it!

Voucher Price: P1625 valued at P2600 via Deal Grocer



First stop: our complimentary bread
The server offered us several kinds of bread and I took these two.
The longer one was a bit hard =/ 
I wish there was mushroom soup where I could've dipped it hihi =P








And now, let the "the-goose-station" begin! get it?hehe
I just realized that's prolly the reason why they named their resto like that ~quite clever!


Caviar Parfait
-just look at the presentation. it's so photogenic!! <3
Anyway, our server was so funny. After explaining this dish, he warned us that the pebbles underneath are inedible LOL i guess there were past customers who attempted to eat that as well nyahahaha



You would absolutely adore this dish if you're a seafood lover.
It tasted a lot like a colder version of Chawanmushi.




up-close and personal




Eggs Benedict
-Eggs Ben in a glass?! wow this is really unique, noh?



The wafer really complemented the egg concoction.
I wish they gave 2 pieces more though hihi =/



Just a warning, if you're more of a fully-cooked-egg person then you might dislike this dish as it gets too gooey once you've popped the poached egg.




Beet Salad
Now this was the highlight for me. 
I really like the execution of this dish. Each element had its own exquisite taste and everything just blended well altogether. LOVE!

Risoni Negra
the risoni had a bit strong flavor for me
 ~but if you like adobong pusit then i guess you'd appreciate this



mmm just look at that tasty scallop <3




Wagyu
mmm each slice was tender juicy perfection
plus I really love the richness of the mashed potato too



I was about 70% full when this pic was taken




Choco Banana Peanut
what can I say? it's one of the best desserts I've ever tasted in this lifetime and I can die happily now! LOL



A heavenly dish for chocoholics like moi <3



Happy couple <3



drama mode nyahaha



FOOD
Each dish was excellent and has exceeded my expectation.
Most especially the Beet Salad!!! I'm still on a high just thinkin bout how delectable that was (!)


SERVICE
Top notch service.
You get what you pay for.
The waiter who served us, clearly knows each dish ~well done!


THE MAIN QUESTION
Will I go back?
Abso-Fckin-lutely!
Every dish was worth every penny <3
Though, I might need to wait for another voucher for this hehe
