Spiral Lunch Date


So I'm back again at Spiral but this time with the boyfie <3
And yes, we availed the CashCash Pinoy voucher again for this lunch teehee








Cheese Room <3


Photo-op with the cheese selection available ;)



Boyfie loves Camembert but I'm totally clueless with cheese ~im only familiar with cream cheese, cheddar, parmesan and mozarella! lol

So here he is posing with the cheese connoisseur lol



Here's what the chef recommended.
She basically, put all the best-sellers in this plate haha
Too bad, I forgot the names of these =/



Some sides to go with our cheese <3
Super love pairing the cheese with pear jam then I'll bite in some walnut! YUM


Got some wine too.
TBH, I've never really eaten cheese with wine before so I wanted to give it a try.
The server suggested the perfect wine to go with our cheese tho I forgot to take note again of the name hihi sowee!





our wine and cheese platter! :))




boyfie got the green pea soup



while i got the pumpkin.
And I think the green pea tasted better!




my mixed salad..with frog legs haha



assorted sushi



assorted grilled meat
love the sausage!




duck and char sui



seafood noodles



indian selection





Chef's recommendation: seafood marinara
This was ok. Wasn't able to finish this, got the "umay" factor after a bit.
Also, I know pasta should be al dente but I really prefer my pasta to be a bit on the medium side of softness. 




Would you believe we stayed in Spiral for 3.5 hours, consuming everything we can??!!
It was already the last call for the buffet so we rushed towards the dessert area to get some goods! LOL



our dessert plates


Spiral's truffles and pralines are really a MUST.
Make sure to get some when you're there!
I'm planning to bring my tupperware the next time I visit!haha *kidding*



Don't miss their ice cream selection as well!





Well look who we saw dining there too, former Manila city Mayor Lito Atienza.
FYI, we also saw him the last time we ate here for lunch lol
I guess he loves Spiral too!

Lunch Buffet: Café d'Asie at Bellevue Hotel Alabang



Now here's something near my place in the south :)
I remember the first time I went to Bellevue was when my high school friend held her debut here 8 years ago lol

Voucher price: P899 valued at P1540 c/o Deal Grocer 



 Bread/Cookie Area


Salad/Cold Dishes Selection




More salad selection
Didn't get any from this area but now I regret not getting some of that spicy tuna!
 looks sooo good -__- i hate myself lol


Pork Barbecue Fried Rice


 Salmon Beurre Blanc


Grilled Vegetables with Balsamic Glaze

Sorry, don't have other pics of their hot dishes.
They didn't offer a lot to begin with and when we got there, most of it were already gone lol


Desserts







Fruit Selection


 Yummy Gelato
I got the dark choco but it's a bit sweet for my taste



Of course, my favorite Bread Pudding
love.love.love


So here's what I got:
Creamy pumpkin soup with bacon bits


Salmon, veggies, pork something and tempura
To be honest, I was quite disappointed with the selection of hot dishes.
It was quite few for a buffet =/
That's why I don't have much pics to show you :(


Juicy Steak


My bread pudding with chocolate sauce *nom nom nom*


Mom, bro and moi ;)


Verdict:

FOOD
I enjoyed the vegetables and the steak though it's not really something that I would go back to. And as I mentioned before, not so much selection of hot dishes so if I had to rate it, I'd give it a 5/10 -and that's me being kind lol

SERVICE
Service was excellent. The staff were very attentive and helpful in assisting us with our food hehe

THE MAIN QUESTION
Will I go back?
No. Not really. For the price of P899, I think I'd get more value for money if I just eat at Yakimix lol
