Destination: Annabel's in Tomas Morato
This is my first time to ever eat in Annabel's but apparently its been around for a while and is also my father's favorite venue for his business meetings or power lunches.
The ambience gives of this very traditional filipino house, it somewhat reminded me of my grandparent's house...which is now our house. Hmmm. Actually its much like Sonya's Garden in Tagaytay. There were all these vines and greenery adorned on the walls and windows. Down to the matching china and delicate table cloth. Oh not to mention the waiters wearing some sort of barong inspired uniforms as well. All in all, it was perfect for a sunday lunch with the family.
Annabel's is famous for its all-you-can-eat buffet, which is actually a bit expensive at PHP895++/person, from appetizers down to the dessert. So, here's what I had...
Baked Oysters, Salmon and Tuna Sushi, Kani and Salmon Maki Rolls
Warm bread served with a cheese selection and butter.
This was served with Cream of Pumpkin Soup
Watermelon Shake
Prime Rib with Gravy and Potato Wedge, Roasted Pork Belly
Rosemary Chicken with Broccoli, Seafood in White Sauce, Lapu-Lapu Milanese
Canonigo, Mango Mousse, Carrot Cake
There were a lot more items in that buffet that I wasn't able to try anymore since I was already stuffed after the 4th course. I also had a fresh green salad and pumpkin soup which I no longer featured here. Mind you, I barely survived the main course! However, thanks to the canonigo, which was simply divine, I was able to have this pleasant memory of eating at Annabel's...instead to the over-stuffed and satiated feeling I had earlier. We had lunch almost 5 hours ago and I still feel stuffed! If only I could go back just for the Canonigo...
YUMMY IN MY TUMMY!
