Chef Robert located in the Banawe restaurant row is run by Chef Robert Tan and has been open since July, 2009. Chef Robert took up culinary arts at Sunrice the Global Chef Academy in Singapore.
Started off the meal with Classic Ceasar Salad, topped with generous amount of bacon bits. I love that the lettuce was very crispy and the croutons were crunchy and not stale. The hard boiled eggs added a nice color contrast to the salad.
Lengua ala Pobre (Ox Tongue) was up next. This dish was only added to their menu upon the request of a regular patron who loved lengua and would always mention to Chef Robert to add it to the menu. The lengua is very tender, owing to the long cooking time. The dish also uses a lot of butter to mask off the smell for people who are averse to lengua. It’s the perfect chance to try this delicacy.
The main course was paired with a glass of Casillero del Diablo.
Panna Cotta capped off the meal, I loved the panna cotta, it was very creamy and topped with blueberry.
