More than fish at Fish & Co.

****Best Fish & Chips in Town**** 
 
We were recently invited by  Fish & Co. and Mr. Carlo to partake in a fabulous meal for the senses.  Great sights, great smells, great food.  I have rarely eaten at Fish & Co., not because I don't like it, but because my family always prefer Chinese foods, so that is why I always find it a treat to try out different restaurants.  And here we are savoring their lovely dishes.


Fish & Co. added new food items for their menu, and may I add they look very promising
First up, Appetizer - Shrimp Prawn Trellies (P 255), wrapped in Vermicelli, I could not get enough of this, dipped in special mango sauce with a pinch of spiciness, perfect start to great meal ahead
 Breaded Chicken Piggyback (P385).... I was wondering why it was called that, alas I see that the prawns were made to look like piggy tails...aha how creative.  Chicken was very crisp outside and juicy inside - Perfect!  The prawns were very fresh and complemented the chicken well.
 Grilled Lamb Chops (P 995), personally I don't eat lamb meat, but with the look of my friends face, I'm
pretty sure it was a delight to their palate
 Shrimp and Chicken breast Al Pesto (P 395), the shrimps were so good so was the chicken breast, definitely healthy food for the health-conscious
Garlic Steak and Shrimp Combo (P1494), sided with mushrooms and rice, 
good for the glutton in all of us
Grilled Mediterranean Tenderloin (P725) - Amazingly this tenderloin was cooked so well, I didn't even have to use a steak knife, I used my spoon and fork only.  That is how perfect it was.
Grilled Chicken Peri-Peri (P 440) a hefty serving good for 2, juicy chicken, tasty skin can't resist not eating that sorry.... anyways it was grilled so less guilt!!
Grilled Porkchop Basilico (P560) when I tasted this I almost forgot my name, I had eaten chunk after chunk, but still my taste buds keep telling me... more, more, more!!!
 and to cap it all a desert for the Gods, hot fudge chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream (P 190) OMG!!!! this is so heavenly, get a chunk of chocolate cake then smother it with vanilla ice cream and ..... bliss!!! 

Food prices : P 250 to P1500

Thanks to Fish & Co., Mr. Carlo and Ms. Jane for the invitation.

Have your share of steak at Good Fellas Steaks and Burgers

We were recently invited to savor lavish steaks and dishes from Goodfellas Steaks and Burgers.  Now let's stop the talking and start eating and dining like what they did during the Mafia days.

I love their ice tea in lemon and raspberry flavor.  The Gambino Family (Shrimp Salpicao) P 375 - was very enticing to eat, It had a pinch of spice because of the pepper, but they were very fresh and really tasty.
 Carlito's Way (Angus Salpicao) P 375 to share
First in line, Bambino Ribs (Baby Back) P 225 quarter; P325 half-rack  Now this is a steal... the ribs were perfect, soft and juicy on the inside, great with BBQ sauce
Goodfellas House steak P 325, this looks great and succulent, very meaty and juicy 10 oz. of yummy Angus beef, It is one of their best sellers.
Jimmy Two Times ( thick pork chop served 2 ways) P 295
This is one of my favorites.  Pork chop served 2 ways, 1 grilled to perfection, 1 breaded to crispiness.  The grilled pork chop was so good, I've forgetten I had the breaded one as well.   The breaded chop was crispy out and juicy on the inside, you will never go wrong with this.....CRAVE FOR MORE.
Good Fella burger (P 135) yummy beef patty
Pat and Geno's Sandwich (Philly Cheese Steak sandwich) P 220.00
This is a must try, just look at the beefy juices flowing and melted cheese all over....

Aside from the wonderful dishes Goodfellas has to offer, they have a great selection of wines to taste and complement your sumptuous meal.  Great wines tastes great when having it with your steaks.  I am not a wine drinker nor an expert in this field so my opinions are purely my own.  We were given 3 kinds of wines to sip, and I do appreciate having taste tests and tickling my taste buds to new horizons.  Shown below is the Sunrise Merlot, I guess most of us (all the food bloggers present) would all agree that we all loved this.  It has a sweeter aftertaste compared to the other two, and thus would definitely suit the Philippine market. 
Toblerone Cheesecake P160 loved this!! wish the Toblerone bits would be bigger....sinful
Yummy!! Thanks for the pose.
Carrot Cake P 120

Loved the feeling that is as if I was in a movie set of "The Godfather".  This place really feels like home and actually, this place was a residential house before it was transformed into Goodfellas Steaks and Burgers.

They have formally opened their doors last Sept. 11, 2010 and is a favorite hang out of many celebrities that have heard of their delicious steaks.

Price Range : P150 - 2,000
