Yellow Cab, 3 PM Breakfast

Yellow Cab

3 PM Breakfast

It was a rainy Sunday, we all woke up late

and had a light 11 am snacks at home...

It was still raining when we left the house…

past 2 PM and everyone was hungry

for our first real major meal for the day…

We arrived at

Yellow Cab at 3 PM.

Their new breakfast fares

are available all day…

…and we ordered one each
of Salami, Hungarian and Bacon
breakfasts….

My son wanted to eat rice

so I had Bistek Pinoy rice toppings

delivered from Biggs nearby…

It was cold a rainy afternoon.

and a piping hot coffee from Starbucks …

...just beside the restaurant

was perfect for the weather…

Yellow Cab is a haven

for Pizza and Pasta…

The Tomato Soup sourness

is enough to perk you up on a cold day…

The goodness of real tomato

dominates the spaghetti

the way it was supposed to taste…

The Potato wedges

was soft, velvety and tasty…

Mushroom and Pepperoni Pizza

was the best in town…

The breakfast fares

are good enough to be taken

anytime of the day and

Egg and Hungarian Sausage

 
Ham and Egg..

…fortunately, available all day…

both filling and handy to eat

and they all taste great…

No one ate dinner after we went home

as every one was so full

No one craved for anything anymore…

The Yellow Cab breakfast at 3 PM

was the only meal we needed for the day.

They moved to SM City Naga in 2009

Pizza Hut in SM gives you

A classmate commented in one of my entries

that I seem biased against

most of the Filipino restaurants…

I beg do disagree.

I love Filipino Cuisine.

I grew up with Filipino food, so I know
how an authentic native dish tastes.

That familiarity, maybe the reason

why I’m harder to please when it comes to our own food.

One should be very cautious

In tinkering the original recipe

as it may make or unmake the chef in doing so…

Fusion Cuisine is where

Chef Doy’s succeeds…

He has perfected the art of combining elements

of different Filipino culinary traditions,

...and comes out with delicious new recipes

but with the familiar but moreimproved taste
that we have gotten used to.

We started with Chicharong Bulaklak na Manok

using chicken innards as appetizer.

The dish was not unique as this could be bought commercially

but the Chef Doy’s type is not the salty nor the spicy kind…

There is barely a hint of salt,

just the pure natural taste the way it is supposed to be……

We all gobbled them up with gusto…

...until it disappeared so fast

that we needed to order another appetizer…

We decided to have “Batangbatang Pusit”

or young squid cooked in olive in spices…

It is a variant of Adobong Pusit  

and it tasted so good that we decided

to reserve it for the main meal.

We thought the dish would be better eaten rice
than just being an appetizer…

We once had a funny dining experience in Athens Greece.

We ordered rice after being given a delicious fish appetizer.

The chef advised us ”it does not go well with rice…”

I retorted that everything goes well with rice for Filipinos.

With a sigh of exasperation, he gladly served us one…

I love Pancit Bato cooked the most natural way-

guisado with nothing but pechay and soy sauce.

No more no less.

 I like what Chef Doy did to Pancit Bato…

he cooked it like Pancit Canton to perfection…

We were already full after the Pancit Bato was served

 we thought we could not eat anything anymore…

We were wrong…

the main course was just as fantastic

that would entice you to eat more

even if your tummy is filled to the brim….

The Salmon Belly sa Miso

as delicious and gelatinous…

...the taste was superb and we kept on wondering

that we rarely taste any hint of salt on most of the dishes

which is the common fare among Filipino dishes…

In contrast to most Kare- kare made of slimy oxtail.

Nobody would have realized its crispy version ...

...would be a perfect combination..

Kare- kare was fused with Lechon Kawali…

This dish was a

work of a genius.

We are used to eating Singalay na Tilapia with Pechay…

but Chef Doy’s version of combining it with malunggay

was also witty and unexpectedly perfect...

My kids, especially my son loves fish

but not necessarily malunggay ...

This is a brilliant idea of letting them

eat the kid- dreaded vegetable by fusing it

with something more edible…

The fish was so good that everything

 disappeared in a jiffy...

...other dishes were also consumed

up to the last morsel of food...

The desserts were also glorious-

the lanka in turon was gelatinous
and with just enough sweetnes

 ...and the Pili- topped

 leche flan was heavenly…

Chef Doy’s definitely is

      ...a must visit…

              …must eat place…

                …and must not be missed ...
