Classic Savory: Classic Feast, Classic Chinese Dishes

Classic Feast, Classic Chinese Dishes 

Classic Savory brings a lot of good memories

to most Filipinos as it was a popular restaurant

way before the giant fast food chains took over

and invaded the Philippine culinary landscape.

 

When it opened its first branch in Bicol in 2013,

it immediately became a favorite place to dine

to most Bicolanos as it still serves some of the

most delicious, all time favorite Chinese dishes,

the way they do for the last four or five decades.

 

We ordered Corn and Crab Soup, and it

was a very delicious way to start a dinner.

 

What followed next was a sumptuous feast of

classic Chinese dishes that stood the test of time

and brought me back to the days of my youth.

 

The Yang Chow Rice was very delicious and

could be eaten as a dish of its own. This all- time

favorite delectable fried rice was cooked with

eggs, bits and pieces of carrots, spiced with garlic

and onions and having the flavorful aftertaste

coming from slices of aromatic Chinese sausage.

 

The is only one word to describe the popular

Classic Savory’s Lumpia Shanghai - savory.

It was so tasty and reeking with a flavorful

spices and delightfully rich umami aftertaste,

The Sweet and Sour Fish was very delicious.

Tender pieces of breaded fish fillet, bathed with

a tangy- sweetish sauce and spiked with just the

exact sourness of vinegar mildy spiced with chili.

We loved the Lechon Chop Suey was a unique

fusion dish. What was supposed to be a healthy

stir fried, fresh and crispy assorted veggies was

sinfully topped with chunky pieces of roasted pig.

It was ab odd but surprisingly delicious combination.

 

Of course, dining in this restaurant is never complete

without the tasty and juicy Savory Fried Chicken.

this fired chicken is the reason of Classic Savory’s

longevity that makes people coming back for  more.

While we were dining, the crew inquired if we have

a SM Advantage Card and when we said yes, they

served us a free Steamed Fish Fillet.  The steamed

tender fish fillet with a sesame- like aftertaste sprinkled

with bits and pieces fried garlic and was served lying

in a bed of deliciously slimy sotanghon noodles.

We also feasted on numerous Chinese

desserts from the sweet and chewy Buchi,

 

…one of the most delicious Turon

that we have ever tasted in the city,

… and our all time favorite Black Gulaman.

Classic Savory recently opened another branch

in Legazpi City and the move would bring this

revered restaurant to more Bicolanos in the region.
