Paul

I watched an episode of KrisTv, where Kris was raving about how good their Eclait Aux Fraises (Strawberry Cream Eclair) was. She also liked their Sauté de Poulet Aux Champignons

So when my college friends and I went out last Saturday, we dined there for snacks after our heavy Bulgogi Brothers meal.

A friend and I shared on an order of Sauté de Poulet Aux Champignons,

 

Roasted chicken chunks in a creamy sauteed mushrooms sauce. Served with slices of paul's country bread to dip in.

They were good. But they are better shared than eaten alone. 

Since we also wanted to have tea for drinks, we ordered their Thé Surprise 

Any tea served with a mini crème brûlée, 1/2 moelleux chocolat slice, and two mini macarons

I like everything on this plate. Everything was good. 

We also ordered a piece of Eclait Aux Fraises 

Traditional choux pastry with strawberries and whipped cream

It was so good. The cream tasted heavenly and the strawberries were plump and fresh. My friend even said that she wanted it as her last bite, as she wanted the taste of it to linger.

We also shared on a piece of Chocolate Tart (I forgot to get its french name), which was also good, but not as good as the eclair. 

A friend also ordered this, 

Forgot its name. She only liked the chocolate and not the pastry.

We were all impressed with what we ordered that we went back a few days after and ordered the same thing, except the tart. 

Happy Eating!

French Baker Grilled Chicken

Another one of my Sunday out with the family. We were in Megamall for the KPOP Fest/Korean Convention at the Megatrade. But before going there we had lunch first.



It was a jam-packed day that afternoon. Almost all restaurants, especially the fast food ones were full. We were too hungry, as it was already 4PM, that we didn't look around the upper floors and just settled in the comfy benches of French Baker. We were also too tired and lazy to fall in line, so it was nice that French Baker was not self-service.



We were too hungry that we ordered a lot.

My brother-in-law had the Pork Chop Au Poivre (P228.00)



He liked how they styled the rice, in a pyramid kind of way, he just wanted sauce in his chops, that he kept on dipping on my mother's dish sauce.

My mother had the Grilled Chicken and Mango Salsa (P206.00)



She liked everything in her plate especially the fruit cocktail/mango salsa side dish.

My sister had the Beef Lasagna (P155.00)



Just okay according to her. Wasn't cheesy and doesn't have enough beef.

My niece had the Creamy Seafood Pasta (P207.00)



Just okay too according to her.

While I ordered the Chicken Cordon Bleu (P189.00)



This was my 2nd time to have this. Still like the mashed potato underneath and the breaded chicken which was filled with a lot of cheese that afternoon.

We didn't know that our rice orders come with soups that we ordered a lot of the soup bread bowls.



No problem with that though as my niece was too happy to eat them all. She is a certified soup person.



That weren't all. We also ordered cakes - Carrot, Chocolate Truffle and Blueberry Cheesecake. The carrot cake being the best among the three. We all liked the cream cheese topping and how it had a lot of carrot specks and nuts. And also Green Tea in a Pot, that was served with almond pastry that we also liked.

TURON WITH LECHE FLAN


BLUEBERRY CHEESECAKE


CAFE MOCHA


CHAMOMILE TEA


SABA CON HIELO

All their cakes were dry, even my cheesecake. But it was the least dry among the three. The Turon and the Saba were just okay. My sister said that her Tsokolate Batirol was good, but the serving was little. Their service were impeccable, though. They also have the best view of the lake and volcano.
