Photoblog: The Aristocrat Food Tour
Last Sept. 8 was my first time to do a whole day food tour of the historic family restaurant, The Aristocrat!
My co-bloggers ordered other breakfast menu items:

With Christmas around the corner, my eyes lit up as we're served Puto Bumbong and Puto Bibingka!

On our next stop, we traveled 4 hours to The Aristocrat branch located at San Pablo, Laguna's pioneer shopping mall, Ultimart.
We ate the restaurant's specialty -- barbecue alongside some Pinoy favorites!

After our shopping trip at Liliw, Laguna (I wish we had more time!), the team went to the opening of branch number 14!

I was still full from lunch + the sandwiches I ate in between traveling so I opted to pick three merienda offerings (no photo of the Arroz Caldo).

There was also dinuguan, puto, and ensaymada.. Spell BLOATED! Haha! But.. who said you can't have space for dessert? :P
[caption id="attachment_365" align="aligncenter" width="800"] Halo Halo goodness <3[/caption]
It was almost midnight. We're all tired and the lack of sleep from last night was already taking its toll on me.
[caption id="attachment_377" align="aligncenter" width="650"] Hot cuppa to the rescue! :P[/caption]
But we can't pass up on crispy pata, neh? :P
[caption id="attachment_376" align="aligncenter" width="650"] Ask for this special dip instead of the usual vinegar + sili :)[/caption]
Before heading home, I bought pasalubong!
One loaf of whole wheat bread (P70), chocolate cream puffs, ensaimada malolos and Torta delos Reyes!
[gallery columns="2" link="none" ids="371,372"]
I wasn't able to taste the Torta delos Reyes (half @ P460) during breakfast but everyone has been raving about it and it didn't disappoint! Who can resist Sans Rival + chocolate anyway? :P
[caption id="attachment_370" align="aligncenter" width="500"] Slice of heaven? Hehe :)[/caption]
The Aristocrat opens its doors to anyone who want to share good Filipino food with their family and friends! Visit the branch near you!
Thank you to The Aristocrat and Open Rice Philippines for the fun treat! 'Til next time! :)
Breakfast @ The Aristocrat Manila
I had to eat breakfast before leaving the house so I have the energy to travel to San Andres, Manila. At the restaurant, I opted for a lighter meal so I ordered an American Bacon plate (P255 /$6). It comes with 4 strips of bacon, 2 eggs, 2 pieces of toasted bread with a choice of butter or marmalade as spread.
