On a long break between classes, we decided to go to the UP Bahay ng Alumni, which I have been hearing about since high school. It's a small, awkwardly shaped restau that seats about 20-25 people only. When we got their, there were quite a number of customers ranging from students to teachers all the way to families eating out. Their menu is quite wide ranged and they have a lot if items not found in the menu, so better make sure what their specials are.
What we ate:
Gamberi Pasta Php 210
Spicy. You can have it toned down as you please though. The small shrimps were great since they were fresh, which is something i really love. There was also a touch of lemon in the pasta which helped keep that nasty feeling of "fishiness" (lansa) away. The serving was big enough for 2 people.
Hungarian Sausage & PennePhp 165
Great yummy slices of Hungarian sausage which was sauteed with fresh tomatoes and bell pepper. Since penne pasta was used, I think, this would best serve one person.
Kiss Suite- You get 3 small pieces of cake for the price of Php 55! A great way to taste more cakes at one time actually. One can choose from Devil’s Food Cake, Carrot Cake, Dayap Chiffon Cake, Kahlua Butter Cake or Prune Cake, but that's not all the cakes they have.
We got: Prune Cake-The best of the three.You could hardly tell, it was made of prunes
Dayap Chiffon-A bit disappointing. The cake was too spongey and I could hardly taste the Dayap.
Devil's Food Cake-The cake itself was okay but I hated! the icing used. I actually ended scraping the icing off before eating the rest of the cake.
My thoughts on food, restaus, makeup, fashion, books, movies, photography, events and everything else that interests me. Enjoy!
