Apartment 1B

I found a slice of heaven out of the unexpected places in Makati. This Apartment is surely a place I would love to go back to over and over again if i needed to go somewhere just to simply enjoy good food. The restaurant presents itself like an apartment (hence the name) thus adds to its homey touch. Just imagine, take away the bed, the sofa and add a lot of dining tables, the kitchen and side bar transformed to the serving area and cashier, which I wonder how to the employees there can cramp themselves in there. Even the washroom there is like of an apartment. I’d like to ask the manager one day why they make up such a place.

As for the food i ordered you can check out the pictures under below in this entry. I have discovered here what could be my comfort food. The Corn Chowder and the Frozen Pie (Vanilla Ice Cream Cake with Oreo Crust). The Chowder is comforting for the heart and the ice cream is something i bet you’d fight over with your GF/BF for the last chunk of oreos. I was able to experience a variety of main courses such as the Grilled Porkchops with Potato Gratin (not sure) and applesauce, The Apt1B Meatloaf and Lasagna. The serving is definitely BIG!, enough for any big guy to be satisfied and I guess enough for a couple to share.

Now for the price, well… it is indeed pricey. Not something you can afford having Lunch or Dinner everyday if your just the average middle class guy. But it’s something worth going for if you want to treat yourself or someone for something special. So your planning to go here and splurge, i’d say start saving up, I’d estimate it could go an average of 1k per person, or can go as high as 2.5k if your after just steaks, lambs and lobsters.

The place is open from 7am - 12mn from Mondays - Saturdays. They are close on Sundays (aww..shucks) expect a lot of people when going there since majority of the guest are expats and corporate workers and some couples who most like are working in the corporate world of Makati.  This is a restaurant that I never get tired coming back over and over again thus, the restaurant deserves the whole 5 Stars in my book.

Porkchops with Potato Gratin and Applesauce.

This baby is actually 2 slabs and though in this picture it may seem like one. Despite that it’s a pork dish, but the meat is absolutely tender and juicy. I enjoy eating this without any condiments or sauce.

Cheesy Lasagna

Apartment 1B Signature Meatloaf dish with Mash Potatoes and Grilled vegetables

Greek Salad

The very famous Frozen Pie (Vanilla Ice Cream Cake with Oreo Crust drizzled with Caramel and Chocolate Syrup with Crushed Walnut). This is definitely a treat and worth fighting for the last bite. I assure anyone who is out on a date that this dessert can certainly end the day right.
