    banapple

    Another place for a great meal is at Banapple. Banapple is famous for their pies and cakes, but they do have good food for lunch and dinner as well. We visited this branch at IL Terrazo in Tomas Morato. The Restaurant is quite small with only 2-3 small tables inside which can only accommodate a few customers.  But They have more tables outside. The only problem is if you are a non-smoker you wont be too happy to sit outside. Another thing I do not like is the table. The design of the table is nice, they use round marbles (holen) with cement and use the marbles as the face of the table, but since the table is too small and marbles have very smooth surface, its really inconvenient to place your glass of iced tea or plate on the table as it easily slides off.

    One of my favorites at Banapple is the Creamy chicken pie served with potato salad, price at P100.00, you’ll get a really huge pie cut in half stuffed with creamy chicken meat. I’m not a huge fan of potato salad, but the salad was just ok for me. This is also good for sharing for 2 persons. I personally loved this dish since I really like chicken pie, and this is probably the largest chicken pie I have encountered, and not to mention the good taste of the moist chicken meat of the pie, This is also best for kids who dislike eating rice for their main meal.

    For pasta, a good choice is the Fettucine Jacintha.  Price at P130.00, the pasta is cooked al-dente served with bread. Eating this dish reminds me of carbonara, not as creamy as a carbonara but equally delicious. The serving size is just enough for its price. A good recommendation for cream based pasta lovers.

    For a rice meal, we ordered Herbed Chicken Rolls with basil cream sauce, served with garlic rice and some carrot sticks on the side.  Price at P160.00. The sauce is cream based and the chicken roll is stuffed with their special herbs which makes every bite a wonder. The chicken piece is relatively ok for the price.

    iced tea

    And like every meal, having a nice ice cold drink is the best way to complement your meal.  If you love the ice tea of CPK and Pasto, I believe you will also like the iced tea of banapple.

    Overall, we give 5/5  for the food, 5/5 for the price and 2/5 for the ambiance. We will surely visit banapple again, and feature the desserts next.
