I
took my 2nd bite again here in Zarzuela restaurant located in the East Wing of
Shangri La Plaza, the feeling of eating here again is like eating for the very
first time. I attended a round up meeting and lunch with my blogger friends and
its funny that this resto is the only establishment that brought us back
together in one place and one time for the first time hahaha. Dining with your
“tropa” is fun and it brought us a lot of laughter and also the act of sharing
our status in the online and offline world.
So while dining, I took a
time to take photos and also blog it here. I arrived an hour late so I just
missed the other two meals that they ordered here in Zarzuela restaurant. I
already featured this in my blog before and you can read my review and feature
here about Zarzuela restaurant -
http://azraelsmerryland.blogspot.com/2013/07/zarzuela-restaurant-in-new-east-wing-of.htmlAfter
some months..we meet again Zarzuela. They are located at the 6th level of East
Wing of Shangri La Plaza, Its kinda less crowded here because some of the stores
around the level are not yet opened, even if there are restaurants booming at
the 5th level, I see that in the future of this 6th level, it will be more
crowdy because there’s an access going near the cinema and also to other
stores.
We also met again the owner of the resto and then he told us
what we think of the food today and also what we can suggest for their
restaurant, for me the food is no problem, but I told them they should put some
photos of the food around the resto, but I realized that it might ruin the
interiors and ambiance of the resto, it will no longer look a homey feeling but
more on a carinderia feeling, but its nice that they installed a photo of their
new menu infront of the resto.
Pinangat (P229)
My friends already finished their food and
ate most of the meat, but I noticed that my favorite Pinangat is still left
almost untouched, I’m so happy that I ate this again, it’s a food delicacy in
our province in Quezon, I always hoard this whenever I visit Tayabas and
Sampaloc, Quezon.
Krispy
Binagoogan (Php 359)
Pork and pig's skin cook with Bagoong, it tastes like
caldereta with bagoong, pork is soft and the pig's skin is so soft and others
are crispy. The tastiest food that I tasted today. Its an original cooking style
here in Zarzuela.
Krispy
Pitaw (Php 419)
A crispy flakes made from the meat of a Quail bird. According
to their menu this is an Ilonggo delicacy
Savor
Maruja
Tasted this before, and the traditional maruja is just plain deep
fried banana with floury coatin, but here in their version it’s a little bit
sosy..haahaha. fried sliced banana top with chocolate syrup, caramel and vanilla
ice cream.
Savor
Maruja
I love to take this home, but the ice cream won’t wait
best served
when the banana is freshly fried
Piaya
con Helado
new dessert in pinoy style! Its my firs time to eat a piaya with
ice cream on top, they said that their piaya is supplied by a top piaya maker,
not sure what it is, but then I joke on my friend that we can buy one from the
grocery and add ice cream. Its an idea that I’ll copy from Zarzuela hehehe.
thanks!
Funny..we
are here infront of everyone and we still communicate via Facebook

kumagcow.com I love to post their menu here, sometimes its helpful to me
if ever I want to check out their menu online and I can go back here and re-read
my blog post about Zarzuela.
I
want to go back here with my family…hopefully before my sister move to a new
home, I just want to share this new resto to them, because we are a big fan of
pinoy and Spanish-inspired cuisine. When I always hear or mention this resto,
Zarzuela always reminds me of “family and friends” happily eating
together.
Visit Zarzuela restaurant in 6th level of East Wing of Shangri La Mall
They don’t have yet a Facebook or Twitter page, but watch out for it and I
will help to get the word out.
