I absolutely love that I’m surrounded by
people who love to eat. My Instagram feed never fails to make me hungry. It
also gives me ideas on where to eat next. And a few weeks back, someone posted
a photo of paella. Soon, I found myself researching about the restaurant that
serves that paella and after a few minutes, I listed it down on my “must visit”
list. And since it’s my birthday next week, I figured that this is the place to
go to treat some of my favorite people.
Hello, ArroZeria Manila!
This new
Spanish restaurant has been gaining followers since it opened. Located at
Century City Mall’s 4th floor, this place has a homey vibe.
And
ArroZeria is quite artsy too with the ladders on the ceiling and adorable door
handle!
We decided
to go for the following dishes: Tatin De
Tomate (PHP395), Jargo Asado (PHP495),
Panceta Y Trigueros Risotto
(PHP450) and the Paella of the Day, Del
SeƱorito (PHP275). [One thing you have to be mindful of when ordering Paella,
Caldoso, Meloso and Fideua is
that there’s a minimum order of two.
The prices in the menu are on a per person basis, which we find quite odd.]
Complimentary appetizer! |
The first
dish to arrive was our salad.
I must say,
the presentation was quite different. The lettuce
was on top of the baked parmesan
and the mozzarella
balls and cherry tomatoes on spinach pesto were at the bottom. However, the
taste wasn’t as impressive. It was too bland for me and for the price of almost
PHP400, it was a bit expensive given its serving size.
