Last week was fast-paced as we had our first young scientists conference but there was a sense of accomplishment from all the finished tasks that a reward is inevitable. From here on, when I say "reward", I usually refer to treating myself with good food. It was Tuesday afternoon and off we went, my two friends and I, amidst the 5:00 PM rush and the threat of rain, to Nuvali, Sta. Rosa. Worn-out scientists definitely need a break.
You must be lucky if you have friends who are also food lovers. Food and friends always make good combinations. Add good conversation and the whole dining experience will be perfect! And so the three hungry tummies decided to eat at Crisostomo.
Crisostomo is by far, the Filipino restaurant I've been to that has the most diverse food options with recipes named after characters of Noli Me Tangere (e.g. Crazy Sisa Squid, Achara ni Ibarra, Sisig Isagani, the list goes on). Crisostomo in itself is the name of the main character in the novel. It has a Filipino-Hispanic feel and the wooden tables and chairs made me feel like my mother is going to serve my dinner. I am a fan of "lutong-bahay" and I can't wait to place our order.
