Feature: Taste of Capitol Filipino-American Bistro Diner

Monday, September 14, 2015

     Hi dearies! Two weeks ago, I was invited by Taste of Capitol Filipino-American Bistro Diner to try their menu offerings. At first I have no idea about the newest dine-in and chill out place located in one of the busy streets of Quezon City. The place has a laid back look. You can feel the American-Mexican-Filipino fusion once you step inside the bistro diner because of the displays and the paintings on their tables and walls.

     They've served their best-selling entrees to invited bloggers that day. Aside from all time favorites that I'll be sharing the photos below, they are also serving all day breakfast, big breakfast, favorite desserts, flavored  beers, and cocktails. I've heard that Taste of Capitol first location was in Kapitolyo, Pasig then last August they decided to move and start their business here in Quezon city as a bistro-diner. See some of their delectable and savory offerings below :)

     This is the first floor of Taste of Capitol. There's a mini bar where you can order your favorite drinks and chill out with friends. They have flavored beers, wines and liquors, and cocktails. They are also offering promos for their drinks so if you're looking for a place where you can eat and get booze at the same time, this is the perfect place for you.

     The photos below are just some of the offerings on their menu. The price is affordable and some of the servings are good for sharing. Here are the food offerings that are dubbed as the all time favorites:

1. Crispy Liempo Nachos

     Their nacho corn chips re not the usual yellow corn chips. It is colorful- you can see green, red, and orange corn chips served with tomatoes, onions, lechon bits, and drizzled with mayonnaise and spices plus sprinkled with grated cheese. This is one of my favorites from the menu!

2. Buffalo Wings

     Their deep-fried chicken wings are covered with rich and tangy sauce. I'm not a fan of buffalo wings but this one is a hit for me. I like that the sauce is rich and savory.

3. Chicken Tender wrapped in Bacon

     If you're planning to eat chicken and can't decide if you'll go for the usual fried chicken or chicken barbeque, this one will answer your dilemma. Chicken fillet wrapped in bacon with gravy sauce.

4. Fish and Chips

     This big serving of fish and chips is good for sharing but for a fish and chips lover like me, the whole plate is mine. This will be my default order next time I'll visit Taste of Capitol :)

5. T- Bone Steak

     Go American with their T-Bone Steak and mashed potato on the side. Carbo loading? Ask for a piping hot rice instead! Love the the marinade and the sauce on the side. I'm not a meat nor steak lover but this one made me think twice.

6. Carbonara

     Red or white? If you're a pasta lover, you can choose five different types of pasta in their menu. Carbonara, Meatball Spaghetti, Seafood Pasta, Olive Oil Garlic, and Chicken Pesto.

7. Chicago Meatballs

     Huge servings of meatballs with a special cream sauce. Another twist to the ordinary meatballs that we see in tomato pasta.

8. New York Hotdog

     Not your usual hotdog sandwich because of the special sauce plus a generous serving of tomatoes and onions on top. I can say it's like a taco and hotdog in one bun.
