Ordering also was pretty convenient since we just ordered from their iPad with their mobile application installed in it. It was like ordering online, but better and we get to see the total bill right away. They have already launched their mobile applications downloadable from the Google Play store and the Apple App store that is entirely free. This is so customers can just eat upon arriving and there will no longer be conflicts on payments. We dined here for lunch and we had an exquisite food experience. For drinks, we had their Calamansi Vanilla and Cinnamon Iced Tea. They served a complimentary appetizer which was garlic bread with three kinds of dips: garlic puree, balsamic caramel, and smoked fish tapenade. Meanwhile, for our food, we had fresh mozzarella and grilled sweet bell pepper salad with toasted citrus dressing and roasted rib eye a la "blanquette" with sauteed parsley rice. All those were solo servings since it was already good enough for the two of us. For desserts, we had their trio of homemade ice cream consisting of gingerbread ice cream, rose ice cream and salted caramel ice cream. The other dessert we got to try was madeleines that are Jasmine tea with Mango, Earl Grey and Four Berries. This is absolutely has become one of my favorite restaurants.

Despite the name of the place, they are not exclusively serving French food. They have pasta, steaks, and seafood. If anything, Chateau 1771 is a modern European restaurant serving favorite French, Italian, and Swiss food. When I first visited the place years ago, I was actually anxious about that moment when the waiter would hand me the check. European dining in the Philippines has always been equated with expensive fine-dining. But to my astonishment, the price was actually reasonable. I mean, it's not affordable and one would be crazy or filthy rich to eat in this kind of place every day. But for special occasions, I would recommend this place. My most recent visit was during my wife's birthday. It was a table for two and we had a late lunch. After a few moments of browsing through the menu, she asked for Croquette Salad, while I went for Butter-baked Oysters. For main, she had Vanilla Brick Spring Chicken, or grilled chicken served with vanilla bean dots. I ordered the Potence, the house specialty. It's basically steak where the meat is served hanging from a potence, or metal frame, and then set alight (by the waiter) with brandy. Their Pomelo Fruit Juice is a must try. I would recommend having a reservation when dining at Chateau 1771. While the place typically fills up during dinner, I find it perfect for a late afternoon hangout. The ambience can truly transport you somewhere in Europe.

You know how other shops have fresh fruit shakes but when you drink it it just tastes like sugar? Well, Chateau 1771's shakes are fresh, cold and it's the actual fruit. Oh, their flambeed coffees are amazing. Try their Irish coffee. You'll want more. For dessert, it doesn't matter whether you order a Creme Brulee or a Coffee Bean Sansrival. All of their desserts are excellent.

It seemed their menu was for fine-dining yet the vibe was casual and classy. FOOD Pan Seared Salmon with Calamansi and Brown Butter with Steam Rice was really lovely and the salmon was packed with flavor. Asparagus was a great partner, being fresh and crunchy. Chicken A La Chasseur with Mashed Potatoes had really tender meat and finely mashed potatoes. SERVICE They provided an instructional aide for their Zomato Gold policy, which saved time for everyone. As soon as we were done with each dish, they were pulled out pretty quickly. Apparently, you must order something or melt in your seat not ordering while having your conversations. Fortunately, we were already full and billed out. Wait time was fair for just about everything.

No matter where I go and what I get to eat, Aubergine will always have a place in my heart because…read morethat's where I proposed. A former boss of mine told me that he really enjoyed the food there, and I remembered that 3 years later, when I was deciding where to take Grace on that all-important occasion. I made a reservation about 2 months in advance, just to be sure. I specified that it was going to be a proposal, so I made sure that they got me a booth instead of a table in the middle of the restaurant. I told them that at some point, I'd be asking a member of the staff to take pictures and videos, which they willingly agreed to. The day itself came, a few days before Grace's birthday so she would think it was just a birthday dinner. The staff were all smiles when we entered; they all knew, and they were excited for us. Our 7-course meal started, and it was all perfect. Seeing Grace's face light up with every bite she took just made me more excited for what was to come at the end of the meal: the moment I was gonna ask her to be my wife.

She was apprehensive at first because when she Googled about the restaurant, it said that students of International School for Culinary Arts and Hotel Management (ISCAHM) will be the ones cooking in the kitchen. I assured her that just because they're students doesn't mean that they don't know what they're doing. I was right! We started off our date with a French staple, escargot. The snails were swimming in butter and I envied them in that instance. We saluted their valiant sacrifice as we gobbled them up one by one. For the main course, she had steak and I had the sea bass with risotto. For my dish, the serving could have been bigger but it was as delicious as it can get. All in all, dining in Aubergine was a delight and something we'll definitely do again in the future.

Although Cafe France is known more for their pastries and breads, I enjoy eating the different egg dishes that they serve. You can even order bacon, the ultimate blessing from the breakfast gods!

Expect a creamy and hefty pieces of pastry goodness. Their Almond Croissant (98 PHP) is more than just the sprinkle of almond slices you see, it's also filled with a sweet cream inside that just makes you want more. They only make 6 pieces a day which is odd, but hopefully more in the near future, as we certainly aren't the only fans. If you have time to splurge, suggest staying for a cup of their Hot Chocolate (190 PHP) it's served in a pot (330 ml) which is enough for 2 cups. Share it with a friend or simply indulge in the chocolatey goodness. Staff are courteous and efficient. Water is refilled timely and sometimes even before you even ask. First timers be at ease as the staff can explain fully the products they offer. Here's a tip: 50% off on all their goodies starting 9PM daily, but be quick you're going to be competing with the nearby residents for the little supply they have. We've dined here twice and when 9PM strikes the store is invaded and devoid of pastries in under 15 minutes, talk about a quick sale.
