Figaro's all day Breakfast & Figaro Frost

Figaro Coffee Company is now offering breakfast to go with their famous Figaro Coffee. The New all day breakfast set by Chef Karl Marxist Tan is set on affordable price that you will surely enjoy not just in the morning but anytime of the day.



There are three sets of breakfast meals to choose from:



Classic Corned Beef – a sumptuous serving of juicy corned beef, sauted in onions served with tomato-cucumber salsa and fried farm fresh egg. This is probably one of the all time favourite breakfast of many, I love the juicy corned beef sauted in onions just like how i do it at home. (P175, served with 8 oz. Brewed coffee)    
 


Pork Longganisa – Savor the sweet and spicy flavour of homemade pork longganisa perfectly complemented with tomato-cucumber salsa and fried farm fresh egg. This is a must order breakfast set and my fave among the three breakfast set. The homemade longganisa is so full of flavour and very delicious. (P175, served with 8 oz. Brewed coffee)  


 
Gourmet Crispy Tuyo – Perfect blend of flavours and spices infused over crispy tuyo flakes served with fried eggplant, tomato-cucumber salsa and fried farm fresh egg. Who would have thought that you would find a “tuyo” meal in a coffee shop? The crispy tuyo is perfect with the garlic rice and is a new and distinctive meal to be served. (P175, served with 8 oz. Brewed coffee)              
 
If you want to veer away from the usual coffee drink, Figaro offers three new exciting 
Frost Flavors! 



Chocolate Cookie (P135)

Creme Brulee (P125)

Strawberry Milkshake (P125) 

The Frost drinks are perfect for humid weather but is also nice at any time of the day. I have tasted only the Strawberry Milkshake, coz that’s what I ordered and I loved it! It’s not too sweet and not too sour, the blending is perfect.

Check out Figaro for store locations.





Goodfellas Steaks and Burgers

Contrary to many belief that it's expensive to dine at a place where they mostly serve steaks and burgers, I have just found a steakhouse which serve the same steak with other steakhouse at the most affordable price. Fellas, I'd like to share with you GoodFellas Steaks and Burgers.

 

Goodfellas Steaks and Burger is located at #56 K-1st St. cor T. Gener, Kamuning, Quezon City. Business hours Sunday to Thursday, 11:00am - 11:00pm.

When you get inside, you will notice the "Mafia" ambiance through the paintings and lighting's inside the restaurant. The founders, Jon Espiritu III and Atty. Raji Mendoza has always been fascinated in the Mafia world since they were kids and even until now.



They serve American dishes that are Italian inspired. They serve in large portions with fresh ingredients that satisfy their customers taste with a lot of value for their money. Let's have a look at what we have on our table:


Pat & Geno [P220] 
Famous Angus Phillycheesesteak sandwich served on ciabatta 
Gottis Cheese  [P345 to share]
Mozzarella Sticks served with tomato salsa dip. This appetizer comes in big serving and is good for sharing.
Carlito's Gang [P375 to share]
Angus Beef Salpicao, good to share. The flavor of the beef is very tasty and this side kick is as good as main course already, just order extra rice. Hehe.





Wise Burger [P295/solo & P345/combo]
This is their own version of Bacon Cheese Burger, 200 grammer honey cured bacon is the main attraction of this burger. Combo comes in with fries and drink.



Margherita Burger [P215/solo & P265]
100 grammer charboiled burger, roasted tomato, mozzarella, basil and cheese sauce.


Besides from the appetizers which they call Side Kicks, and Burgers and Sandwiches then comes Big Plates, a part of their menu where they have the main course.
  
For my main course, I ordered The Freshman, it's Grilled Fish Skewers / Lemon Butter served with Rice Pilaf & mixed vegetables. I love the flavor of the fish and how it was grilled, it's perfectly grilled. I had a very colorful plate, almost every color is there.
 
 


Goodfellas House Steak [P325]
(8-10 ounce Angus House Steak) This is one of their bestsellers. The steak is tender and juicy and I love it with the A1 steak sauce.
Gambino Crew (P325)
Grilled shrimps with rice pilaf for seafood lovers.
Bambino Ribs [P325/quarter & P585/half rack]
Baby back pork ribs served with rice pilaf and mixed vegetables. They serve a generous amount of mixed veggies. A must order under Big Plates.
Rasperry Ice Tea and Blue Lemonade [P45]
It has always been a delightful way to end the meal with dessert. They served three of their famous cakes and the sweetest way to end the night was the mount of ice cream called Mt. Everest.

New York Cheese Cake [P130]
Toblerone Cheesecake [P150]
A personal favorite! This cake is specially made by the owners wife and a must order after the meat feast. The cheesecake blends soo good with the toblerone.

Eight scoops of different flavors of your favorite ice cream that's good to share special dessert by Goodfellas. The flavors include Orange, Bubble Gum, Strawberry, Choco Mint, Vanilla, Avocado, and i forgot the other one.
