Kinoko Frites

Price: Php 235
Serving size: Good for sharing unless you want to keep it to yourself 😉

Kinoko means “specialty mushrooms” in Japanese while frites means “fries“.

Kinoko Frites is composed of the deep fried enoki (a long thin white mushroom) and oyster mushroom (one of the commonly sought wild mushrooms). It was tossed in matcha salt and served with tonkotsu mayo.  For a non-matcha lover,  you might thought that this one is not for you but I have good news for you! The matcha flavor is not strong enough to be noticed plus the tonkotsu mayo was rich and flavorful which helped enhance its flavor.

Price: Php 170
Serving size: Good for one but may not even be enough for you

This takes 20 minutes to be cooked. Like, what?  What pancake takes that long to be cooked?  Well,  here it is! The not-so-classic pancake.  It was perfectly buffed even though it’s thick,  moist,  smooth and creamy.  Plus it was served with creme anglaise (French for “English cream”) together with maple syrup which took it to a different level.
