Whenever the family would crave for affordable Asian comfort food in our neighbor Robinson's Place Mall, we all know that our destination would be Recipes.
Recipes now has 9 branches with this Greenhills 8 Missouri branch just newly opened.
What sets this Recipes branch apart from the rest, it that it has Specialties and Sweets. Specialties and Sweets is their sister company that offers pastries.
The cakes are great desserts.
Just looking at the chiller, you will surely find them enticing.
The cookies and cakes are also a good match to their teas and coffee.
Food
Chicken
 |
| ♥ General's Chicken (225 php) |
For me the General's Chicken style is similar to the Korean Fried Chicken or Manang's Chicken. What I like about this is that the thigh fillet are neatly cut into chunks so you don't need to grab them with your hands. The sweet-spicy sauce is also not overwhelmingly strong so you can eat this along with other viands. It also has eggplant slices that complement in terms of flavor and texture.
Vegetables
 |
| ♥ Vegetable Kare Kare (175 php) |
The Vegetable Kare Kare is my favorite. I'm a huge fan of kare-kare and Recipes does it right.
 |
| ♥ Gising Gising (190 php) |
The Gising Gising is so good and crave-worthy! Sometimes, I would dine at Recipes simply just for this. The right amount of spiciness that goes well with the coconut milk, savory flavor from the pork meat and pleasurable crunchiness from the chopped baguio beans makes this Gising Gising dish so irresistibly good.
Seafood
 |
| Crispy Tilapia (225 php) |
I'm very picky with the tilapia fish. I can only count by hand the tilapia dishes I like. And, this Crispy Tilapia is one of them.
Drinks
 |
| Fresh Fruit Juice: Ripe Mango (88 php) |
Coffee
 |
| Cappuccino (100 php) with Complimentary Cran-Date Nut Squares (Christmas Promo) |
Specialties and Sweets
 |
| Calamansi Tart (140 php) |
The Calamansi Tart is a really tangy. Best to eat it with the sweet meringue top if you can't tolerate sourness.
 |
| ♥ Barako Brownie with Vanilla Sauce (160 php) |
The Barako Brownie with Vanilla Sauce is to die for! Perfect sweet meal-ender. Bravo!!!
Tsinoy Foodies Verdict
