Ever since I tried X046 Filipino Heritage Bistro, I've vowed to come back with the family. Finally, the night came when we were craving for
Filipino cuisine and near
Makati so it was the perfect destination.
Walking in, I was excited. My family who is hardly excited over Filipino food was a bit skeptic.
But, seeing the awards made them a bit enthusiastic.
The place reflects the authentic Filipino elegance. I love every detail of its interiors from the chair to the lighting.
Lovebirds can opt to seat here. But, no pair dined there that night cause we were all groupies that night.
Very nice plate mat right?
Food
 |
| ♥ Complimentary Puto with Aligue and Yema Dip |
Once we were done ordering, we were served a plateful of
Complimentary Puto with Aligue and Yema Dip. The puto has three flavors: ube, pandan and plain. This is one of the best puto I've ever tried! It was soft and moist. The dip wasn't much but since it's free, I can't really complain.
Spanish Tapas
 |
| ♥ Callos A La Madrilena (545 php) |
The
Callos A La Madrilena is stewed ox tripe and pork hock with chickpeas and chorizos. A serving is good for 3-4 persons. It is one of our family favorite dishes. The ox tripe and pork hock were so tender and the stew was so flavorful! Everyone gave their approval as soon as they tasted this.
Kanin at Pansit
 |
| Tinapa Rice (220 php) |
I rarely praise rice dishes but this
Tinapa Rice is really good! Consider this as an option for your staple.
Family Style Dishes: Seafood
 |
| ♥ Dumaguete Express (Mixed Seafood with Spicy Coconut Sauce) (245 php) |
The
Dumaguete Express is the best dish for that night. It was our first time to try a dish liked this and it won't be the last!
Family Style Dishes: Meat & Poultry
 |
| Adobong Baka sa Bawang (495 php) |
As expected from XO46, they can make an ordinary dish like the
Adobong Baka sa Bawang so extraordinary! This is a heavenly garlicky, salty and savory dish.
Vegetables
 |
| ♥ Ginataang Langka (Young Jackfruit Stewed in Coconut Creme & Seafood) (275 php) |
Like the rest of the dishes, I also loved the
Ginataang Langka. In fact, I'll admit I ate about a half of this!
Mga Dulce
 |
| Casava Cake with Salted Caramel (145 php) |
For dessert, my mom who loves
kakanin (rice delicacies) ordered the
Casava Cake with Salted Caramel. I'm usually not to fond of Casava cakes but boy this was so good that even my brother who doesn't eat desserts loved it. I'd like to applaud the plating.
Desserts
 |
| ♥ Sapin-Sapin Bahaghari (155 php) |
The
Sapin-Sapin Bahaghari is always feautured in magazines and blogs so we just had to check it out for ourselves. It is served with honey wine and mantecado ice cream. We've tried a lot of Sapin-sapin before but none of them offered an experience as astounding as this one. The components just mesh wonderfully together.
 |
| Halo-Halo (135 php) |
Mom wanted to try their
Guinomis but it was not available so the server suggested that we try their
Halo-Halo instead. We were so happy with it. It is very tasty because of its bountiful ingredients.
Tsinoy Foodies Verdict
X046 Filipino Heritage Bistro is the best Filipino-Spanish restaurant in the Metro. usual serving size is for 2 to 4 persons. The price is a bit expensive but considering the quality, service and ambiance, I'd give you a complete go signal!
