Chuck's parents were here during the weekend because they had to go to Subic for an auction, so it was food galore for us! They loved the ambiance Lorenzo's Way had so we gave it a shot. Oh, and you might find us arguing about which dishes we liked better. Here is their menu.

And this is what we stuffed ourselves with.

Mediterranean Seafood Soup - this is new in their menu! It's tomato based so Chuck wasn't a fan, but i liked it. :) It could have tasted better if they put more seafood.

 Binacalao - Local salted fish slow cooked with tomatoes, potatoes, chickpeas, and black olives prepared the Spanish way

I preferred this over the Callos.

Callos -  Stewed tripe, tomato, chorizo and chickpeas, from Salana restaurant

Chuck preferred this over the Binacalao.

Crispy Baby Squids - Baby squid fried until crispy, served with a sweet chili sauce, from Bistro Remedios

Yum crispy goodness!

Vegetable Au Gratin - another new dish in their menu. Lacked taste for me but serving size is perfect.

Paella Valenciana - Seafood and meat done the classic Spanish way, from Mil Novicientos

One of the best paellas I have ever tasted.

Angus Top Blade Steak 

Yummy steak considering the price. The gravy made the dish work.

Salted Egg Crab 

Great crab! Sauce could improve though on it's "chilliness".

Lengua Estofada - Tender beef tongue simmered in a wine sauce with mushrooms and olives, served with rice, from Cafe Adriatico 

Chuck loves lengua. I hate lengua. Go figure.

U.S. Black Angus Rib Eye Steak al Ajilo - US rib eye pan fried with shitake and button mushrooms sauce

Most expensive dish we bought, but it's really worth it. Steak tastes great with or without the garlic.

Verdict:

- Family/date type of restaurant

- Price is reasonable

- Place provides perfect ambiance

- LJC group did it again! :)
