HAPPY ANNIVERSARY BEB!

It was our 2nd anniversary and we celebrated by eating at a fine dining restaurant. Ikya and I have always been curious about the row of restaurants that we pass through every time we go home. We keep on saying to try, but we never have, so I decided to take her to one of the restaurants for our anniversary.

 

Chesa Bianca is a Swedish restaurant - whose cuisine we both have never tried/heard from before. It was exciting that both of us didn't know what to expect. Upon entering the restaurant, it felt really cozy and clean. The walls were lined with wood, typical of a Swedish resto in Sweden? I guess. It felt very European in short.

 

What we ate.

 

Free appetizer from the chef! Thank you :)

This dish was mainly just cheese! with potatoes, carrots, and pickles on the side. The cheese was good, but it was a weird combination for us Filipinos.

This was another cheese inspired dish. Ham with melted cheese on top with an egg. It was your basic ham and cheese and egg sandwich without the bread. Just kidding, it was a little more than that. A bit salty, but it was good.

Stroganoff!? This was our favorite dish of the night. Pasta with whiteface and beef strips. The beef was good and so was the sauce. Who knew Swedish pasta was good.

Our drinks! Iced tea and mango juice.

Here we are in the "wooden" restaurant. Good ambience and great company makes for a delicious dining experience. Love you ikya. <3

Verdict:

- Good date restaurant if you're both into cheese. 

- A bit pricey.

- Service is great.

- We might go back for more cheese inspired dishes, but not that we crave for it that much. Maybe if we feel a bit adventurous. They say the cheese fondue here is good.
