RE: Kim's Taste #30: Lunch at Allegro Restaurant in Maribago Bluewater Resort and Spa

Ah, you have a Kim's Taste Series! You had me at Kare-Kare, it is one of my favorite Filipino dishes and I would eat it 7 days a week. At 690 it is pricey for the quantity they've provided. I also prefer the veggies drowning in peanut sauce where I couldn't tell the difference between the banana heart and the meat and each bite is a surprise hehe. Perhaps it's because that was how I was used to eating it growing up. Great presentation though.

The choco coffee moist cake looks yummy, even for a non-dessert lover, I'd order it and probably split/share it with someone.

😂 Deconstructed kare-kare. You can really distinguish the bokchoy from the banana heart. I think we have the same version of kare-kare that we know.

That choco-coffee moist cake is the redeeming factor. I love it!

Deconstructed kare-kare, so posh! 😅 When you mentioned:

"This review is not a mockery of the restaurant, rather a mockery of our poor and unsophisticated taste. Rich people eat with their eyes. "

This brought me back to a remark from a former Cabin Crew friend who served First Class Passengers. She noticed that the richest clients she had onboard only ordered a glass of water and they didn't eat. I don't know what the reason behind this is perhaps they already ate at the First Class Lounge prior to the flight. Somehow the quantity of food on the plate served in high-end establishments has some relation to their light eating habits?

Probably this. They're trying to maintain their calorie intake. Whereas the poor doesn't care about calories. They want to be satisfied.

Poor - Quantity
Middle Class - Taste and Quantity
Rich - Presentation

You've unraveled the mystery 😄 I like how you've defined the class distinction.

😂😂😂

I have an idea, I'll write that on a post-it note and attach it to our fridge door lol 😅😂🤣

Hahaha! Nice one! And make a post about it. 🙈
