The Gourmet Couple

This is one of the most memorable lines in the classic “Oliver Twist”. Based on the Charles Dickens novel Oliver Twist is about an orphan boy who runs away from a workhouse and meets a pickpocket on the streets of London. Don’t you worry folks, there’s no thieving here. hehehe.

Before we watched “Transformer” in the silver screen and while waiting for the next screening (Yup, Ayala Town Center in Alabang won’t allow you to get inside the movie house while the movie is still ongoing, a sort of guaranteed seat), our attention was caught by this small stall called “Oliver Super Sanwiches”. Ahh, i bet you know what we did exactly. And indeed, they are the best sandwich i’d ever eaten. We ordered a Clubhouse Sandwich and it was a great delight to the eyes and to our stomachs for that matter. There are lots of sandwiches to choose from. From the exotic to the most lean sandwich you can have.

Oliver’s Super Sandwiches is located in the Cinema area of Ayala Town Center in Alabang, Muntinlupa.

Hi. As promised we celebrated my wife’s birthday at Pier One located at Buendia Ave. in front of World Trade Center in Roxas Blvd. Actually, Begaverde, just beside it, was our first choice but since it was closed that night, we settled at Pier One.

The place is dark but cozy. Tables are in the front and back porch. You can stay inside where the band is playing. It was Live Wire performing that night. Nice husky voices from the vocalists belting out funky and groovy music.

There are lots of food choices to choose from. From pulutan to sinigang. We ended up having Grilled Salmon in herbal sauce for me and fish and chips and clubhouse sandwich for my wife. I like their Grilled Salmon topped by different herbs and spices (can’t identify one). Though it’s quite unusual to eat a fish with a rice in a dark place. Tinikin pa naman me. My wife contend herself with the chips and clubhouse while enjoying the band.

It was a fine dine-in we got there. We just stayed for half an hour after we’re done before we left the place. Well, it’s definitely a place to go after an a day in the office. Cool music and great food awaits you there.

So, turn your plates. Till we meet again!

Bonapetite!!!
