Krazy Garlic



This recent restaurant concept of the Bistro group is based on garlic as the common denominator of the prepared cuisine.  Krazy Garlic has been around for more than a year now, and we recently tried their Greenbelt branch with some of Vicky's friends.  Menu was interesting--an international collection of food with garlic--Krazy Garlic salad, Spanish style gambas, orange-garlic chicken wings, Baba Ghanoush, Vietnamese spring rolls, Zuppa di Mari, Szechuan chicken, Mongolian beef, and some grilled and pan-fried dishes.  The 40 cloves chicken was a good treat, and we were also happy with the Korean style garlic sesame beef.  Pizza and pasta dishes were also a welcome addition to our table, and it was a different experience from structured regional dining--our table spread was a motley of cuisines, mostly complementing, sometimes clashing with, each other.


Be prepared, however, to spend something like P800 per head if you want to enjoy the various cooking styles.  It's best when you visit with a big group so that food goes around to share.  If you are there as a couple, your bill would come out to much less than that but you can only taste one or two dishes.
