I bought a voucher for 2 for Beso Cucina
Vinoteka at Deal Grocer. The restaurant
is located at UG/F Bonifacio High Street Central, East Superblock, 7th Ave. corner
29th St., Fort Bonifacio, Taguig.
The restaurant has a bar outside. We were greeted by the waiter upon
entering and then, we were led to our table. The waiter asked for my voucher and a valid ID.
After a few minutes the 2 glasses of iced tea were
served and while waiting for the appetizer we heard a bit of a commotion. A
middle aged lady with her kids was arguing with the waiter then the manager of
the restaurant because apparently she wanted to take out her leftover food. The
manager explained to her that the food is for dine in only. I guess the lady
failed to read the voucher that all food and drinks are strictly for dine in
only. She didn’t have to make a scene. Her younger son was hiding his face with
his hands in shame. Nevertheless, the manager was accommodating and gave in to
the lady’s wishes. Later on, the manager went to our table to apologize for the
unfortunate incident with the middle-aged lady.
Soon after that, our appetizers were
brought in. The grilled sardines with rock salt, lemon and parsley was good (my
favorite) and the Spicy pork meat balls had a tinge of Indian spices. As for
the main course, we had the Ox tail and White Bean Fabada on Fideo and Olive
oil it was delicious. For dessert, we had Crema Catalana. All of these were
purchased at 695 Pesos. We ordered Apple juice, Café latte and English
breakfast separately since it was not included from the deal.
The
restaurant’s service was prompt and the staff was courteous. It was a superb
dining experience at Beso Cucina Vinoteka. Thumbs up!
