After staying over at Annika's house in Loyola Heights for a week, Monique decided to treat her cousin to dinner at Fat Skillet Cafe along Katipunan Road in the Blue Ridge area. It was our first time to try the place--the restaurant is located in a non-assuming building, but the name itself connotes some kitchen savvy and we were not mistaken.
My order of beef calderetta was superb. Just the right meat gooiness combined with that nicely-livered tomato sauce. The kids had pasta; Annika ordered Hungarian, while Monique took the Fat Skillet special (shrimp toppings) and both came in al dente, just right to the bite!
My sister and her hubby took prawn fritters and garlic pork steak, which were also winners--in taste, consistency, temperature and presentation. The best part of it all is that you can come in with a P250 to P400 per head spend in mind and still, you can have some good meals with your budget.
The place also serves some foreign beer brands, and I guess it is an established hangout of college kids from the Katipunan and QC areas. Interiors are clean, simple and cozy. While there was only 1 food attendant, she was very efficient and attentive to all our needs.
