Savoy très bien!

A new French restaurant in town and it's très, très bien! Savoy, (I'm assuming is named after a French town in southeastern France.) is a reasonably priced French restaurant in Kalayaan St. Makati, Tel. 8965667. See the dishes I tried and enjoyed below. I'm planning to go back with my daughter Alexandra, she also shares my passion for good food. I've been known to disappoint her at times. I'm confident she will like this one though.

This is a photo my cheeky wife Tessa took of me while reading the menu. I didn't realize my mouth was open. Of course she took the photo first, then only after did she politely ask me to close my mouth.

Moules a la creme, a MUST try!

Tournedos Rossini, a tenderloin steak topped with pate foie gras. Need I say more?

Potatoes Dauphinoice

Pepper Steak Madagascar

Chocolate Mousse

My wife was in National Book Store with my sister-in-law Tina and they sent me a snapshot of the latest poster of the National Book Store Philippine Publication Best Sellers Top 10 list. I am number 4 in the list of the top 10 and the number 1 of the cookbooks! Thanks to all of you for trusting in my recipes! Christmas is definitely a season of blessings.
