A Mother's Day Dinner at Nectar from Open Rice promo

   Got an FB notice from Open rice on the morning of May 13, 2012 (Mother's Day) the I won a Dinner for 2 at Nectar  and it was such a nice treat actually.

 Nectar Restaurant located at Ground floor of Cattleya Building in the corner of Benavidez and Salcedo St., Makati City.

Operating hour is from : 11am- 2pm and 6-10pm.
Cuisine :  Mediterrenean cuisine

                        The interior of Nectar Building very cozy and chic.

    The table set up wherein every table has a bottle of wine but in case you don't drink just set it aside.

                   The wine bottle and the reservation they made for us.

     The Mother's Day Menu price is P2,750.00 for a 7 course dinner meal. Actually the chef said the meal is good for 4-6 people.

               The Unlimited Ice Tea in a cute St. Paul glass price P120.00

    Our appetizer: The Grill Chorizo with Queso Belprado. To place the chorizo and the quezo on  top the cracker is super delicious and they compliment each other quite well.

  Cinnamon Apple pie salad with Rasberry Vinagrette. The salad has walnut in it which added the crunch  and bits of apple and  cinnamon that add sweetness to the salad. This salad is one of my favorite.

   Paella Colonial. This is the first time that I get to eat a real Paella with mussel, chorizo, green beans and green olives. Everything is great in the Paella, the one thing I hate is the olives never like it since it's a bit salty.

   Beef Stew Provocale. Delicious with a touch of crunch from the potato string, The herb they use are pepper, carrot and onion all compliment their flavor and taste to the beef stew  and if you happen to go to Nectar Restaurant  try this dish as you won't regret it.

      Fish in mimosa salad. The topping of the fish is compose of carrots, egg yolk, pickle and egg white. The fish they use is the cream dory which has a soft texture. I have made this dish during my younger year when my aunt first serve it in our family gathering but instead of the Cream dory she uses the bangus.

     Chocolate Truffles and Chocolate spring roll.  Oh so chocolatey and the spring roll was the first to get eaten up first.

   Their refrigerated section were you can also choose their other dessert.
