Chef & Brewer is only walking distance from our place, but I’ve never been there before. Last Friday was the first time I set foot inside this restaurant, and that’s courtesy of hubby. It’s good that we got there a little early, 8pm, because by 9pm, the place was jampacked. My husband, who’s been there before with friends and officemates, says the place is always full of people every weekends. They go here to chill out, enjoy good music, and hang out with family and friends. It’s a happy place, especially when the band is playing.

We had C&B Oysters, Gambas al Ajillo and Beef Salpicado.

Hubby loves oysters, so he ordered these. We didn’t get tired of eating these because they’re delicious!

These spicy and tasty prawns were perfect appetizers.

The beef was tender, but it tasted a bit bland to me. I also expected more beef chunks because of the hefty price of this dish.

The mangoes they served were naturally sweet, and we really liked that.
The prices of food at Chef & Brewer are a bit expensive, but everything is worth it, especially if you’re spending time and money with the love of your life. I would love to come back to this place again soon for another date night with hubby.

This is a cool place to chill, relax and have a few beers, good food too!
yummy gambas! i want 🙂
i had dinner here a couple of times–the first time was my former boss’ dinner party.:p my old company also had a unit in the same building so it was an easy choice when we had expats from HK. the gambas is mouthwatering.:p
such a cool place for oldies like me with bands that play old music. I want to try their C&B oysters! It looks yummy!
sounds like it was a great date night! cheers! 🙂
