Sentro 1771 First in Modern Filipino Cuisine

Want some Pinoy Cuisine ? Sentro 1771 is a must try for everyone that's love Filipino Food with a modern twist and taste. Sentro 1771 was located at Level 2, Greenbelt 3, Ayala Center, Makati and Serendra, Bonifacio Global City, Taguig. Situated in a very strategic place where middle/upper class people usually hang out and celebrate. We all know that we Filipino love to celebrate and in every celebration come's with tasty food and drinks. Sentro 1771 was the place to celebrate a casual dining experience with great atmosphere plus the old Pinoy style ambiance.  

Sentro 1771 can cater large number of people but always take note of the date/day you plan to visit because Sentro 1771 is one resto thats always have great number of people. This proves that Sentro 1771 was the first in Modern Filipino Cuisine that people love to come over and over again.  

Sentro 1771 have a very good service because you can always saw one waiter near you. Each waiter is very attentive and polite and I think each waiter came from great school. They are all well oriented with the resto delicacy and specialty and if you don't know what to order ask the waiter they will surely have some suggestion which depends on your food choices. Lastly,want to be a King and Queen well dine at Sentro 1771 just for one day.

 Here come's the best part of my Sentro 1771 experience the food and the dining part. Sentro 1771 offers one of the Pinoy's Favorite Sinigang na Baka or a Beef Stew over Tamarin but Sentro 1771 have their own version because they used corned beef for their sinigang. So tender and tasty beef with a bit kick of sour taste of tamarin and spicy taste of green chili with your favorite sinigang vegetable like gabi, kangkong, labanos and tomatoes.

That was the main dishes but before the sinigang na corned beef. A a plate of small ball thing was served for appetizer and they called it Fried Kesong Puti. What is kesong Puti? Kesong Puti came from carabao milk that usually came from province our Pinoy version of white cheese. Sentro 1771 added a twist to this Kesong Puti by coating and frying breadcrumbs until golden brown. Plus the addition of two dips a creamy garlic and a sweet chili guava sauce. I love the creamy garlic dip more than the chili guava sauce but some like the other way.

Next for appetizer a Fresh smoked fish spring rolls our simply Tinapa spring rolls. You will never know what inside of it until you ate it. Looks like a sushi but with a sushi Pinoy Style smoked bangus, salted egg, tomato and the green leafy vegetable partners with vinegar for taste. Best way to start your appetite going best starter with the Friend Kesong Puti.


Another Sentro 1771  best the Sisig made from Tofu for healthy version of our Pork Sisig. First class tofu season with soy sauce, mayonnaise, onion chives, diced onions and calamansi on top. This is a appetizer but as good for main dish best paired with some steamed rice.


We Pinoy are not satisfied without rice, Sentro 1771 offer lots of selection of rice steamed or the flavored one .Like, Sentro’s bagoong rice is a meal in itself. Rice fried with garlic and bagoong served with sliced and grilled macau chorizo and beef tapa and topped with omelet strips and mango strips. Sentro Rice is good for sharing 3-4 person which depend on appetite of the group.


More food for us and here comes the Crispy Pork Ribs a deep-fried baby back rips fingers served on the side with tamarind sauce. Your utensils was not required if you order this dish. Best ate with bared handed so you have to use your hands for best dining experienced. Just washed after you're done. One Pinoy tradition eating with bare handed the Best.

Another Sentro 1771 specialty was the Garlicky Adobo. At first when it was served I have no clue that was the Adobo. We all know that Pinoy  adobo must be a little bit black and season with soy sauce. Sentro Garlicky Adobo was lot like a mechedo for me. Garlicky adobo have lots of garlic on it  making it Garlicky and without soy sauce I think  Sentro used vinegar and lots of salt to create a distinct taste.

One of the main fish dishes of Sentro 1771 was the Rated GG. Galunggong fillets fried in garlic oil and topped with browned garlic. Taste like daing or dried fish with a little bit taste of Spanish sardines because of the oil. And I think why its named as rated GG because of the fish used and the way it was season not your ordinary GG.

On the right side was the Bangus and Eggplant torta. Your ordinary tortang talong with bangus taste like reyelnong bangus on eggplant.

 What would be a dinner without some refreshment, Sentro 1771 have lots of  option when in comes to refreshment. You can have sodas, bottled drinks, fresh fruit shakes and herbal tea. But for me Sago't Gulaman was the must try for first time dinner.Sentro sago't gulaman was unlimited and it's not just ordinary sago't gulaman because they used muscovado to sweetened it.  Taste like honey and I love it but drink moderately with unlimited refill you can be easily be full.

With all of the great food and unlimited sago't gulaman. I'm fully fulled and can't go on for dessert.
Sentro 1771 was my first Filipino restaurant I tried and want to came back to try some other Pinoy delicacy with Sentro twist.

Before going out you must try to used the comfort room and you will be please how clean and neat it was. Just take time to rest and appreciated what you have during your Sentro experience.

One of the neatest Comfort Room from a Restaurant.

Supersized Bulalo Cooked Off at SM Hypermarket Batangas

Every time I heard Bulalo on thing surely get into my mind "MASARAP AT MAINIT NA SABAW" . It's one of my comport food especially when the weather begins to turn cold. As the -ber months continue to get cooler because of Amihan, SM Hypermarket Batangas holds the Bulalo Supersized Cook- Off in an attempt to do something that has never been attempted before - to bring together several bulalo cooks and serve up the largest amount of delicious soup ever to be made in one are at one time over the Bulalo capital of the Philippines Batangas City.

Bulalo has always been the epitome of simplicity - it's just beef bones and vegetables, after all but the same time, it has a richness of flavor and intensity that send people into throes of enjoyment. Even people travel for hours just to get to a prime bulalo restaurant, and will often return to a favorite place over and over again to relive the experience. Batangas bulalo, in particular has been touted to be some of the most delectable fare around, the province being known for quality of its cattle.like me.

Bulalo also has many versions. Almost every cook that makes the dish cooks it in a certain way, adding their own touch to it and modifying it ever so slightly. Just like some of participants of the Supersized Bulalo Cook-Off namely Place of Mine Catering,Hot and Cold Cafe, Ginazel Catering, Le Elegancia, Siemen’s Canteen, Restaurant El Torro, Madelyn dela Pena/Lutong Bahay Karlos Place and Tapa Kalderate Atbp. Hence the second part of the Cook-off goals, other than setting a super-siezed record for the city of Batangas: to showcase the different varieties of bulalo and to find the best tasting one. Click here for more mouth watering bulalo pics

The Cook-off is one of the three components of the SM Hypermarket Master Chefs which began in July 2011. The two other events were a cooking marathon and kitchen makeovers. The marathon was made up of weekly cooking demos held in all stores for three months, and the kitchen makeovers awarded five lucky families with a newly redesigned kitchen furnished by SM Hypermarket and designed by PSID graduates.
At the end of the day, two groups will be announced as winners. The best tasting and most Number of bowls served category which Madelyn dela Pena/Lutong Bahay emerged as the group to have provided the most servings with a total of 165 servings. Each group were required to provide at least 50 servings weighing 100 grams per serving to the delight of the audience.


The winning group early celebrating their upcoming victory during the presentation.

For the best tasting bulalo three lucky judge must endured the high blood pressure and different taste of bulalo was Chefs Aries Cueto and JunJun Borlan Jr. with SM Hypermarket Assistant Manager Jun Lozada to judge the competition. The group with the best tasting Bulalo was Le Elegancia. Both winners will each get 25,000 pesos worth of SM gift certificates and a plaque of recognition from SM Hypermarket.

Batangas Bulalo was the second SM Hypermarket Supersized Challenges. The previous cookoff was held in Pampanga, and served up a whopping 1,775 plates of sisig. It remains to be seen if the cooks of Batangas can outdo the previous record. But even if they do, there are two record-breaking cook-offs to watch out for - Iloilo's Batchol Challenge which been held simultaneously with the Bulalo Cook-Off and the Upcoming Cebu's Bibingka Challenge on November 18.

I would like to say thank you to SM Hypermarket and Nomnom Club for the invite. Bulalo Cook-Off was blast with my fellow foodie bloggers.
