Pepper Lunch!

   Posted by: starlitgrove   in Daily Grind

I’ve been waiting for the opening of Pepper Lunch ever since

 posted about winning the franchise for the Philippines. Pepper Lunch is a Do-It-Yourself “fast steak” restaurant originally from Japan. Think yummy, juicy, yet affordable (read: not fine dining price) steaks served on a hot (iron) plate. And it’s available here in Manila starting tomorrow, May 16 at the Power Plant Mall Food Court/Concourse. It’s right in front of Rustan’s Fresh supermarket, where Shakey’s used to be.

I planned on going Saturday, but through the kindness of

, I was able to preview Pepper Lunch with Fiona Wednesday night. We both had the Cut Steak and Hamburger Steak Combo with Coke Zero. The meal was so filling. The hamburger steak was so juicy!

Are you hungry now? XD Don’t just take myword for it, go to Rockwell tomorrow and try it out yourselves. Go go go!

 posted to order dessert, so Fiona and I got both the molten chocolate cake and the vanilla crepe cake. Pepper Lunch’s

 told us to cut the molten chocolate cake in the middle. Chocolate lava flowed out. So sinful! This will surely satisfy anyone’s chocolate craving.

I made inroads on the vanilla crepe before taking a picture. Sorry, low EQ, especially when it comes to food! Heehee. This dessert is served cold, and is my favorite of the two. It has just the right amount of sweetness, and I think it’s perfect when paired with coffee.

I admit, I was star struck at meeting

 in the flesh. She and her husband Jeroen were so kind and gracious. We got invited to next day’s lunch, but we had to decline because our office is in Eastwood pa. If only we worked in the Makati area!

Taken by Miss Cecile (who was camera-shy that night) as a remembrance:

Thank you again, Grace, Miss Cecile, and Jeroen!

See you again at Pepper Lunch!
