7th Food Tasting: Purple Dish (Again!)

I actually forgot about this (sorry!) but while browsing for pictures in my memory card I saw the pictures so here I am blogging about our experience.

We had our second food tasting with Purple Dish during a bridal fair in SM Megamall. We already have caterer then why food taste again? for free lunch (why not!) but more importantly we need to be sure that we made the right decision because Purple Dish is one of our shortlisted caterer.

Lets proceed..
I love the lights and the Twig Tree set-up

A closer look of the twig tree (I super love this)

Per chef, this set-up is already an upgrade (ouch) but cannot tell me how much but promise this set-up is really nice. (^_^)

Cutie Flower Centerpiece


we now go to the food


Appetizers:

Circulo Tofu - same as my previous post I love this! I believe this is a must have to all Purple Dish client. yum! 

Sardine Bruschetta - bread is soft, the sardine is not spicy (I'll like this if this is spicy). This is also good but since I do not eat sardine I can pass on this one

Bacon wrap asparagus? Sorry I cannot remember the name but this is Love! I love bacon (who doesn't?) I am biased on this one because of the bacon thing. 


Mango Salsa Salad

French Onion Soup

Mango Salsa Salad - same as my previous post, I love the salad but I have to set aside the onions and red peppers.

French Onion Soup - Again, this is love. I do not eat onions but this soup doesn't taste like onions at all. All I can taste is the creamyness of the soup.

Now we go to the main courses:


Verdict (Clockwise)

Pork Bourguignon w/ Broccoli, Carrots & Fresh Button Mushroom - Since this is the newest(new menu compared to my previous FT) I tried this first but I did not taste something special in it. I found this on a bland side.

Chicken Stuffed Ragu - This is also new but because I am biased on white sauce I Loved this dish. I will choose this to be my Chicken dish if ever I get PD as caterer

Baked Norwegian Salmon in Lemon Butter Sauce - Need to say more? This is LOVE (as in all caps) Juicy and yummy! make sure to add this on your list PD brides.

Beef & Veggie Lasagna - Again, on the heavy side. I have to set aside the veggie again but this is also good. *yummy*

10 Hour Slow-Roast US Beef Belly with Cheesy Garlic Potato Marble - This is Love (^_^) beef is tender and juicy! You can choose between Caldereta Sauvignon Sauce and Mushroom Wine Sauce but I decided to try both (half/half) but I love the Mushroom wine sauce better,


As for the Desserts, sorry I am unable to take picture (super excited to eat) but the choices is basically the same as my previous post. We had the following

1. Bluer Than Blueberry Cheesecake - Love
2. Matcha Green Tea Cheesecake - Love
3. Vienne Canoli - Good
4. Bananarama - Like
5. Chocolate Truffles? - Good 
6. Strawberry Mousse Cheesecake - Like
7. Devil’s Food Cake - Good
8. Pistachio Sansrival - Love

Love = As you can see I am biased on cheesecakes, I admit PD's cheesecake is really Love specially the Bluer than Blueberry Cheesecake and the Sansrival is also Love.

Like = More than Okay but these are the items below the "Love" category.


Good = These are those desserts are just "Okay" 


These are just my personal verdict, Everyone has different taste and opinions.


Btw, Purple Dish now has a mobile bar. We were able to sample 2 of their drinks and it was good also (^_^)
