Still on our "Weekend Getaway"...
The dinner:
 |
| CRU steakhouse, Marriott Hotel Manila |
The outfitey:
 |
| Sparkle and shine! |
The setting:
 |
| Dinner for two |
I'm glad Tom and I decided to have dinner early. We had the place all to ourselves for a few minutes and it was the perfect time to take photos too! Haha!
 |
| Great wall of fire! CRU's impressive show kitchen. |
 |
| Levelling: CRU's meat humidifier. This is where they age their meats. |
The Chef:
 |
| Meet the talented CRU Chef Bryan Jimenez |
The foodam:
 |
| CRU's signature bread: Parmesan, pesto, and tomato bread served with herb butter and goat cheese with pink peppercorns ( I love pink peppercorns! |
 |
| Chef Bryan created an appetizer for Tom and me: Octopus Ceviche, Tuna Tartar w/ Avos, and their version of Shrimp Cocktal |
 |
| Mushroom soup with truffle oil |
The pièce de resistance:
Menu: “CRU signature super prime Wisconsin US beef. This beef is aged for 21 days, well marbled, full of flavour and butter tender”
 |
| Australian Aged Wagyu Ribeye This is heaven on a platter. Chef Bryan chose the best meat for my main course! Wagyu meat is striking because of its marbling and is a succulent delight! |
 |
| Cooked to perfection |
 |
| Tom ordered the beef tenderloin |
 |
| Our side dishes: Whipped potatoes, roasted marble potatoes, roasted herb pumpkin, and creamed spinach. Tom and I loved the marble potatoes and roasted pumpkin. We also love the cast iron mini casserole pots! |
 |
| Valrohna or bust! Marriott Hotel's Executive Chef Miek Brammer (you will "meet" him on my next post) concocted something special for us for dessert: Chocolate Valrohna Fondue — it's a decadent yet fun treat! |

Our dinner at CRU was probably one of the best dates we've had in a long time. We had fun being ourselves, joking around, eating a fabulous meal, drinking wine, and sharing a dessert. The ambience was romantic and the service was impeccable. We recommend that you guys book a reservation. You'll have a grand time!
Tom and I would like to give a shoutout to the friendly staff of CRU and special thanks to Marriott Hotel's Director of Food & Beverage Mathias Widor! I love all your "tomato" jokes! Haha!
