Italiannis Now Serving Awesome Breakfast Menu in Selected Branches

We all know Italianni's Restaurant as one of the restaurants managed by the Bistro Group. Known for their honest-to-goodness authentic Italian dishes, only a few know that a few branches actually serves an awesome array of breakfast menu. I have come to know this myself only after I got invited for an FMU (foodie meet up) by Zomato. 

Our moms had always been right, NEVER SHOULD WE SKIP BREAKFAST. Simply because it's the most important meal of the day. And thus, you deserve the best that Italianni's has to offer. In this fast paced society we live in, a hearty, wholesome, healthy power breakfast is all we need to lift our moods and providing you the energy and zest you need throughout the day.

Amidst all the hype of all the fancy new brunch places popping up around the CBD, we thought to bring you a list of Italianni's Breakfast Specials which will only be available for a limited engagement (So hurry guys and try it out while it lasts!). Oh, and btw, they are only made available at the following Italianni's branches: Italianni's Greenbelt, Bonifacio High Street, and Vista Mall in Laguna. 

Here's what you can expect from their Chef's Breakfast Kitchen Menu:

* All meals come with complimentary tea or coffee.

Breakfast Porkchop (Php395)

Italianni's Breakfast Porkchop

Porkchop marinated in Italianni's choice of herbs and spices, seared to perfection and served with egg. You can have a choice of pairing it with either garlic rice or potato hash. It had that charred taste with a delicious basting and it was very flavorful that there's no need to reach for a dipping sauce.

Fried Eggplant with Sausage (Php365)

Italianni's Fried Eggplant with Sausage

A classic Filipino dish, fried eggplant toppled with sausage, pickled onion and oregano served with garlic rice. Eggplant or Aubergine goes perfectly well with  the sausages. And as they say in the vernacular, "mapapadami ang kain mo ng kanin." [You will be asking for more cups of rice]. Even if you're not a fan of eggplant, you will certainly like this dish, that's for sure. 

Smoked Capocollo Ham with Avocado (Php350)

Italianni's Smoked Capocollo Ham with Avocado

Fresh from the oven sourdough bread topped with capocollo ham, sliced avocado, poached egg and arugula. Capocollo or coppa is a traditional Italian and Corsican pork cold cut (salume). It is similar to the more widely known cured ham or prosciutto, because they are both pork-derived cold-cuts that are used in similar dishes. This open faced sandwich is one of my favorites among the Italianni's Chef Breakfast Kitchen menu. The sourdough was very chewy and I didn't know the ham will go well with the avocado slices on top. It's really very filling and I'll certainly recommend it for those people on-the-go who wanted to grab a bite but will still have a healhy and filling meal for breakfast. 

Goodah's Tapa Festival Food Review

Goodah Tapa Festival introduces Tapa Flakes, Tapa Bacon and the Original Tapsilog

We were among the selected bloggers who were invited to have a taste of Goodah’s Tapa Festival where they have introduced three exciting tapa plates for loyal consumers to try. Of course, there’s nothing like having Beef Tapa, sinangag and itlog or better known as tapsilog [marinated beef strips with garlic fried rice and sunny side up egg], it is after all, a very Filipino breakfast staple. In fact, for most people, they’d love having tapsilog any time of the day that’s why it’s no longer a surprise when you’ll see an open 24/7 Tapsilog joints.

We all love to wake up with a warm cup of our favorite coffee in the morning. In fact, some of us couldn't even kick off their day without having some caffeine fix. And because McDonald's understands what every Filipino coffee aficionados like to help them get through all the hustle and bustle that awaits them each day, our fellows at McDonald's have a special treat for loyal customers. This will keep them ready, energized, and hopeful for a day filled with endless possibilities and opportunities. When it comes to one’s cup of Joe, flavorful and affordable make up the characteristics of the perfect blend that would give Pinoys that extra boost.

Big on Breakfast: Why You Should Eat in the Morning?

Mom always told us to eat our breakfast. And, now that we're mommies, we hear ourselves saying the same thing to our kids. Why is breakfast so important anyway? 

Breakfast improves concentration, problem-solving ability, mental performance, and memory. 

It helps in weight control since it stimulates your metabolism and boosts your energy for the rest of the day.

It promotes good eating habits by preventing you from being too hungry by midday so you can avoid over eating later at night.

It allows you to eat healthier. Most breakfast foods contain significant amounts of vitamins C and D, calcium, iron and fiber. 

So remember, to keep ourselves healthy and energized that will help us last the entire day, don't skip breakfast because it really is the most important meal of the day.
