Dining Review

Ble Real Greek Food in BF

And we did it again!

My ladies who lunch (aka my pot luck group) found another restaurant that I am simply in love with! I LOVE Greek food, so Ble is an affordable answer to my Greek cravings!

Ble is located on Aguirre Avenue in BF Homes. It’s really close to the house and and easy to meet up at when I’m meeting the ladies for lunch. I can leave my house and be at the restaurant in less than 15 minutes if there isn’t any traffic. That leaves for more chikahan time with the girls!

Greek Salad (P190)

We can't have Greek food without a Greek Salad!

When my friends described the place to me they said not to wear anything “fancy” because we will smell like we were the ones doing the cooking. They really don’t mind it though, because they said that it’s super yummy and super affordable. (They are right on point with both of those statements.)

Dip Platter (P300)

I love all kinds of dip. This dip platter has a little bit of everything. Hummus, Babaganursh, Tzatziki, and Olives, served with large pita.

The restaurant is so tiny, that we took the whole main table for ourselves because we were four ladies. The table could fit six comfortably so I know I could take the family here if I just made reservations ahead of time. 

Moussaka (P150)

Moussaka is probably one of my favorites because it's so similar to Eggplant Parmesan. Owner Yanis has a different take on this dish by layering potato, eggplant, wagyu beef, tomato sauce and a thick later of bechamel.

The owner Yiannis, is super hands on. (As in super…) He was making the falafel while we were chatting the afternoon away…

Strawberry Yogurt Shake (P150) Chicken Souvlaki (P150)

Greek Strawberry Yogurt Shakes in the background with my Chicken Souvlaki front and center. This was so delicious. I didn't put my Souvlaki down until I was done with it. Full of different layers of flavor and sauces all complimenting the marinated chicken breast.

With all of this food…we were totally stuffed. But we never stuff ourselves so much that we don’t have room for dessert! This is what I love about this group of ladies 🙂 We like to eat, and luckily BF Homes has a ton of different restaurants to lunch and catch up.

Did someone say Baklava?

Baklava (P150)

Owner Ayse focuses on the desserts and sweets. She also takes orders for her baked treats during the holidays.

Don’t judge. We ordered three orders of these bad boys. YES. We did. And some take home too. And I don’t regret any of it. It was delicious. I was also a little excited to learn that they cater 🙂 Sometimes, it’s easier to just order…and when the food is this good you know your guests will be happy!

The Greek Coffee was already sweetened. If I was to order this again, I would order it without the sweetener because the Baklava was enough sweetness for me!

I was surprised to taste different spices mixed in with the coffee. I wasn’t quite sure if it was cinnamon or even nutmeg…I’ll ask Yiannis next time I go back for a visit.

Would I visit this place again? Absolutely. I will bring the kids too. We will call and make reservations (I suggest you do the same if you want to eat inside with the air conditioning at the big table) and we will all enjoy it. My boys were already asking why I didn’t take them there because they saw me editing my pictures…

Ok ladies...where are we eating next?

    I always see this when I bring my daughter to school. Sadly, it’s still closed since it’s always early morning when I drive by, and by the time it opens, my schedule’s filled up with other errands and work. Hoping to try this soon. 🙂

      Hi Guia! I didn’t realize you were also from the south? Look for Yiannis when you go 🙂 I’m sure you won’t have to look far. When we were there for our leisurely lunch he was in the kitchen making falafel (which I will try on my next visit) and bringing out the baklava from the oven that his wife lovingly prepared! They are such a hands on couple!

It’s December 1st! Is there anything more delic It’s December 1st!

Is there anything more delicious than the smell of Christmas and the new found freedom as we anticipate celebrating the holidays with our families again?

@festivalmall has hosted a series of musical shows since November 5th that include Ace Banzuelo and Silent Sanctuary. Check out Michael Pangilinan on December 10th, too!

With Santa visiting, Christmas parties, arts and crafts and lots of promos, you can even enter for a chance to win a Toyota Fortuner!

Best of all-I love it when the places we know give purpose to their celebrations. Thank you #FestivalMall for partnering with @dsapi1  this holiday season. 

Thank you for sharing all the different ways we can celebrate the holidays with you!

I have always been intimidated by Cornish Hens. Th I have always been intimidated by Cornish Hens. Through this learning exercise with @usapeecphl, I have learned a bit more about these little birds that have bigger breast parts, and thank you Chef @ivoryyat for showing me how easy it is to prepare Greek Lemon Roasted Cornish Hens with Roasted Potatoes.
 
Clean and fresh flavors are perfect for these smaller birds that are rich in protein with zero carbs. Try the recipe in the comments section. I’m sure you’d enjoy it as much as I did!
 
Interested in U.S. Cornish Hens? You can buy them in stores near you. #CornishHen #USCornishHen #PoultryPerfection #CookingWithUSPoultry #USPoultry #USAPEECPHL #ad
@gi.aventajado and I played with some of the @pura @gi.aventajado and I played with some of the @puratosph products that they sent over the other day. Ready to use Bavarian Cream made these Cream Puffs easier than ever. I think we have to figure out how to temper our couverture better…

@mommymundo always has a way of bringing together @mommymundo always has a way of bringing together just what we need, no matter the time of year. Loving these photos of my first boy that were snapped @expomom.

Anyone else thinking about #HolidayPhotos? I am not one of those moms that has it all together before Christmas. It’s usually a mad dash for us at the end of the year, but if it’s anything that the past few years has taught me, it’s that the little things are what makes the Christmas special.

Many of us haven’t been together with the extended family or even our immediate family in so long. That means it’s the perfect time to document.

@nextbymetrophoto will be hosting one last Christmas Marathon family photo shoot before the end of year. Check them out or shoot them a message. They have some cute set-ups.
****GIVEAWAY ALERT*** 10 things I LOVE about @sed ****GIVEAWAY ALERT***

10 things I LOVE about @sedahotels listed here and on FB!

1. Each property has a Signature Dish. If you can’t make it to Bacolod, you can still enjoy Chicken Inasal in any of their properties.

2. Clean Design. So easy to work and play in a space that is light, modern, and clean in design. 

3. Beautiful views. Every chance I got, I would sit outside at @straightupatseda. 

4. Spacious Rooms and Residence Stays. Staying in the Three Bedroom Premier was perfect for our family. 

5. Attentive Service. Everyone was pleasant and accommodating.

6. Centrally Located. If you are thinking of fun things to do in Makati and want a home base, Seda Residences Makati is near a few of the museums, parks, and malls.

7. Work with ease. Internet service is uninterrupted. Meeting rooms are available and easy to book.

8. Relax and Play. From mid-day tubbies with Gelli to, taking advantage of the pool, or the children’s room, the little girl had more than enough things to keep her busy!

9. #FamilyTime. Spending an extended amount of time outside our own space led to laughter, fun conversations, and opportunities to try new things. We were comfortable and rested in the space we were in, which meant more opportunities for us to connect.

10. Homegrown with a Purpose. A Filipino brand that understands the importance of both work and travel, each property is important to the city & province location. Environmentally aware by adopting Mayumi, a Philippine Bald Eagle. 🦅

Is there anything better than a stuffed turkey at Is there anything better than a stuffed turkey at this time of year? Whole turkeys require serious commitment to cook. #IYKYK But because U.S. Poultry is now available here in the Philippines, that also means preparing turkey is a tad bit easier.
 
Frozen U.S. turkey products are available and ready to cook for people who want to dabble with flavors for this bigger bird but aren't sure how.
 
Thank you to Chef @ivoryyat for putting together a medley of my favorite fall flavors. This combination of apples, sweet potatoes, and maple syrup perfectly compliment  the roasted turkey leg and remind me of flavors and scenes from back in New York. 
 
@usapeecphl l has the highest standards that follow USDA requirements which are certified safe before shipping to the Philippines. Get them in stores near you.
