One Saturday night last October, hubby and I had dinner with our high school friends at the much-hyped restaurant Blackbird in Makati. All four of us had gotten married back in 1999, just weeks apart (we even went to the US for our honeymoons together!) so they said this would be our advanced 15th anniversary dinner lol! (Our anniversary is actually isn't until next month but hey we wanted a reason to dine here!)
We had reservations at Blackbird for 8pm and we arrived on time. Still we were asked to wait at the bar area where we were given some cold water and complimentary seasoned popcorn because they said they needed time to prepare our table.
After maybe 10 minutes, we were asked to proceed to the second floor where a table for four was waiting for us.
I must say, Blackbird's reputation for miniscule servings and high prices is very much deserved. We ordered appetizers first, starting with these Crab Cakes, Green Apple, Radish, and Mustard Slaw (P560, pictured above). Three whole pieces the size of meatballs, wow! Yes they were delicious and they used real crabmeat (not kani sticks) but lol, we had to split them into portions because there were 4 of us. Read more »
