If I were to choose
which Pampanga-based restaurant I want my family and friends to try, I’d say, K Cafe will be one
of my top choices. This restaurant is owned by Chef Caren Kwong and is
conveniently located at Nepo Quad, Angeles City.
Was fortunate to be one of the invited guests in their store in Nepo. Upon arrival, fellow
bloggers and I were greeted by the owner, Ms Caren. Staff were also friendly and
accommodating. Ambiance is awesome! Natural light comes in through the glass
windows, perfect place for catching up with friends or simply dining in with
family.
As for the food, let
the following pictures do the talking...
On the table:
Vietnamese Spring
Rolls 190php
Combination of pork
and shrimp wrap plus Nuoc Mam sauce
(fish sauce with lime juice, garlic and chillies). With lettuce,
basil and cilantro.
Roasted Bone Marrow 220php
This came as a
surprise. The roasted bone marrow tastes good when paired with baked
bread and salsa.
California Maki Salad 200php
Fresh green salad and
mango with an interesting Mayo-Wasabi dressing.
Asian Gambas 220php
Anything that has
fresh prawns in it, I eat. Thumbs up! hehe!
Salmon Sisig 250php
Sisig is undeniably
one of the best Kapampangan dishes. But this is a healthier version.
Bulalo Steak 260php
Another interesting
dish, and quite surprisingly delish. Paired with veggies and baked baby
potatoes.
Iberian Chicken 225php
Chicken’s not
necessarily fried, but more of poached in oil so the flavor is still locked in
then herbs and spices were added.
Jambalaya Pasta 210php
Did I mention that
anything with prawns/shrimps, I eat? But what I like about this dish more is
that it is a bit spicy and creamy. Yum!
Braised Pork Belly with Ramen Egg 250php
Rice, rice, more rice
please?
Now, let’s move on to
my favorite part... Desserts!
Dulce De Leche
Turtle Mousse
Sizzling Apple
Cheesecake 180php
This, I should say, is
the best dessert I’ve ever tasted. Playful mix of flavor will leave you more than satisfied.
Thank you, K Cafe!

ReplyDeleteDefinitely bookmarking this for my next Pampanga food trip! I'm pescetarian, so I'm happy to see seafood options on the menu (especially salmon sisig!).
ReplyDeleteWow, your photos made me hungry. I think the price is okay for its serving size. I'll bookmark this restaurant so I can try it when I'm in Pampanga. Thanks for your nice review!

Hmmmm I haven't been to Pampanga ever but if I do, I will definitely try K-cafe. I also love how they arrange / design their food. It actually pleases my eyes :)
ReplyDeleteI always make the mistake of going through food posts at the oddest hour. It's now 3am and after seeing your picture, hungry as hell haha.
ReplyDeleteI love Viet foods so the first picture caught my attention. Would love to check this place if I happen to pass by Quad Nepo. But what exactly is their food niche? I see unusual combinations.
ReplyDeleteYUM!!!
ReplyDeleteThe combinations are quite unusual. However, they look palatable and, best of all, affordable. Will definitely try this when we pass by Pampanga.
ReplyDeleteWhoooo! fooooooood! Your post, the sumptuous food made me oh so hungry! ahhhh!
ReplyDeleteI love the presentation of the food, instagrammable so to speak. I would love to try the roasted bone marrow, it looks so appetizing.
