Corazon Filipino Hispano Cuisine, Shangri-La East Wing

My sister, her colleague, and I were looking for a new restaurant to try, one weekend when we went shopping. We are fans of Filipino food, so were were quite intrigued with Corazon, a Filipino-Spanish restaurant located in Shangri-La East Wing.

Corazon Restaurant at Shangri-La East Wing

I've seen Crisostomo in Eastwood, and Elias in Robinsons Magnolia. I believe Corazon is from the same chain of restaurants, given its EspaƱol theme. Corazon is elegantly decorated chandeliers and paintings on the bold red walls.

Mejillones (P375.00)
New Zealand baked mussels with garlic and cheese

This. This may just be the biggest, cheesiest plate of mussels I've ever seen. The pieces of mussels are plump and chewy, while the cheese and garlic add a rich, salty taste to the dish. This is a must try!

If you check out what's on the plate - it's a very thick layer of of rock salt! It looks nice, but I feel that this is quite wasteful, even if salt is relatively inexpensive.

Ciudad Real (P395.00)
Lechon kawali with laing

When we ordered this dish, we didn't know it was already a bestseller. Imagine, your healthy greens topped with creamy, frothy coconut milk, with chunks of crispy pata. We loved this one as well!

Garlic Rice - 2 cups (P80.00 per cup)

Of course, we couldn't miss ordering rice. There's nothing special about the rice. This one's quite pricey, but the serving is huge.

What we've tried was just a preview on the dishes of Corazon. We were happy with the ones we ordered, and we would definitely come back to try more of their dishes.
