The Earth Hour celebration was made special by Doña Jovita Garden Resort by curating a new dinner menu for their guests. As soon as everyone was gathered in their seats, they happily attended to the orders right away.
The celebration started with food, of course. They served us a bowl of pumpkin soup, complete with a creamy consistency and crunchy bread bits on top. This was a great way to get us started for the flavors we were about to taste.
Next was this plate of fresh fish happily sitting on top of mashed potatoes, drizzled with the tastiest pesto sauce I have I ever tasted. I love that this dish was a healthy option but it was still big on flavors. Both the fish and potatoes were soft so the vegetables on top provided a bit of crunch for a variety of texture.
A more casual option that night was this plate of fish and chips with a side of tartar sauce. The batter covering the fish was fried to perfection thus resulting to a juicy and savory fish. The chips and sauce were just a bonus because the fish was definitely the star here.
Finally for the meatn(and cholesterol) lover in me enjoyed this plate of bagnet kare-kare. The name says it all people, two classic Filipino favorites combined in one dish? Heaven!
Finally, for pasta lovers you have these options: tinapa penne pasta , organic pesto, and shrimp scampi. Pasta is a must-have for every restaurant because Filipinos love noodles, so it was refreshing to have a quality taste of these dishes in a resort all the way in Laguna.
Curious what we had next? You’ll be surprised!
