"Good Food. Good Company."

Another restaurant has opened its doors and is now ready to engage in the growing food industry in Cebu. Thanks to my dear friend, we were able to take part in the official launch of Brique. Maybe, you are also curious as to why they chose this name. I was too. As what I have read on their page, they view each task as individual bricks working together to give you an experience that is as solidly built as any wall. With that, they assure every customer to have a good dining experience from the moment they enter their doors to the moment they step out again. Details, even the smallest ones, are given importance. So, does it make sense? Yes? Yea. Cool name, well thought.

The Location.

Located along Salinas Drive, Lahug (beside Chikaan).

Operating Hours: Mon - Fri: 10:00 AM - 11:00 PM

Sat - Sun: 7:00 AM - 11:00 PM.

With my ever talented model^^

This is where they show off their wines.

That ladder will take you to the 2^nd floor. Seriously? Nah, just kidding.^^

The Menu.

They have a wide selection of dishes and beverages. For the complete menu, please click HERE.

Our Order.

A new way to enjoy one of Filipino's favorites, Halo-Halo.

Playful name, isn't it? Gaaaahddd. I'm still counting my calories.

Lechon Belly Sandwich @ PHP 195

Lechon belly with Caesar dressing on a Kaiser roll. Served with potato chips.

A healthier way to have Lechon. Maybe, it was really intended to be healthy that's why it was a bit bland and kinda dry. I wouldn't have enjoyed it without the ketchup. Sarsa, puhlease? :) No worries with the meat though, it was tender.

Carbonara @ PHP 120

Bacon, mushroom and grated Parmesan in a rich cream sauce.

Creeaaamyyy.

Italian Sausage & Mushroom @ PHP 230

Homemade Italian Sausage with mushrooms in truffle-infused cream sauce.

This was the best for us. The Italian Sausage gave a distinct flavor to the dish.

 Aaannd, it was on them. ^^

They had this promotional offer "Pay with a Post" on their launching day wherein diners will post a photo of their orders on FB or Instagram with the hashtag #BriqueMenu and the most expensive dish you ordered will be on the house. Well, well, well. Should have known earlier. Still, we had a good time and we went home with happy and heavy stomachs, as heavy as bricks. :) Thank you BMK for that wonderful treat and looking forward to another relaxing chow moment in your place.

"If I lose myself tonight, it'll be by your side."

Since Pizza Republic rings a bell, I'm singing that song. teehee :) Okaaay, allow me to share this addition to my PIZZA chronicles. The team decided to have not just a double but a triple celebration. First, the team's success of a month's labor with an outstanding attendance. Second, the team leader's birthday. Third, the birthday of the one and only guy of the team. That's a whole lot to celebrate, right? This was not the original plan but due to ineluctable circumstances, we ended up having this humble gathering at Pizza Republic. Well, sometimes the greatest moments in life come from the unexpected or unplanned ones. Also, you need not to have a grandiose celebration to make a special moment, the real connection from the people around you is what matters most.

Pizza Republic Pick + Mix by Giuseppe Genco is one of the most popular food destinations by now because of it's unique approach on how to enjoy your pizza. I guess it's a first in Cebu so people are really giddy to try this new attraction. Pizza Republic operates from SUN - THURS : 11 AM - 10 PM and from FRI - SAT : 11 AM - 11 PM. It is located along Salinas Drive, Lahug next to the newly opened Islands Pasalubong. You'll never miss it.

The Location.

The Menu.

For only P 245, you can already enjoy a 10" pizza which you can customize at your heart's desire but with over 60 toppings at hand which might boggle your mind, they also have their best combos. But! What's the sense, right? Gotta get  your creative minds working guys. Pizza is pizza. #justsaying hehehe

What to do?

I used to play a lot of cooking games and this! is simply like my games. Let's get started. :D

First, the dough.

Second, white sauce or red sauce? Or just enjoy both.

Fourth, meat toppings...

and more toppings!

Fifth, choose to be healthy with these toppings.

Sixth, add more flavor with these herbs and spices.

You can also finish it up by drizzling olive oil, pesto, barbecue sauce, anchovies on top.

Then, off you go to the brick oven my dear pizzas!

Finally, get it for free! kidding. Pay and wait for your number to be called.

Meanwhile, let's play BINGO. awww. hehehe
