Dine In: Stacy's, Burgos Circle

Blogger's Note: This post is long overdue.

Hello again!

First off, I'd like to thank whoever is reading my blog for doing so. My Ally's All-Day Breakfast Place and Cool Beans Cafe posts have reached a ton of hits [shameless plugging right there]. I didn't even know people are aware this blog exists. Haha.

I'm trying to blog as much as I used to despite my very busy schedule. Because of my schooling, it's becoming next to impossible. I try to write as soon as I can 'cause I tend to forget the experience, but school beckons, so my blogging always ends up giving way.

You have to know that this post came in installments. Haha. I started writing mid-September and I'm able to publish this only now. So I'll understand if you'll think this one's outdated. 

Anyway, I had dinner with my cousins last month. We try to see each other as often as we can to catch up and plan our adventures. We decided to check out this much-talked about dining spot in Burgos Circle - Stacy's. I've been invited by a friend to see their Capitol Hills branch a few months back, but I've never taken him up on his offer. Now I wish I did. 


To get to Stacy's, we took a cab from Ayala. But we found out later on that you can take the BGC Shuttle - East Route if you want to save on cab fare. If you're coming from the north, you can take the MRT to Ayala, then get on the BGC Shuttle from there. That'll probably reduce your fare budget by half.






Although it was a Saturday night, it was raining so the place wasn't as crowded as expected. In fact, there were quite a few empty tables. But it turned out to be a good thing 'cause we got to choose a table on the upper floor. 






While waiting for our order, one of the waitresses placed this on our table. It's their own version of an appetizer - pretzels, marshmallows and popcorn. But I'd tell you not to get too excited about the pretzels and the mallows. As we emptied the mug, we found mostly just popcorn at the bottom.

Now I have to apologize 'cause I can't seem to remember what we ordered. Haha. I have pictures to remind me, but I can't remember exactly what they're called. I tried searching the Net for Stacy's menu, but most of them haven't been updated yet. So I'm just gonna try my best to provide you with the description. Again, I don't know what they're called, so if you decide to try Stacy's dishes, you'll have to ask their staff for the correct dish name.


Here's their version of Bacon and Mushroom Carbonara. I wasn't able to taste it, but according to my cousin Nicole who ordered this one, it's more Pinoy than Italian, with just the right amount of white sauce sweetness.


This one's their Adobo Flakes. I believe it's a mix of chicken and pork. For the usual adobo flakes, it wasn't as crispy or crunchy as we expected. But it tastes good when you add in some vinegar. Also, be warned that the rice serving is bigger than it looks.


I was the one to order this sandwich, and I have to say it was perfect! I super loved these ham and cheese slices in between French Toasts. They go really well with the strawberry jam. And the chips and dip didn't hurt either.


My cousin Kim ordered these Buffalo Wings. I think she said they're more sweet and tangy than spicy. If I remember correctly, they come in threes so you'll feel really full after finishing a plate. Plus points for the heart-shaped serving of rice.


So there. I realized that it's really important to blog as soon as possible. Because when I don't, I tend to forget what to write and worse, I get bored and lazy. I almost decided not to post this anymore, but I figured I didn't want the pictures I took to go to waste.

I still hope you enjoyed reading this entry. 'Til next time! :)
