Food Review: The Frazzled Cook

VERDICT: 4 SPOONS for The Frazzled Cook.

I recently discovered this restaurant within the streets of San Juan, Manila named
The Frazzled Cook thru Deal Dozen. I love eating out and the thrill of trying out new restaurants in the city or even outside is just fun. So when i saw the deal in deal dozen, i immediately clicked the "BUY" button without hesitation.

So what did the deal contained?

For a price of P1,775, you'll get these amazing food- The Frazzled Cook Bestsellers:
7 Dishes with Drinks for Sharing!
Pizza Caprese,
Sizzling Squid,
Seafood Paella,
Beef Shortribs,
Wagyu Salpicao,
Pitcher of Home-made Iced Tea,
Pancake ala mode and
Strawberry Shortcake for ONLY P1,775


My boyfriend and I finished most of the food (i did stressed out beforehand that i looove to eat, soo don't judge! ;P ) although the food is good for sharing, prolly 3-4 is enough.

So if i had to rate (from
Fave- Least Fave) the food we ate, it would be:

1. Wagyu Salpicao-- Heavenly! It's so tender and soft to eat and yummy! Perfect with the garlic rice pairing.



2. Seafood Paella-- Really good. So many toppings. we weren't able to finish the whole thing since its a Rice Meal, which is heavy to eat.



3. Sizzling squid-- Yummy! Sweet but not too much and soft to chew.


4.Beef Shortribs-- Good. Soft to chew. Serves 4. Paired with mash potato--which is also good. no need for gravy.


5. Pizza Caprese-- Its Ok. reminds me of a pizza pie.


Home-made Iced Tea- sort of peachy flavor. i Like!

Desserts:
1. Pancake ala mode- Pancake with syrup and ice cream on top.- basically its your ordinary pancake with icecream.


2. Strawberry Shortcake- not much of a fan but its OK. Its really not sweet, its lacking the amount of sweetness that my palette was looking for. Looks good more than taste good though.


In terms of the place itself, I love the ambiance of the restaurant, suited for Date Nights or even Get togethers. It manifests a very Laid back yet eclectic vibe because of the collage of furnitures that doesn't actually matched but they look good together. I just don't know where it got its name- The Frazzled Cook. I believe that the word "frazzled" connotes a negative term. It means worn-out/fatigue and the restaurant doesn't exude such description.

Here are the pictures.
