Cibo

Cibo is one of my all time favorite restaurants. I have continuously went back and forth to this restaurant since forever. I dunno why I never get tired of this place. Well, I guess they serve really good food. Moreover, their menu is selection of very healthy dishes. So, its the season of lent now and summer has already started. We decided to eat in Cibo, Greenbelt for our break since we know they serve good food and they serve dishes with no meat in them.


Uva Nera Red Grape (php 119)
Since its burning hot here in Manila, we decided to order refreshments which could make us less feel hot. So we ordered the red grape shake. It's really one of the best shakes here in the metro. It was really blended well and you can guarantee that what you are drinking is really fresh. The bits of grapes are really felt inside the mouth.



Te Freddo Iced Tea Menta Mint Syrup (php 88)

The mint iced tea is one of my favorites here in cibo. I feel so refreshed while drinking this drink. It really refreshes my feeling. You get both the minty feeling and the sweetness of iced tea. If you love mint, you could ask for extra mint syrup if it is not enough for your taste buds.


La Familia Spaghettini All 'Alfonso (php 573)
For our main course, we ordered la familia spaghettini all 'Alfonso. In the menu, the pasta is supposed to be rigatoni but we had it changed to spaghettini. I like it better this way because its easier to eat for me. This pasta contains shrimps, chives, stewed tomato, chili peppers and cream sauce. It also comes with bread. This is ultimately my favorite pasta ever since. The noodles of the pasta is al dente. The sauce is very rich with flavor and something you would not get tired of eating. You'll just want to get more and more serving. Th tomatoes are sweet and blends with flavor of the pasta well. On the other hand, I control myself in eating shrimps because I really have bad allergies from seafood. 


Filleto di Pesce (php 383)

We ordered another main course, fileto di pesce. Its pan grilled fish fillet with mushroom pilaf and we chose pesto for our sauce. I suggest that you don't order this dish. It lacks flavor. The fish was perfectly cooked but there wasn't enough salt or flavoring to taste. 


Definitely, I'll go back to Cibo, it is like home to me. The ambience of the place is something familiar. It is a cozy restaurant wherein you could chill and eat good food. You should try their mango pannacotta for dessert. It is really a must try.
