Foodie Frugal: Restaurant Trip: Dillinger's 1903 ♥♥♥

In celebration of my five years in the company, I took my family (sans my brother) out for lunch in a restaurant in Makati. Located at the third floor of Greenbelt 3, Dillingers exudes a modern classic vibe with its heavy wooden door and dark colored interiors.

At lunch time, the ambiance is homey with huge and comfy chairs.

I had vouchers for this lunch out so I made reservations the day before and was delighted that we were led to the table nearest the entrance, where we could still see the view outside. :)

While my sisters (Dianne and Des) were busy posing for the camera :)

Since this was on my account, they let me choose what food to order from the menu.

I ordered salad and pasta (2 orders each) for our appetizers.

Grilled Chicken Caesar Salad ♥♥
It was very tasty and we loved that the servings were generous enough for the 5 of us.

Carbonara ♥♥♥
I am a white sauce pasta lover and this is so delish, even my Dad enjoyed it too.

Roast Beef Sandwich ♥♥
Dianne said it was good and was very reluctant to share it with Daddy. :D

My family enjoys eating steaks; may it be at a restaurant or just plain grilling it at home. So ordering the 16-oz ribeye steak is not surprising.

16-oz USDA Black Angus Rib-eye Steaks ♥♥♥
These yummy steaks were definitely the star of our meal. :)

We had 2 steaks medium rare and a medium well for our bunso (seeing pink grosses her out!) and had baked potatoes for our sides. The chargrilled marks were a beautiful sight for the massive and cooked to perfection steaks.

Since my brother did not want to join us for lunch that day, I took pity and ordered him some for his lunch. :)
