This place is known around San Pablo City as one of the most accessible restaurants if you want an upscale dining experience around Laguna.

While their prices are at par with Manila-based restaurants they make sure to makeup for it by their great interiors, attentive staff and quality dishes.

The first thing I noticed was how the black pasta, which gets its color from squid ink, made the shrimp and scallops really stand out. The whole dish looked awesome and made me excited to dig in. The sauce was a mix of garlic, white wine, and butter, and it brought everything together perfectly. It was light and didn’t take away from the great taste of the seafood.

Si Christina Gateaus’s Shrimp and Scallops Black Pasta is a great palate refresher if you want to veer away from your usual meats.

I ordered the dinner-sized meal right-away –which is their biggest size– and was able to finish it all even though it was enough to be shared by two. The mix of yummy shrimp and scallops, interesting black pasta, and tasty sauce makes for a really enjoyable meal. Give it a shot, and you’ll definitely be happy you did!

Customers love their sans-rival cakes for their being light, airy, and being not too buttery or sweet.
