Eating our way through Manila : Food Review: Zao Vietnamese Bistro

Original date: June 16, 2007

A resto that doesn't receive much credit, but i think deserves to, would be Zao. the place is beautiful, with dim lights and a somewhat formal table setting. the waiters are very efficient and nice always attentive to their customers. the food varies from okay to really yummy plus, it's affordable considering the place.. so the ambiance + service + price make it worth your while

Vegetable rolls - PhP 150+ (i really don't remember the name or the price.. i'll change it as soon as i know, pero it's sarap!)

Kangkong w/ pork - PhP 150+ (again, sorry i forgot the name and price.. but what i remember is that the serving is really big, even though it doesn't seem so in the picture, and it's deliciously sweet and salty at the same time)

Vietnamese adobo - PhP 200+ (for the nth time i don't remember the name or price, but they said this was the vietnamese equivalent of our adobo... although this one was really close to asado than it was adobo.. still, it was delicious.. serving was somewhat small though)
