Stellar Indian/Pakistani Dishes at Chef Restaurant
The Himalayan restaurant that closed that I told you about in a menus post lives on in the form of Chef Restaurant, a small but cute restaurant featuring genuine “5 STAR FOOD AT NO STAR PRICE” \m/ (And boy, are we ecstatic because for a chilly day like this, there’s nothing like spiced dishes to warm any rumbly tummy … apart from soupy stuff of the ramen/noodle variety.) (Typhoon Karen is out. Fingers crossed the typhoon following at its heels is going to go north while it’s still in the water. #PAGASAstalker)

How Things Changed in a Year …
Okay, a ton of things have changed in the city’s dining scene since I started this Baguio food blog *hihi, but I’ll just be featuring the most recent ones I noticed for this post. ^^, Ready for the ch-ch-ch-ch-changes?
1.) Forest Lodge
Used to be The Suites (the hotel/accommodation that stood in the shadow of The Manor and maybe one reason why it sounded so unreachable before was because it was exclusive to shareholders/tenants). Oh yes, it’s fair game now. *heehaha Le Twist (its inhouse resto), we’ll be having a food adventure in your dining area soon! Weee!
A few of the goings on at the lodge’s anniversary party.
Theme: Back to the 80’s.
They called in the DJs from the old Spirits Discotheque to get the people pumping and grinding on the dance floor – which turns out to be the new 19th T(ee). (I used to have an ice cream scooping stint in the old 19th Tee, not really in the 80s =b but boy did that get me reminiscin’. Missing Myrtle and Biang now.) Cue Life Dance! Yeh!
Before the party officially started at 8:00 p.m., Forest Lodge served Le Chef made little munchies and cocktails (which Race and I missed the better and more scrumptious selections part of due to the weather, dang!) But Race, their highnesses, their friends (It was nice to meet you Kariza, Nikki and hubby. (“,)) and I got to top ourselves off with pulutan/finger foods once the party got hopping. *nomnomnom pulutan. =))
