What / Where I Ate - Bigby's

HISTORY OF BIGBY'S

The Bigby’s Café Concept was first introduced in the city of Cagayan de Oro on December 8, 1998. Its creators came up with an idea of creating an atmosphere fit for an adventure into the different cuisines of the world. The menu, the interior design and service style were created to position the concept midway between fine dining and fast-casual dining. This format has developed into the Bigby’s Café and Restaurant System

After hours of malling at SM City Cebu, I brought my family to Bigby's for dinner and here's what we ordered.

The starter - BLOSSOMING SPINACH DIP 

It is a sheesy-gooey spinach dip served with Melba toast for Php 199.00

 This appetizer is indeed a taste teaser, the family loved the spinach dip, we tasted perfection in every swallow. 

My rating (family's rating as well) is 10 of 10!  Kudos to the brain of this recipe, to the Chef behind this dish, well-done!

 The salad - ZEN HIGH SALAD
