When you are about to attend a dinner event where you are expected to consume unlimited amount of the crispiest and the tastiest chicken in the country, would you pass up a chance to have an appetizer from a sweet spot in Manila's Fort Bonifacio Global City before heading to the actual event? No, right? I know. Because I didn't.
My friend Glenn and I were strolling along Burgos Circle with our writing paraphernalia at one hand and a Venti Coffee on the other when we chanced upon Bar Dolci. We were an hour early for the event so we decided to find a place where we can stay while waiting for dinner time. We strolled past Bar Dolci but the store illuminates with an inviting aura so we decided to go back and check on their menu.
Upon entering the store, we were greeted with a pleasing view of different colors of gelatos and macaroons. We know that we are headed to road of temptation.
Since I have a strong desire to be at par with Glenn’s appetite in consuming as much chicken as possible, while Glenn, on the other hand, was dead set on beating his previous record, with a heavy heart we know we need to pass up on ordering sweets so as not to ruin our appetite. So, we ordered for their Mushroom Bruschetta instead, as an appetizer, and promised each other that we will go back to try the macaroons and gelatos next time.
All the while, I thought it would just be those two delightfully colored treats that would torment me until such time that I would get to visit the store again, but when I tasted their Mushroom Bruschetta, I could not take it out of my mind. It was love at first bite.
Bar Colci’s Mushroom Bruschetta looks like a pizza but the distinct taste of a bruschetta is definitely there. Generous amount of mushroom nestled on top of cunchy-soft bread with melted cheese, crushed garlic, and shredded parsley. It was so meaty you wouldn’t even notice that it’s just a mushroom all the way.
It is definitely one of the reasons why I would be coming back to Bar Dolci aside from their gelatos and macaroons I have yet to try.
