Planet Grapes - La Ville de Bonifacio

Had a get-together dinner here with friends and I was pleasantly surprised at how delectable all our ordered dishes were! We ordered the Garden Salad with Raspberry Vinaigrette, Potato Chips with Truffle and Parmesan, Mexican Corn, Beef Salpicao, Roast Chicken, and a glass of wine each. I’m not sure if I was just hungry, but I was having a culinary ecstasy with every sip and bite The Potato Chips with Truffle and Parmesan initially looked like a simple bowl of Lay’s, but the truffle and cheese were a good combination that put a tasty spin to this appetizer. I’m not a salad person, but the greens in our salad were fresh and crunchy, and the raspberry vinaigrette was perfect and flavorful. The Mexican Corn was cheesy and creamy, one of my friends even requested for one more order of the dish. The chicken was quite savory, that although I’m not a fan of white meat, I really enjoyed this dish. The Beef Salpicao was also melt-in-your-mouth tender and was worth every bite.

Planet grapes is a perfect place! I enjoyed my stay here with my best friend. We had a great time because of the wine, great food and the service was fast and the servers were really helpful. This is place is too perfect and you would want to celebrate your special moments here!

This is just like the Romeo and Juliet of restaurants. An affair between street food and wine that you thought will never work, Planet Grapes pulls out one of the most facinating things in cuisine. And the amazing thing was, it was that good. Here are some recommendations: BBSM (Baboy, Bagoong, Singkamas, Mangga) Something that takes you a while back during highschool days where you get to buy the local Mangga with Bagoong, this dish puts a surprising kick into it. It just has the right saltiness to make it work. Spaghettini with Gorgonzola Cream Sauce The pasta was a bit soggy but the sauce was really good! Sapin sapin with Salted Egg Sauce To be honest, I was a bit skeptical with the combination as I grew up to eat Sapin sapin as it is. Turns out to be one of the most awesone combinations I've ever tried. This is some dish that we got here. The best thing about the place is that they have wine recommendations for every dish that they serve, elevating the dish to its next level. Some might get intimidated with the pricing per bottle but the do have cheaper alternatives for people to get enjoy their wine. This is a perfect place to bring someone for an unwinding day or to get someone introduced into wine.

Who would have thought that street food and wine would actually match? Well they do and we totally enjoyed our first time at Planet Grapes. Great food and awesome servers, not to mention they know their products well. Our favorites BBSM (baboy, bagoong, singkamas at mangga) and Puto Calasiao Fondue paired with Te Mania Gewnrztaminer, Roast Chicken paired with Pircas Negras Forrentes, and the Salted Egg Sapin Sapin paired with Lauriga Muscat 2012. The classic and all time Pinoy Fave Hilaw na Mangga and Singkamas with bagoong looked so classy. We loved the presentation. The bagoong was placed in a bowl mixed with pork making it easy to eat without getting the hands dirty and messy. The puto calasiao is readily available as well. The best part is that it comes with cheese fondue. And this we can attest to, once you start eating, you just won't be able to stop that easily! Very yummy indeed that it makes you want to finish everything all at once! The Salted Egg Sapin Sapin was unforgettable! It was so delicious that it made us realize that the Salted Egg craze is not just a phase but might actually be here to stay!!! And lastly, the ambience, ahhhh, such a perfect place to chill and hangout with friends.

My friends and I have been planning to have a wine and cheese night and it was only yesterday that we're able to do it. Planet Grapes made it possible with their wide selection of wines perfect for budding wine lovers like us. The service is great. You'll have wine specialists to help you pick out the perfect wine for your taste buds. The ambience is also romantic. Ideal for having quality time with your loved ones. Our overall experience was totally wonderful. We had an epic night of fun and our stomach full of happiness. We're just supposed to order the cheese platter and few bottles of wine. But, when we're checking the menu, we got excited to try out their new concept of Street Food Meets Wine. So, we ordered more. We tried the Cheese Fondue with Puto Calasiao. The Cheese Fondue is a combination of 2 kinds of cheese and anchovies. It's a must try! We also ordered the BBSM (Baboy, Bagoong, Singkamas and Mangga), you'll surely crave for this. We also had Sotong Goreng which is crunchy and very rich in flavor. These are best paired with Te Mania Gewurztraminer. For our mains, we had Porkchop and Pork Sisig paired with Paul Mas Pinot Noir. Then, the Pircas Negras Torrentes perfectly complemented our Roast Chicken and Spaghetini Gorgonzola. The pasta is absolutely scrumptious. For my favorite part, Desserts! Sapin-Sapin with Salted Egg sauce should be in your list. So yummy! We also tried the Turon Trilogy which is also delicious. This is one restaurant I would surely go back to and can absolutely recommend to others. A definite 5 for me.
