FTF: Friday Was French Baker Night

It's time to share my food trip last Friday! After picking up my son, we went to Cubao to fill our tummies. From Sm to Ali Mall, there is now a bridgeway connecting the 2 buildings. And along the bridgeway, are restaurants. There's Sbarro, Dulcinea, Dairy Queen and a French Baker.You can view their new restaurant set up here: French Baker Ali Mall

One of the things I love about the new French Baker are their paper mats. It matches the  fantastic line of food on their menu and the whole French dining feel.

For me: CHICKEN CORDON BLEU---Deep fried roulade of flattened chicken meat with butter and cheese, encrusted in seasoned sourdough bread crumbs in creamy hern sauce and sided with pan-roasted seasonal vegetables. Your choice of rice or bread roll as another siding.-source-

For Franky: HAMBURGER STEAK---Grilled beef burger steak on sizzling plate sided with mushroom gravy on mashed potatoes with pan-roasted seasonal vegetables. Your choice of rice or bread roll as another siding.-source-

On the side, my son enjoyed his tall glass of Chocolate Ice Cream Shake. So these made us happy, how about you, what's your food trip on a Friday?

Food Trip Friday

Chicken Cordon Bleu

I settled for tomato catsup with this one. Any mayo-based sauce, even salad-dressings will fit this crunchy goodness. I still prefer mayo-garlic sauce.

Chicken Cordon Bleu is a French-inspired poultry dish, although evidence suggests that Chicken Cordon Bleu was actually developed in the United States by chefs imitating other stuffed meat dishes from Europe. The name of the dish is clearly of French origin – Cordon Bleu means “blue ribbon” in French, and in French culinary tradition, the Cordon Bleu is awarded to food or chefs of particularly high quality. -source-

The basic ingredients are chicken, ham, and a cheese. You may use bread crumbs as crust. In which veal is wrapped in ham and cheese then fried.
