Another review about HARVEST GASTRO PUB but this time around it's dinner time. Invited by OpenRice Philippines, my friend Ness and I excitedly traveled all the way from Tutuban Shopping Center to the 31st street in Bonifacio Global City where this newest hang-out pub is situated. Although it was both our second time already compared to those who were invited and present that night, the vibe was a lot different from the first time we encountered the place. Admittedly, we were a bit late for the said event but we still manage to engage in good conversation with old and familiar faces and even new ones as well. The owner named Junjie Abella joined us in our table in the middle of our gastronomic pleasure, he constantly strike light and friendly conversation with us and there was never a dull moment with him. I should say he was very accommodating that he even allowed us to order anything we want from the menu- yes as in everything! To simply put it, he did not want to preempt anything that we have to share to our readers and foodie friends. We had to honestly order and eat anything that we feel like eating without of course overdoing it. Since I am not that starving when I arrived, I just ordered for meals that piqued my interest making sure that it did not copy the orders my fellow OpenRicers/bloggers. In the end we shared meals together but I've only included here those that really went through my palate.
As I've mentioned in my previous blog post, Harvest's interior and some furniture came from the a French cafe which used to occupy this restaurant before. I used to receive emails from them regarding their current promos and it was so shocking that they have to bid goodbye and leave Manila for good last year. Hence, Harvest Gastro Pub came to life and it was a common knowledge that Harvest's current space was previously leased by Alexandre Cafe. Now, it has a different image to portray, more of liquors and imported drinks plus exciting dishes to choose from.
