Went to Mineral with my significant other for their chef’s counter tasting menu. We have thoroughly enjoyed all of the dishes they presented to us and the service was amazing as well. This is important for me to point out because our last tasting menu experience was at Dailo and even though overall we had a good experience, the service was lukewarm and half the stuff served kinda tasted like the others in the menu.
A lot of Filipinos turn their noses up on restaurants that serve Filipino fusion/fine dining style dishes (because they think they will butcher the dishes or that the best dishes are made at home) but I think Mineral really did a good job on making sure the flavors are as true as possible while enhancing the ingredients’ quality and even making some dishes even better. I think non-Filipinos will also like their execution and hope it will make them more interested in the Filipino cuisine. We were so full in the end and were there for almost 3 hours.
