Celebrating Our 9th Wedding Anniversary At Nono’s SM City Fairview – Beragampengetahuan

The wonderful chance came just a few months ago when Nono’s opened an outlet
at SM City Fairview. Mommy Khris and I were quite excited when we discovered
that Nono’s had finally arrived in the Fairview area so we said that we would
eat there for our anniversary date (which we did!).

The ambiance at Nono’s SM City Fairview

We certainly liked that Nono’s was able to maintain its homey vibe at SM City
Fairview. The crowd at Makati is definitely different from that in Fairview
(Quezon City) and this left us wondering if the ambiance at Nono’s SM City
Fairview would be any different. 

Pepito’s Steak Sliders

Honestly, it was not. Nono’s SM City Fairview had the same laid-back and
welcoming ambiance as the branch in Makati. The servers were very good,
especially in their recommendations.

What we tried at Nono’s SM City Fairview

We had our favorites at Nono’s in Makati so we wanted to eat those again. At
the same time, we wanted to try a new dish just to further differentiate our
experience. So, with that, these are what we ordered at Nono’s SM City
Fairview:

Pepito Steak Sliders (Php465)

This is USDA beef and garlic chips, served on pandesal with fries or homemade
potato chips on the side. The beef is cooked medium rare by default but we
requested it to be cooked medium well. It was really delicious – the beef was
tender and the slight hint of sweetness on the pandesal complemented the
flavorful beef. The garlic-infused oil that was served with it was wonderful;
just pour it over the beef for an extra burst of flavor.

Roasted Beef Belly (Solo Php675 / Big Plate Php1,345)

Roasted Beef Belly

Of course, we ordered the big plate. The slices of slow-roasted USDA beef
belly are drizzled with balsamic glaze and served with horseradish cream and
mashed potatoes. This is one of our favorites and it never fails to satisfy
our palate. The beef belly is really good and tender.

Shrimp El Diablo (Solo Php465 / Big Plate Php895)

This pasta dish is made of pan-roasted shrimp with chili pepper flakes,
garlic, onion, and red capsicum tossed in olive oil and tomato-herb
sauce. 

Shrimp El Diablo

We thought this pasta dish was a great partner to balance the rich and savory
beef dishes that we ordered.

Nono’s Chocolate Oblivion

For dessert, we had a slice of Nono’s Chocolate Oblivion. This chocolate cake
was the perfect way to end a delicious meal and is definitely recommended for
chocolate lovers.

Epilogue

All in all, we had a delightful experience at Nono’s SM City Fairview. It was
really nice to know that there was already a Nono’s restaurant near our
neighborhood. The food is as delicious as we remembered it. It made our 9th
wedding anniversary date even more special, even if it were just a simple
lunch.
