Forage

Marikina's new IT restobar! It's open for all. From sporty Dads, cool moms to happy-go-lucky peeps. The good thing is it's not pricey at all when it comes to drinks and the food is really good!

Drinks are lit. Affordable ang price. Every weekend halos andito kami. Kaso nagbago na kasi price nila last week. SUGGEST KO LANG NA SANA I-INCLUDE NA NILA SA PRICE SA MENU YUNG VAT KASI NAGKAKA-BILLSHOCK 😂

Heads up foodies, this is another worthy stop here in Marikina. This establishment opened September last year and my friend and I got invited to their opening. It is located at Gil Fernando Avenue, a busy strip, also an avenue with good food selections besides Lilac street in this city. 

Forage is too obvious not to miss especially at night. On top of its surmounting structure which could accommodate around 200 people, its lights and music would veer your senses to them.  They have a band on certain nights and have promotions here and there to get you hooked up to them. Months ago they had Beer Pong. 

Christian Ting, William Scheirman and Xavier Cruz comprise the young entrepreneurs who put up this place and they serve mostly a fusion of western comfort food. We were served premium meat choices, Bourbon Style Pork Belly and the U.S. Prime Rib Eye Steak. These were decent picks with it being both tender and tasty. 

Also got to indulge on  pasta via Seafood Ciopinno, appetizing Shrimp Gambas,  meaty Scheirman’s Burger, sugary Cream Puffs and sweet Green Tea Match Lava Cake for our dessert. I am not sure if these items are still around as they have commitment to change items once in awhile to continue capturing the Marikina audience. 

Tropical Bliss Fishbowl Cocktail is one of the alcohol picks we had that night. And this fish bowl with beer, the whole bottle in it, does get one excited. The beer that could be placed are products of Nipa Brew, Craftpoint Brewing Co., and Crazy Carabao Brewing Co. These are upcoming local craft beers. 

If you are looking for a night cap or a go to place to spend your weekend nights, Forage might just give you what you need!

A spacious sports bar adorned with handpainted walls. Basic interior with modern feel. Food was great especially the Seafood Cioppino Pasta and the Bumarabab Shrimp (not in the photos). They serve beer buckets (5 bottles for P298, may be mixed with other local variety) and it comes with a plate of parmesan fries. Only downside was the Chocolate milkshake which was not thick. Bottomless iced tea is cheap too, would be better if it's not that concentrated.

They are apparently planning to expand to an indie music bar as per one of the owners. Now that's something to look forward to!

Nagorder kami nun breakfast platter. 199 hindi sulit. Tapos waited 40 minutes for the chicken cordon bleu. Uhhhh lumamig na breakfast platter tsaka dumating yun chicken. So i got really disappointed tapos maawa naman kayo sa kitchen staff parang init na init sa kusina. Masarap lang yun nachos na appetizer and yun bangus haha well what can go wrong with boneless bangus and vinegar
