Really good value for the price. Super delicious and servings are not too small. The foie long bao is a must. Everything is excellent, except for the baos. They're good but I'd skip if I want room for other dishes.

WOW. Their food is wow.

But lemme give you the backstory - You see, my boyfriend and I had our first fancy date in the original Black Sheep. We were dating for 3 months and he took me here to impress me. it was good but we found it expensive. So when I heard the original closed and reopened down the block from me, I held off from visiting, unsure what to expect. But i was always super super curious. After all, I enjoyed my meal, even if my boyfriend did not enjoy paying for it.

Today I just figured, eff it. I'm going. By myself. Yolo. And so I went. Laptop in tow. Determined to work and eat.

Their food was terrific. I had: Two-Na, Salmon Char-Sui and the Famous Foie Long Bao. (Again, yolo) I had every intention to order Champorado for dessert but I was so darned full. So I'll save that for a future visit. The bill damage: Php1,000 less a P300 booky coupon. For that caliber of food, Worth it. So worth it. This was a top notch meal and the plates were beautiful.

It made me sad however that it was empty on a lunch hour. I think the biggest thing Black Sheep has going *against* it, is its reputation.. the original was associated with being expensive, overly fancy, slightly pretentious and intimidating. The new Black Sheep is none of that! Thank God. Now This will be a restaurant I will add into our dinner date rotation. But maybe KKB from time to time kasi matakaw ako. But kami na so no need to act all demure, right? Ilabas ang true self! hahaha. Or should I say Baa.. baaa.. baaaaa? (Or oink oink oink?)
