It was payday Friday for us two days ago, and to celebrate,
we wanted to try out new restaurants but don’t want to travel far.
Fortunately, our neighboring village of San Antonio boasts of interesting
places to eat.
I always pass Kamagong St. everyday on my way to work and
was excited to see this new restaurant with a huge sign that says Cucina
Rusticana. Compared to the other
restaurants that we frequent in San Antonio, this one looks intimidating from
the outside. Usually, when we are
looking for a place to eat, we just drive around in shorts and slippers and
were having second thoughts on entering this one. Actually, we tried to go to another restaurant near Sacred
Heart, but its already closed so we went back, and to our advantage, we were
the only guests.
Contrary to my impression, the interior is very homey. I
like the brick wainscoting and the rustic Mediterranean yellow painted
walls. It’s nice that the walls
are filled with art, although I would have chosen a more consistent subject to
compliment the Italian vibe, but I commend the management for supporting local
artist.
The waiting staff was very accommodating and made us feel at
ease. We browsed thru the menu and
ordered ourselves 2 different pasta dishes. We tried the Spaghetti Puttanesca and the Cream Sauce with
Chicken. The food was great. The
cream sauce was light and savory, and the Puttanesca was rich and fresh. I
later found out that they make their own pasta by hand or import direct from
Italy. It reminded us of the food
programs hosted by great Italian chefs in Lifestyle Channel and the Asian Food
Network.
Our favorites would be the dessert. The Chocolate Rum Panna Cotta is too
good to share. The Tiramisu is
just as sinful!
Those are just a few of what the restaurant is
offering. We will definitely be
back to try more.
