After trying to book a ticket to the last full show of Le Marquis at the French Film Festival at Shangri-La (which was unsuccessful), my friends and I trooped to Pages Deli for dinner. The menu items were a play on words on classic literature. However it escapes me what the names of the dishes we ordered were. This wasn't the first time this has happened (see my entry on Crisostomo). Note to self: jot down the names!
We settled on Aglio Olio pasta. Simple and tasty.
Next up was the salmon. My friend Kato told the waiter to only have it half-cooked, and it turned out good with the mustard sauce. The boiled vegetables, particularly the carrots, were over done and felt like mush.
The highlight of the evening was the Pizza Milano. It was a 10" thin crust pizza with thick sausage toppings (not the usual pepperoni slice). By the time we remembered to take a picture, there was only 1 slice left. That was how good it was.
For dessert we had the cheesecake and the apple crumble. The cheesecake was light but its flavor wasn't memorable. The apple crumble was good, with a lot of cinnamon and apples. Its crust was firm enough and the crumble was sweet.
Pages Deli is located at the ground floor of the Shangri-La Mall in Mandaluyong City.
