Cendrillon is also well known for its many varieties of Asian teas (I'll try the "Flower Craft Tea" next time). Interestingly, P remarked that they also had some pretty good German beer available on draft - but opted on bottled San Miguel beer anyway. That just shows how good Pinoy stuff is! Unfortunately, I didn't have much luck on the drinks department. The waitress announced that they had ran out of fresh "lambanog" (coconut wine/vodka made from from distilled sap of unopened coconut flowers) hence I settled on Buko (young coconut juice) Martini instead. 
We started with 2 orders of Amys Spring Rolls while S tried the Squash Soup with Crab Dumplings. She insisted that she was still full from the corn that she ate at the Street Fair.
For his entree, P had the "Special of the Day": Grilled Whole Sea Bass with some steamed greens and grilled plantain. Who knew his favorite part of the fish was its "cheeks"?
I had their Black Rice Paella which had shrimps, scallops, Manila clams and a crab sitting on top of a squid-tinged bed of black rice. As it turned out, the curry-flavored rice was a tad too spicy for S who ate some of the fish and crab dumplings instead. Personally, I liked the selections on their Sunday Brunch menu better and would most probably be back to try it soon.LINKS:
