McDreamer: Society Lounge

If you're looking for a place where you can talk, with perfect lighting, beautiful ambiance, right temperature, and French, this is the perfect place - Society Lounge.

Located at The Atrium, Makati, it's by the end of the building, and a Valet service shall welcome you when you park your car right up the curb.

The valet crew assisted us with our gifts and accompanied us inside the restaurant. Such a warm welcome, I said to myself...

My DS doesn't want to drive especially during the holiday season. But unfortunately, our drivers were too busy with their "Holiday bugs" as well... Since it is the Purse Ladies' Christmas Party, we had to pursue with the plan and DS had to accept the fact that she's driving... I was so relieved when traffic was abnormally moderate, and was really happy with the valet service... I saw one of the PL's arriving too, G, we were the first ones to arrive...

For appetizers, we tried the

Stick Mozzarella and ham with tomato sauce and garlic

P325.00

and

Shrimp Potato Noodle Spring Rolls with Garlic and Chili

P425.00

The Mozarella stick was dry, the sauce helped a little, but still, I probably didn't like the use of Mozarella per se on cheese sticks... Maybe if they added another cheese or two, it would taste a lot better, perhaps ricotta or brie...

On the contrary, the Spring Roll was impressive! I love that it was presented beautifully, with different dips to compliment the flavor.

I loved the spiciness of the chili on this...

Purse Ladies A and D arrived shortly.

Now, for the main course, I had steak, (most of us did)

Beef Tenderloin Morel Sauce and Potato Gratin

P1,325.00

While the others had these yummy, delightful entrees...

Duck Breast with Apple and Peach Juice

P1,225.00

Grilled Scallops, covered with bacon and stuffed Calamari

P1,175.00

Let me just tell you that all entrees were deliciously prepared. And our palates were delightfully satisfied...

And for dessert, we had these.... Unfortunately, I forgot to take note of the names and prices...

~~Read: But actually, they're nothing spectacular...~~

The restaurant also serves delectable dishes that doesn't cost much, such as, Linguine Carbonara at P475.00, Tagliatelle Porcini and Fresh Mushroom at P775.00, Special Beef Burger at P625.00, and California Beef Fajitas at P425.00

It was another fun, yummy Christmas night with the

Purse Ladies...
