TRES. This place has always been my to-go place whenever I
cannot decide what to eat, meeting my friends, and family get-together. Whenever
I dine here, it always feels like home. Not all restaurants and places can make
you feel this way. Maybe it is because
of their Filipino-Spanish cuisine which we most Filipinos have grown up
to. Their foods remind me of my
childhood, on how my Papa (who already passed away) and my Mama (who is working
in Dubai) would cook for us.
I have come to know this restaurant because of my high
school teacher / friend Mam Divina. During one of our bonding session, she told
me that we should try to dine at this place, which at the moment was barely a
year old restaurant at SM North The Block (Their old location. Tres’ current
location is at SM City North Edsa, 2nd Floor Annex Building). Since we
are both food junkies and adventurous when it comes to trying new foods /
restaurants, I did not think twice anymore and just nod as an answer.
Hell yeah, I was so glad of my first time dining experience
at TRES! Not your usual crowded place because of the ample space between each table
plus the cozy ambiance that make you feels like home. Their food servants are
also accommodating and courteous (Mam Divina and I fondly call three of them
James Yap, Derek, and Hayden because of their resemblance to those celebrities.
Hehehe! Peace!).
Of course, their foods are really the main stars of TRES. The
fusion of Filipino (usually a combination of sweet, sour, and salty flavors)
and Spanish (heavily influenced by seafood) cuisine is really a culinary
genius. You can taste different flavors all at once. Literally, you can consume
two or more cups of rice with this type of cuisine because of the taste and
heaviness of the “sarsa”.
Below are some of the pictures taken with my friends,
family, boyfriend, and I during our heavenly dining experience at TRES:

Personally, if I were to choose, I will opt for the old location
of TRES at SM North The Block but maybe, because of the need for a more
spacious place, they transferred to the Annex Building. Also, because of their
new and big place, prices of the food also got quite high (sad part but not
that pricey anyway). Nevertheless, their delicious foods are really worth the
price, however pricey it may become.
TRIVIA:
All prices in their menu end with number 3. Servings are
also good for 3 persons. Variants of their foods also comes in 3 (like sinigang
na salmon sa miso, lechon sinigang, and pork spareribs sinigang). Lastly, the reason why their restaurant was
named TRES: It is because their menu was developed by three chefs.
As long as TRES will be there to stay, I know that I will always
come back to where my heart is. Somewhere that makes me feel like home.
