And on Auntie Sabeth's birthday, the Fatterside animals invaded Gaucho!
The Vixens. (Except for the hippopotamus who wanted to be a red giraffe.)
The Cougars. HAHAHA!!! (Sorry, couldn't help it!) :P
And there will always be Mga Pasaway!
Pilosopo blood runs in the family. Read about The Original here.
Pan Casera - Gaucho's very own brick oven bread served with chicken pate.
The warm and lovely breads kept us hungry beasts from attacking each other before
the real food arrived.
Fugazetta with Chorizo, Anchovies, Tomatoes and Olives - as delicious as the very first time
I had the Argentinian pizza. Read about it here. The hippo easily wolfed down 3.
Lamb Empanada - more flavorful this time
Cochino a la Cruz - Romblon free range suckling pig
Cordero Entero a la Cruz - Cagayan de Oro raised young lamb
Falda a la Cruz - US beef short plate
Apahap Patagonia - whole fish roasted the Patagonian way with melted cumin butter
Cangrejos Asados - roasted Palawan crabs coated with lemon garlic butter
US Beef Ribeye Tomahawk 1500g
Delicious if you know the right places to attack. Leave the center part to those not in the know :P
Unlimited Garlic Rice
Trapiche Broquel Malbec 2011
Our three desserts gave us utmost pleasure. We attacked and gorged with no shame.
Poached Red Wine Pear on Panna Cotta with Granola
Salted Caramel Gelato with Popcorn and Chocolate Syrup
Dulce de Leche Crepes with Roasted Nuts and Cinnamon Ice Cream - my favorite of all!
I ate this so fast because it was everyone else's favorite, too!
And of course, in true Fatterside fashion, we brought a battalion of birthday cakes.
Clockwise from top left: BreadTalk Chocolate Mousse, Nikko's White Chocolate Almond Cake,
Purple Oven Chocolate Dome, The Cake Club Le Royale, Baked Cheesecake, Vanessa, Isaphan,
Supermoist Chocolate Cake, and Danielle. At the center was Gaucho's very own Chocotorta
A closer look at my cousin Nikko's darling of a cake! So pretty on the outside...
And even prettier inside! Just looking at the purples made me so happy already!

Boy, do I need this in my life right now!
Happy Happy Birthday to My Tigress of an Auntie! :)
