Hyphy's (Robinson's Galleria- Veranda)


I first encountered this restaurant when it was featured in ClicktheCityHyphy's is a restaurant owned by one of the well-known chefs in the Philippines, Chef Bruce Lim. His creations are usually unique and very interesting. Come to this restaurant and he'll prove it to you.


Hyphy's offer a wide variety of food choices and since I wanted to have pasta f or lunch, the Malunggay Pesto and Calamansi Tuyo Pasta were the first ones to catch my eye. I wanted to try something new so even if I do not eat salted fish, I was adventurous enough to try the Calamansi Tuyo Pasta.


Spaghetti noodles sauteed in garlic oil with salted fish (or what Pinoys call "tuyo") flakes, cheese, chili flakes and calamansi.


I find the tuyo too salty so I didn't really eat the fish on top, I guess the flakes tossed in the pasta is enough for me. It was flavorful; the saltiness of the fish mixed well with the calamansi and the chili flakes gave it added spice. I just hope they lessen the oil since it becomes noticeable as it settles at the bottom of the dish.


They also gave me complimentary garlic fries... nice one! I have to commend their staff for being nice and attentive as well. Two thumbs up for great service.


I would love to try the other items on the menu. Prices aren't steep which makes it more encouraging to come back. More branches for Hyphy's, please!! :)
