L'Entrecote: Great Steak, Awesome Sauce

The Dude's in the mood for a steak, not the usual steak, but something different. And one place comes to mind: L'Entrecote, with its special "secret herb butter sauce" that is unique to this place.


Great steak, great sauce, great fries. Just perfect. Go for the L'Entrecote Set Menu (P 980+) which includes US Certified Angus Steak, fresh fries and the House Salad. Now you can have traditional French Bistro style steak frite with a rich butter sauce without flying to Paris.




Start with the complimentary bread and butter as you wait for the steak. Served hot, the light crunch of the exterior crust yet soft inside goes perfectly well with a little butter. Make that a lot of butter. And when a restaurant serves good bread, it's a good sign of things to come.


Next up, the House Salad with the special house dressing and walnuts. Light, yet full of flavor.


And then the rack is positioned and the candles are lit...and you know the steak is about to be served...


And here it is, covered in that awesome "secret herb butter sauce."

 

Medium rare, with the slightly pink center, was my choice.  No regrets at all.


The fresh fries are thin and crisp, the way I like it. Dip the fries in the herb butter sauce, and you'll want another bowl of fries. And another. And it's free.


Grab a few slices, drizzle some of the sauce on the fries...and enjoy.


The lit candles keep the steak and the sauce warm, so you can just take your time.


The steak is tender and juicy, and the sauce really complements the steak. And the fries.


This has got to be one of the best steak places in the metro. And the Philippine Tatler just named it as one the best restaurants in the country for 2011. The secret has got to be the sauce...


Down to the last few slices...

Definitely the place to go if you are looking for more than the usual steak. And that special secret herb butter sauce.

L'Entrecote is located at Forbes Town Center, Unit A Bellagio 2, Forbes Road, Bonifacio Global City or call 856-4858 for inquiries.

  3. Lucky you! I'm a puritan when it comes to steak. Of all the sauces on offer I refuse the lot and just ask for plain butter on the side. A slab of salted butter, melting into the grilled steak, WOW. It's a bit like the milk and flesh reunion if you know what I mean. The steak just seams to absorb it. I was at a Jamie Oliver restaurant recently and the only butter they had they had made themselves!! Bummer :)
