As the saying go, it’s always good to make a great first impression. How about making it into a Perfect 10? <\/p>\n

\nAmuse bouche<\/em><\/div>\n
Resorts World Manila’s fine dining restaurant, Impressions, made a pretty good one to the Asia Tatler Dining, which gave them a perfect 10 rating for cuisine, wine selection, setting and service. Last week, I was fortunate enough to get invited to experience perfection.
\n
\nIt started with an amuse bouche<\/em> of asparagus spear with herring caviar, which was absolutely divine. It gave us a hint of what’s to come. It was the Perfect 10 Feast, a special degustation menu that features the restaurant’s top selling items.<\/p>\n
The feast starts with the appetizers: Crab with romaine salad, celery, green beans and green apples tossed in truffle mayonnaise dressing; Duo of salmon “Demi Deuil”: marinated salmon with truffle sauce and smoked salmon with herring caviar, green pea hummus, and; Beef Carpaccio, arugula salad with parmesan cheese and Dijonnaise sauce.<\/p>\n

\nTrio of appetizers<\/em><\/div>\n
Everything in the plate was delicious, but I have to say, I am partial to the salmon demi deuil. If you can pick just one appetizer, go for this.<\/p>\n
It was followed by a trio of duck liver salads: Seared and lacquered duck liver, mango rougail roll in a crepe with plum sauce; Duck liver terrine de foie gras de canard, grilled ell, and Terrine of duck liver medoc with mesclun salad and beetroot foam.<\/p>\n

Eating this was heaven. It was very rich, but the portion was just right that it’s not overwhelming, and it was melt-in-your-mouth tender. Heaven.<\/p>\n
The main entrees consists of Veal sweetbread with truffle risotto and porcini in parsley cream sauce, and
\nSteamed cod fish, crumble of chorizo with ginger and lemongrass emulsion.<\/p>\n

It was a great follow up to the rich duck liver, with a lighter flavor. <\/p>\n
Before our dessert was served, mignardises<\/em> were laid on the table, small, bite-sized sweets before the big finale. <\/p>\n

Delectable Hazelnut chocolate, Passionfruit pastilles, and Orange macarons served to ease us into the next course.<\/p>\n
For dessert, there was the Strawberry\/mixed berry tiramisu, and Dark chocolate souffle with coconut creme anglaise.<\/p>\n

\nDessert<\/em><\/div>\n
It was a superb way end to a spectacular meal. The tiramisu is unlike any I’ve tried, and that souffle. Oh my. Perfection.<\/p>\n
The Perfect 10 Feast is available until November 15, 2012 for Php 2,000 per person. For reservations, call the Impressions reservations hotline at (02) 908-8883.<\/p>\n
