Eds and I were very lucky to be one of the first ones to try the new restaurant of Enderun. They will have a soft opening today, September 23 and will be open to the public. As you read, you will see that it was not only the food we experienced but you will meet some of the people behind this great school. As we meet all of them, we learn more about the school, the passion behind it and the vision which makes it so successful. It was a very interesting lunch and we really enjoyed ourselves. After all, not everything is about the food and not everything is about making money. When you eat in Restaurant 101, you not only enjoy the delicious food, but you support the students who come to learn and train there.
We were greeted by Don, our server, who took care of us for our lunch
The interiors of the place was not yet fully finished, so this is just a peek at what it will look like
Meet Alex Jureeratana, Executive Director of Food and Beverage. He is Thai and started in the first part of this year. Alex was the one who opened the two Joel Robuchon restaurants in Las Vegas. He has a wide experience in the hospitality industry and still has a lot of offers from other establishments, but he told me when he had the opportunity to work in Enderun, he took it because he believed in the vision of the school. He was also amazed that Alain Ducase, one of the top Chefs in the world, has tied up with Enderun. He says that it is very hard to talk to Alain Ducase due to his busy schedule and he does not talk to just anyone. Alex also said that he liked the job because it was a way of giving back. He feels that through the school, he is able to pass on his learnings and help other students. What other motivation can be greater than that?
This is one of the details Alex explained to us. He had these linens specially made and embroidered. It is one of the techniques in teaching the students how to put the linen properly on the table. The embroidery has to be in line with each other
You can see the kitchen from the dining area, so you will see all the students working inside
Our friend and schoolmate in highschool, Tricia Castañeda-Tensuan. She is employee #1. As soon as her boss, Jack Tuason, asked her to join him in the new project, she accepted and was hired immediately! She was working with Discovery Suites prior to Enderun. We are so proud of you Tricia! More power!
Our menu for that day. They had a set lunch for us. But once the restaurant opens they will have an ala carte menu. Eds and I really enjoyed the food! We got one of each to share so we could try all.
Classic French Onion Soup Crouton Gruyere Cheese
Oops! It’s Chef Thomas again! I always bump into him in Enderun! I hope I get to try his cooking one of these days. A very charming, handsome and kind husband according to his wife and our friend, Rachelle 🙂
Cos Lettuce Hearts Mimosa with Ceasar Dressing Chopped Eggs and Bacon Crisps
What an interesting dish! Sort of like a different version of Ceasar salad
Alex grabbed the plate and started cutting away and prepared it for us
YUMMY!!!
Chad Davis, F & B Faculty, who I saw in Restaurant 101 ( Restaurant 101 August 7, 2007) in Ortigas two years ago. One of the pioneers of Enderun.
Bouillabaisse Fish Soup with Sea Bass, Shellfish and Rouille on Toast
We were so happy to see our friend Zette ( Farewell Dinner by Zette for Fran June 4, 2009 ) ( La Cocina de Tia Moning March 5, 2007 ) there!!!! She was rushing to get to class!! Zette teaches Culinary Arts 101 and she told us she teaches that class 3 times a day. I would think so because a 101 course normally is a requirement for everyone so you can imagine how important that class is 🙂
Grilled Double Pork Chop Normandy with Roasted Apples and Calvados Cream Sauce
Chef See of course was there! Whenever I think of Enderun, I think of Tricia and Chef See 🙂
I am so happy to see Chef See looking very satisfied and it looks like he has finally found his calling in Enderun. He has a lot of talent and learnings to share with the school and with the students.
Selection of Cream Custards
Davao Vanilla, Green Tea and Caramel
YUMMY! YUMMY! and YUMMY!
Javy Infante, President of Enderun
What a pleasure to meet the brains behind the school! Javy is one of the founders of the school and Eds told me that this guy is a GENIUS! And believe me, she does not have to convince me!
The school started a few years back at the Ortigas campus extension with 150 students and now they have 600 plus students and by next year they will have almost a thousand students! What more can I say?
We were suppose to have Roasted Pineapple, Lime Jelly with Coconut Sorbet, but they served us this instead
Louis XV in Monaco
According to Tricia, this is the actual dessert they serve in that restaurant, Louis XV in Monaco in Hotel de Paris in Monte Carlo and it is really delicious!!!
Heart2Heart is so priveledged to always be part of Enderun. Everyone in the school is so warm and accomodating, I feel so much a part of them. Thank you for always inviting and sharing with Heart2Heart!
