Old Oven Art Cafe

In our quest to eat in as many of the restaurants along Katipunan as possible, we trooped down to Katipunan extension and visited this quaint restaurant which believes that dining is more than just the mere act of consuming food, but about new discoveries and experiences as well.

Upon entering the door leading to the 2nd floor, we were greeted by numerous pictures of some of the famous tourist spots in our country. It was refreshing to be greeted by all these smiling faces. This personal touch definitely made the place more inviting.

The place is a little small. There are 5 tables (4 chairs each). Artworks are displayed on one side of the room. They are created by the Filipino Deaf Visual Art Group.

Lickn' Chickn' Spicy Wings - Bestseller! (P180)

There were actually 6 of these. We were so hungry we forgot to take a picture first. The wings were a bit too spicy for my taste buds, but people who are accustomed to hot stuff might find this okay. It has a hint of sweetness to it. The flavors are unique (not the tangy wings I was expecting) and very tasty.

Pizza Margherita (P170)

We loved the thin crust of the pizza. The cheese was a little disappointing (which we think isn't mozzarella) though.

US Angus Rib Eye Steak Plate (P550)

We loved the risotto. It had the right amount of creaminess to it. It also had enough mushrooms to add a different texture to the dish. The fat in the steak made every bite more flavorful :D The price for this dish is super sulit. We highly recommend you try this one out.

You could add P35 to the steak to get this glass of iced tea. Nothing special about this one. Just regular Nestea powder. We do wish more restaurants learn the art of brewing tea.

Sadly, we weren't able to try their cheesesteak for which they are famous. Maybe next time. Also, they were showing Man vs. Food while we ate. This definitely made our stay more interesting. :D

OVERALL RATING
Food: 3.5/5
Somewhere between good and very good.
Service: 5/5
You should trust us on this one. I am a very demanding customer, constantly requesting for more water, additional sauces, inquiring about stuff hehehe
Value for money: 3/5
A little less than P1000, our meal could've fed 3-4 people.
