Melo’s Steak Ala Dad: Wagyu for the Man Who Loves You

Wednesday, June 23rd, 2010

 

 

The Home of Certified Angus Beef since 1988 has also become a certified place for Wagyu –in addition to the Angus they are known for, Wagyu is now also their prime bestseller.  And what’s the best gift for the main man in the house and the main man in your heart?  It’s quality time over the best quality of meat.

 

Dads’ special day was celebrated last June 20, Sunday.  Unfortunately, I was in La Union that weekend and couldn’t celebrate with my family.  But there’s no way that I’m going to let the spirit of Father’s Day pass without celebrating it with the Number One man in my life.  And what better way to melt my dad’s heart than to give him a gastronomical experience he will surely enjoy.

 

 

My parents are big steak eaters and I think they’ve passed it down to me.  This time around, I want to treat the man in the house to a meaty meal.  Where else to bring my Pops but at Melo’s? 

 

 

Melo’s is known to be the first restaurant to serve certified Angus Beef in the Philippines, Melo’s Steakhouse never fails to satisfy their guests with their mouth-melting, succulent and tastiest steaks.  Now also known to serve authentic Wagyu steaks, it’s no wonder more and more steak enthusiasts come to Melo’s. “We are confident that our Wagyu steaks are loved by our customers because it’s high quality beef and quite simply, the best steak one could ever taste,” says Melo’s Marketing Manager Carolina Santiago Macasaet, daughter of owner Carmelo L. Santiago, known as “Melo”.

 

Melo’s is well liked for giving its patrons the best quality beef and a matching quality of service.  For 20 years, it’s been the prime restaurant that provides the best Certified Angus Beef… now, it’s making waves for making available in their menu the world’s best-known beef… Wagyu.  It’s the softest beef you can ever find that will melt in your mouth and not in your knife.  And that’s basically what I want my dad to try, hopefully melting his heart through his stomach.

 

 

Luckily, Melo’s came up with their Fathers’ Day Special called “Steak ala Dad”, featuring Melo’s signature Wagyu Tenderloin seasoned with Al Funghi Porcini Sauce.

 

 

Steak ala Dad is the latest creation Melo’s cooked up to commemorate all the dads for their hard work, dedication and love for their families.  Dads can actually personalize their own steaks. 

 

“Here at Melo’s, we make sure we give our guest what they want–how they want their steak, how thick they want their steak to be and many other requests they may have,” she discusses.

 

Steaks placed on Melo’s tables are carefully cooked and grilled to perfection.  Always aiming for personalized service and impeccable food, Melo’s guarantees an unforgettable dining.

 

So if you want to express just how grateful you are to your dad without speaking, show it through a hearty, meaty meal.  Make your way to Melo’s and let Steak Ala Dad be the best Father’s Day gift he could ever receive.  It’s never too late!  Steak ala Dad is available until June 30, 2010

 

My date with my dad is this week! ;)   Steak and bonding time!

SPURS’ Richard Jefferson Got Cold Feet

Thursday, July 16th, 2009

 

NBA star Richard Jefferson called off the wedding ceremony a few days before the big day. 

 

He broke up with his fiancee and reasons are still unknown. 

 

Jefferson was scheduled to marry former New Jersery Nets dancer Kesha Ni’Cole Nichols at the Mandarin Oriental in New York City.    Although the ceremony was canceled days before dooms day, many guests were left unnotified thus showing up at the venue expecting to see the wedding go as planned.  

 

Kesha Ni’Cole Nichols must have been pretty upset to let the supposedly “USD 2 million” wedding go kaput.  

Buzz online are flourishing now about Jefferson being gay or Kesha being a gold digger, when in fact, neither might be the case.
