Aristocrat Bakeshop

November 19, 2009 • Hello. I am currently out of the country and unable to respond to comments and e-mails. Rest assured, however, that future posts have been scheduled so new recipes will go live almost everyday during my absence. I'll be back soon with lots of stories and photos. Ciao for now! ~ Connie

The Aristocrat Restaurant is a landmark along Roxas Boulevard in the city of Manila. With the Manila Bay in front and the Malate Circle behind, its location cannot be any better. It’s a family restaurant that has served generations of satisfied customers. I am not very partial with Aristocrat Restaurant food though. What I am very particular about are the products in its bakeshop. Not the cakes but the breads–the croissants, the turnovers, the chicken pie and, my favorite of all, the Japanese bread, a sweet bread stuffed with meat, mushrooms, carrots and peas covered with a creamy crust.

When the kids were younger and we were still living in the city, Sunday trips to the Intramuros and Manila Bay areas inevitably led to visits to the Aristocrat Bakeshop. Because of the distance, we often bought enough baked goodies to last for at least three days. That’s one thing about Aristocrat breads–they’re good even after reheating. Just keep them well wrapped in the coldest section of the fridge then reheat in the oven.

The Aristocrat Bakeshop is open 24 hours a day and seven days a week. You can drop by any time to enjoy the baked products.

Stay updated!
