🍽️ Discovering the Savory Side of The French Baker Philippines

 

If you’ve only known The French Baker for their freshly baked pastries and breads, it’s time to take things up a notch. πŸ‡«πŸ‡·✨ Because beyond those buttery croissants and warm baguettes lies a menu packed with flavorful dishes that prove they’re not just a bakery — they’re a full-blown dining experience.

Recently, we revisited The French Baker Philippines to see what their main dishes had to offer, and trust us — we walked out with happy hearts and fuller tummies. From their Pork Chop au Poivre to their Hickory BBQ Pork Spareribs, each dish had its own character, all sharing that signature French Baker quality and comfort. ❤️


πŸ₯© Pork Chop au Poivre — Peppery, Juicy, and Packed with Flavor

Let’s start with the star of our meal — the Pork Chop au Poivre. It’s everything you’d want from a good pork chop: thick, juicy, and cooked to perfection. The peppercorn sauce gives it that bold kick, balancing the richness of the meat with just the right spice.

Each bite feels indulgent yet comforting — the kind of dish that makes you go “I didn’t expect this from a bakery!” If you’re someone who loves well-seasoned, flavorful meats, this one’s a solid must-try. πŸ–✨


πŸ– Hickory BBQ Pork Spareribs — Smoky, Tender, and Oh-So-Satisfying

Next up, the Hickory BBQ Pork Spareribs — fall-off-the-bone tender and bursting with that sweet, smoky hickory flavor. The sauce is sticky and rich, coating each rib beautifully without being too heavy.

This dish alone could easily make you a regular. Pair it with rice or a side of mashed potatoes, and you’ve got a meal that feels like a warm weekend feast.

Among everything we tried, the ribs were hands-down the highlight — flavorful enough to stand on their own but still balanced enough that you won’t get tired halfway through.


πŸ₯— Chicken Caesar Salad — Crisp, Fresh, and Lightly Creamy

After two hearty mains, the Chicken Caesar Salad was the perfect palate cleanser. The greens were fresh and crisp, the dressing creamy but not overpowering, and the grilled chicken was tender with a subtle charred flavor that tied everything together.

It’s a refreshing companion to heavier dishes — ideal if you want something light yet still satisfying. πŸ₯¬


🍨 Chocolate Sundae — A Sweet Ending Worth Every Spoonful

Of course, no meal is complete without dessert. Their Chocolate Sundae delivered pure happiness in a cup — smooth, rich, and perfectly sweet. The chocolate flavor isn’t cloying; it’s balanced just right, making it a delightful way to end your meal.

It’s simple, nostalgic, and just the right size to satisfy your sweet tooth without going overboard. 🍫🍦
