Tanglad Bistro: Tagaytay’s Soul Satisfying Breeze Found in Surprising Dishes

Tucked away in the idyllic landscape of Tagaytay City lies Tanglad Bistro, a luxury dining venue with doors that open to a complete soulful respite: where a symphony of flavors entices the discriminating palates; where the soothing aroma of fresh herbs, fruit-bearing plants swathe in the air; where the sonata of humming trees and chirping birds come into play.

Tanglad Bistro has an extensive ever-growing carefully etched menu, a fusion of European and Asian flavors. It isn’t a secret that in this bistro the humbly tanglad stalk (or lemongrass), cultivated mainly for the calming effect of its scent and for the therapeutic value of its leaves, is given a twist and taken as a prime ingredient to a wealth of healthy gustatory concoctions.

Extremely popular among Tanglad Bistro’s signature succulent dishes is the refreshing twist of Tanglad Seafood Pasta, a symphony of crab, scallops and shrimps highlighted with notes of light, citrusy tanglad; the Grandma’s Chicken Pork Adobo, a quintessential Filipino dish with a unique flair; the irresistible stripped-to-the-bone Special Baby Back Ribs oozing with rich flavors; the Lemongrass Skewer, a healthy array of grilled fresh meat and veggies, among many others.

Tanglad’s versatility is also whipped into guilt-free yet soul-satisfying desserts that slip down delightfully at the end of a meal like the luscious, softly set and creamy Lemongrass Pana Cotta with Berries Confetti and ever-tempting scrumptious caramelized crisp Suman Fritters with Tsokolate.

Passion for Good Food

The menu admits strong leaning to the tradition of sublime culinary quality and taste developed by the Versoza family of the renowned Josiah Catering where Chef Jasper Versoza, the man behind the discovery of Tanglad Bistro, comes from. The passion to concoct irresistibly good treat for the palate was acquired by Chef Jasper over the years of catering topnotch menu for practically all occasions.

With the opening of Tanglad Bistro in October 2009 Chef Jasper quipped: “We wanted to come up with something not merely new, but fresh, light and at the same time, something that makes a lasting impression to the palate”. At this bistro, he maintains a garden of fresh herbs and greens and meticulously prepares and serves freshly cooked healthy and hearty vegetarian and non-vegetarian meals for lunch and dinner that perfectly complements the invigorating spa treatments of the Nurture Spa.

The idea to celebrate tanglad as the main ingredient in the bistro’s plethora of mouth-watering dishes is as healthy as it is heartwarming. This humble stalk is not only an enticement to a whole new fine dining experience but it provides livelihood to the grassroots in western Visayas where the tanglad is widely cultivated. What’s more the lemongrass is said to have cancer-fighting and cleansing properties which makes it a good option to detoxify the body that results to better blood circulation and digestion.
