While anticipating the most awaited dinner, I started with my favorite walnut bread. We were then given a complimentary white wine (so delicious) and an amuse-bouche of asparagus spear with herring caviar and truffle mousse (perfect to get the appetite going).

Salmon Duo | Crab Salad

Beef Carpaccio

Impressions's Trio Appetizer Sampler

Crab with Romaine Salad, Celery, Green Beans and Green Apples Tossed in Truffle Mayonnaise Dressing (Very light in flavor paired with the crunchy texture of the greens and apple)

Duo of Salmon “Demi Deuil” : Marinated Salmon with Truffle Sauce and Smoked Salmon with Herring Caviar, Green Pea Hummus (Definitely a crowd-pleaser)

Beef Carpaccio, Arugula Salad with Parmesan Cheese and Dijonnaise Sauce (I would order this again and again and again)

Duck Liver Terrine

Pan-seared Foie Gras

Foie Gras Salad - we just can't get enough!

Terrine of Duck Liver Medoc with Mesclun Salad and Beetroot Foam

Duck Liver Terrine de Foie Gras de Canard, Grilled Eel

Seared and Lacquered Duck Liver, (ripe and green) Mango Rougail Roll in a Crepe with Plum Sauce (My personal pick. Distinctive peking duck flavor was achieved in this exemplary foie gras salad)

Veal Sweetbread | Steamed Codfish

Main Entrées (yes, that's two so better save room for these)

Veal Sweetbread with Truffle Risotto and Porcini in Parsley Cream Sauce (Did you know that the sweetbread is one of the most valued part of a cattle?! Gotta try this one to know why)

Steamed Cod Fish, Crumble of Chorizo with Ginger and Lemongrass Emulsion

Mignardises - hazelnut chocolate, passionfruit pastilles, orange macarons

Oooh, we got a plate of Impressions treats before our main dessert. What?! Dessert before a dessert? YES!!! There were a bit more pastilles before I took this photo. I wonder where they went? *burp*

Berries Tiramisu

Heavenly Impressions Desserts

Strawberry/Mixed Berry Tiramisu (Best I've had -- ever!)

Dark Chocolate Soufflé with Coconut Crème Anglaise

Dark Chocolate Souffle

Impressions's chocolate souffle was to die for. Even Karmina De Ungria, PR Supervisor at Resorts World Manila, exclaimed: "Excuse my french (no pun intended, for the french chef who made it possible), but the souffle was orgasmic!"

Do not let the moment pass. Call Impressions now to book a table and experience the PERFECT 10 FEAST :)
