ROC: A New Resto at UP Diliman

Another restaurant was born at the University of the Philippines, Diliman, Quezon City. ROC restaurant is located at the left side, ground floor of the UP Bahay ng Alumni near the Veteran's Bank just below the second floor branch of Chocolate Kiss, another resto which serves delicious cakes, honey sweetened iced tea and good dishes.
ROC's menu consists of fusion Filipino dishes. We ordered lechon kawali with kangkong and gata sauce, Dory fish wrapped in creamy spinach and garlic chicken fillet. Dishes at ROC's are prepared ala French style, the only difference is the taste and ingredients - their sauce use ingredients like gata and the vegetable side dishes are pumpkins, carrots and green beans. In general, we enjoyed the unique and tasty food we ordered. However, when we tried one of their chocolate cakes, we think the cakes from Chocolate Kiss are better. ROC's was still in its soft opening stage when we went there last April 2009. So expect new recipes and changes in their menu as they recieve feedback from their costumers. We are looking forward to try their other food choices.

Place looks like a more affordable alternative to Chocolate Kiss when in the area. The latter to be chosen for cakes only. ;)
