Make it a date with Dad at Casa Luisa this Father's Day 2023:
Casa Luisa's premises have long offered a treat for the senses as their space flaunts a calming, homey atmosphere—and for they've come up with a "collaborative" Father's Day menu (P3,700+/person, including two non-alcoholic drinks) by their own Jen Gerodias in tandem with Babu and Himpossible Recipes' Chef Him Uy de Baron. Described to be Filipino-inspired "with Japanese and French influences," the menu aims to highlight "beautiful, locally sourced ingredients" from local farm producers. "With our commitment to supporting Philippine farmers, our chefs have curated a menu which uses the best local products designed to celebrate our dads," Casa Luisa writes.
The Father's Day menu opens with Sinuglaw using Esguerra Kurobuta pork cheeks and belly paired with burong mangga and Le Petit Ferme lettuce, then dives down and under the sea with the River Prawn Thermidor using wild-caught ulang from Pampanga. From there, they'll be serving Casa Luisa's famous Beef Wellington—their take on the French classic using their own all-butter pastry, served with a kaldereta-inspired brandy demi-glace—plus Sagada Mushroom Kamameshi Rice (made with wild Sagada mushrooms!) on the side. PB&J Alaska serves as your dessert before the meal wraps up with ice-cold Seasonal Fruits. These will be served family-style.
Slots are highly limited—as of writing they have only few seats left for lunch and dinner on June 18, so don't even wait! Go ahead and send them a message on Facebook or Instagram to place your reservations.
Apart from hosting private dining, Casa Luisa is also known for their pies and pastries—many of which also use local and seasonal ingredients. They also take orders for their signature bakes (some of which are the Mango Sampaguita Cheese Pie, French Onion Soup Empanadas, and Macapuno Dayap Napoleones) for delivery to Manila on a weekly basis.
Casa Luisa is at Magsaysay Road, Barangay San Antonio, San Pedro, Laguna. For reservations, send a message to Casa Luisa on Facebook or Instagram.
