French Baker - Washington

Its not a meeting if coffee is not involved. As a freelancer, I am hunting for places that can offer a good cup of Americano. And to my surprise, French Baker has that. It was brewed well and to my surprise, the coffee is not acidic. It had a smooth texture and as I drink it, there are floral and nutty notes that I can distinguish.

Positive side, the presentation and taste of food is good. Tried bolognese, fish and chips, tuna sandwich and iced tea.Serving size can be shared for two people. Quality of food and service is worth for what you pay for. Negative side, the location is near the event area so expect it to be noisy specially during weekends.

I think this branch has a wider selection compared to the one in SM City Manila. I was surprised that they offer macaroons and pizza. I was torn between the muffins and then pork floss but I chose the muffins instead. The blueberry flavored was good, it has enough moisture but I was expecting more flavor. You can see the bread being prepared at the back when you line up and pay at the cashier which makes me feel that their breads are freshly made.

I always order their carbonara and it's really exceptional. The place is crowded when we visited because its chinese new year. The downside is their AC. The outlet is open and relied so much to the mall's AC. And some of the tables are too small.

Me and my husband ate baked chicken and cordon bleu. the sauces compliments the chicken. too bad that my first option chicken gallantina was not available but lookinf forward to order it next time we dine again with them..
