Blé: Real Greek Food

Bringing the food expedition to the Parañaque area, my cousin and I visited Blé along Aguirre Avenue. We were greeted by blue and white interiors. The place was quite small. Good thing it was only me and my cousin dining at that time so it felt like we had the whole place to ourselves.
Blé has a newer and bigger branch at El Grande Ave called Blé+. Some of their menu items are only available at that new branch.

This restaurant has also been recognized as one of the best new restaurants.

We are curious about what Greek food tastes like. For this visit, we tried their meat in the form of a souvlaki and kebabs.

Tenderlion Souvlaki

Meat, tomatoes, tzatziki, and more, wrapped in a pita bread. The tenderloin was definitely all meat with just the right mix tenderness and chewiness.


Yougurtlu Kebab
This comes with our own choice of 2 sticks, plus chopped pita, plus a drizzle of Greek yogurt and special tomato sauce. We had the chicken skewer and lamb skewer.

The chicken meat was tasty throughout. You can taste the spices up to the center of the fillet. It was tender too.

There aren't many places around where you can get lamb meat so we marked it as a must try for this visit. The ground lamb meat kebab was slightly crispy outside, a little crumbly inside, and has a different taste of meat with spices all over.


Baklava

Layers of phyllo pastry with pistachios soaked in a special syrup was our dessert for the day. The pastry has some kind of chewy feel to it (reminiscent of, but less chewy than mochi). Finely chopped pistachios can be spotted in between some layers. I like that the syrup was not overpoweringly sweet, but sweet enough to go with the pastry.


Frappe and Strawberry Shake (with Greek yogurt and honey)

It was a really hot day so we ordered some drinks to cool down. My cousin ordered the Frappe while I had the Strawberry yogurt shake.

Satisfied our Greek food craving right here! We would like to try the moussaka and falafel next time. And maybe try some dishes only served at their El Grande Branch.

Branch visited located at: 188B Aguirre ave., BF Homes, Parañaque
