Went to Animae with two friends and WOWZERS! A wonderful dining experience! Dining Space amazing! Service superb! Food incredible!
We went all out and ordered the Tuna Kinilaw, Apple Salad, Wagyu Corned Beef Fried Rice, Crispy Potatoes, Beef Cheek Dinuguan, Short Rib Kare Kare, Seabass Cha Ca, Saigon Mussels, and Hunan Lamb Chops.
EVERYTHING was delicious! Seriously, not a single disappointment. But let me tell you… the Seabass Cha Ca, Wagyu Corned Beef Fried Rice, Saigon Mussels, and Hunan Lamb Chops STOLE THE EFFING SHOW!
The Hunan Lamb Chops were incredibly tender, juicy, and bursting with flavor. Every bite was pure happiness!
The Saigon Mussels were phenomenal! The sauce?! OH MY GOODNESS! 🤯 I could have happily kept dipping into that sauce all night. Absolutely delicious!
But can we talk about the SEABASS CHA CA?! WOW!!! That dish deserves a standing ovation! The sea bass was absolutely amazing and that turmeric and dill butter sauce took it to another level. Pair it with the Wagyu Corned Beef Fried Rice and you’re in flavor heaven! I’m not exaggerating when I say I would go back to Animae just for that sea bass and rice! No joke!
And just when we thought the evening couldn’t get any better. We finished with the Sticky Rice Crème Brûlée. What a delicious way to end an already amazing meal! The perfect sweet finale to a fantastic dining experience.
If you’re planning to visit Animae. Do yourself a favor and order the Seabass Cha Ca, Saigon Mussels, Hunan Lamb Chops, and Wagyu Corned Beef Fried Rice, and definitely save room for dessert!
Animae, you absolutely knocked it out of the park! Thank you Chefs!
