A family that is a lover of food, for every birthday and occasion that we celebrate, we make it a point to try restaurants where reputable chefs are the head cook and that the ambiance calls for exclusivity. For my birthday dinner, my family and I reserved a table in Buenisimo by Cafe Ysabel. Their food are prepared by Chefs Gene, Gino and Giannina Gonzalez, so any diner could expect highly of the overall taste and presentation of the gourmet dishes. As for the place, I'd produly recommend it to anyone who has people-anxiety from time to time, just like me and my family. Besides, have I told you I've a soft spot for anyone whose name starts with a G? ;)
