Trattoria Altrove in BF Homes

Hubby and I love pizza and we've been meaning to try out Trattoria Altrove in BF Homes for quite some time now. And finally, we got to have lunch here on one random weekday.

I actually didn't know that this restaurant originated from El Nido Palawan where it has quite a following. I guess that explains the ambiance and look of the place. It feels like you're in a spa or out of town and not in the middle of BF.

The first thing they did when we entered was ask us to remove our shoes which they placed in a basket. We were given a number so we could collect our shoes after.

I don't know about you but I liked being barefoot haha! If felt like we were just at home and my 3 year old definitely enjoyed walking around. And don't worry, the floors were very clean. But if you don't like being barefoot, I saw that they sell hotel slippers for about P50 or just be prepared and wear socks.

One thing though, there's no aircon at all. Since it was summer, it was kinda hot and humid especially since we were here for lunch.

The ceiling fans were very helpful though. And ask for a seat outside near the garden since it's way cooler there.

Here's their menu:

We were served complimentary bread as an appetizer.

For the pizza, we ordered the Pancetta con Tartufo (P620) which is truffle cream with bacon, mozzarella cheese and a dash of oregano. Hubby and I love anything with truffle so this was so good for us! You could really taste the freshness of the ingredients.

For our pasta, we got the Lasagna (P330), layers of flat pasta drowed in tomatoes, ground beef, mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese and bechamel sauce freshly baked in their brick oven. You could really see all the layers and I felt so full after having just a few bites.

Take note, they didn't accept credit cards when we dined there. I know they've been open for quite some time now so I don't know if this is really their policy. But just make sure you have enough cash when you eat here.

Overall, I loved the feel and ambiance of the place. The food and service were also great. We will definitely be back hopefully at night for a romantic date. ;p
