One night, after we (my sis in law & I) closed the mall, as in, we waited til mall's closing hour, occupied ourselves with all the dress shops and window shopping; we're set for dinner. We're keen on the usual Plazuela dinner at Steps of Rome but decided to head to Smallville Complex at the last minute. There we discovered our what we call "will be our favorite restaurant of them all".  Sure enough, few days later we came back to dine.

A complimentary bread for dipping in a tangy soy and olive oil dip with parmesan cheese is 

served upon sitting. If you are a light eater, easy on this for it could be filling!

We love the Prawn and Grape Salad. Amalfi servings could easily be shared by 2 non-voracious eaters. Not a problem with me since I'm with very picky and light eaters. Four girls get to share this one serving!

The seafood pasta, Al Frutta Di mare. We love the big chunks of fish and squid. 

We opted for the linguine pasta. 

A personal favorite, Manzo Alla Griglia Con Funghi. 

Best of the house, Steak Florentine. Although, we found it a little dry that night. 

Still, we love it's taste and sauce.

Our choice of wine, Ventisquero. We love Chilean Merlot for it's relaxing buzz 

which makes us more chatty hahaha!

Of course, desserts! 

Panna Cotta, Tiramisu and Cassata Siciliana.

By this time, we're already full 

and happily chatting the night away!

We love it in Amalfi, the classy, cool and elegant interior design, well appointed tables and chairs which set a comfortable and engaging mood for the guests and intimate atmosphere of the restaurant. 

We love the food and elegant presentation add to this, the attentive and efficient staff, 

Amalfi live up to it's name as one of Philippines Best Restaurants.
