I was with Jopads and Aiz Lee after a long day at work. I was supposed to go swimming to burn down some calories of the heavy meals that I have days before but had to postpone it for the next day since things were really crazy at work.

A busy day usually ends up with a hungry or an empty stomach. The one piece chicken meal, the macaroni salad and the mango-yogurt krusher from KFC (the slowest fast food there is) that I had for lunch was long gone. We went to the Ayala Center and dined at the Spaghetti Factory.  They have a lot of choices from appetizers, to salad, pizza, pasta and dessert. The best thing bout this restaurant is that you can can pick the pasta that you want if you order their pasta dish. 

Jopads had ; color: red;">Creamy Ham and Mushroom (Ham, olive oil, garlic, mushroom, tomatoes, cream & parsley) with farfalle (bow tie pasta). Aiz had Carbonara Alla Elizabeta (Ham, egg, bacon & their secret herb cream sauce) with fusilli (twisted spaghetti). Their pastas are served with focaccia bread.  I on the other hand went for their Norwegian Salmon with mango and mustard sauce.

It takes 15 minute tops of waiting to get the food served which gives us enough time to look around. The restaurant was in an all orange hue which for that moment doesn't appeal to my eyes that much maybe because I am wearing an orange shirt and carrying a red-orange duffel bag. On another occasion I may have liked it.

The food was served on time and to our delight black pepper is freshly grounded in front of us. The Parmesan cheese is also freshly grated. Well that explains the 8% service charge (hehehehehe). The pasta was perfectly cooked and it tastes very good. Comparing the two pasta the creamy ham and mushroom in a tomato based sauce tastes better compared to the carbonara. The carbonara  really tastes good but I just favored the other one. My salmon was served with rice and buttered veggies  and it all looks yummy and creamy with the mango-mustard sauce. I am a very big fan of salmon and the salmon just tasted right. The sweet, creamy flavor or mango went well with the hot and spicy flavor of the mustard.  The buttered veggies on the side was crispy and cooked just right. I've cleaned my plate and only left the bones of the salmon.

Over all the dining experience is great. The food is delectable which is very very important.
