Back in 2012, during my preparations for my daughter's baptism I chance upon a caterer that really caught my attention. I was actually looking for a caterer who does not only serve good food but was also excellent with decorating. I was planning to have flowers & butterflies theme for the reception and when I saw Passion Cooks Catering's multiply I knew this was the one. I've read from other blogs that their food is really good. And all the photos of their "themed events" is just awesome.

But unfortunately their service is too expensive for my budget. Being a student who just depends on her mother I really need to minimize the expenses for this event because as long as I'm studying it'll be my mom who will spend the most for my daughter.
A year later I found out that they'll be opening a restaurant in BF Homes, Paranaque and the menu will include their best selling dishes. I was really delighted with this news. Finally, I'll get to try their food.

| NOW OPEN |
I actually visited their restaurant on their first week but I went there to eat (not to blog). I was able to try their "Clone Crepes" which is Chicken and Ham crepes and the Three Mushroom and Truffle Pasta. Both we're really good.
On my next visit I brought the entire gang with me. The more I bring the more food I'll get to try. YEAY. Maja's Home Cafe is actually a theme restaurant. (Oh and a lot of their decors are DIY.)

The interiors would really excite the kids and the kids at heart. Like my daughter who didn't stop walking around until the food arrived. The kids were all giggly because of all the toy decorations.
THE FOOD
 |
| Bacon and Banana Rolls |
I like the bacon in this dish. (Who doesn't like bacon?) It was so soft, melts in your mouth but I didn't like it that way. And for me it was too sweet, I didn't even try it with the dip.
 |
| Chicken and Ham crepe |
This was nice. Crunchy on the outside juicy in the inside. My niece and daughter liked it. I tried cooking this at home and I was able to make a 95% replica of this.
 |
| Grilled Pork Ribs with Herbed Cream Cheese |
I wanted to order this but Kevin ordered the same so I decided to change mine. This was good. I really liked it. It reminds me of the late Garlic Cream Hamburg of Tokyo Cafe. We both didn't like the apple. Or maybe because those were fruits not meat. haha This also comes with a cup of steamed rice.
 |
| Roast Beef with Creamy Potatoes |
This is what I ordered. I didn't like it. The beef was too dry for my liking. The sauce on top was the same gravy for the Chicken and Ham crepe, only it had mushrooms. On the other hand the creamy potatoes we're so good. I wish I could order another serving of this. This was like the potato gratin I so love in Enderun's cafeteria, only this was better.
(UPDATE: During this visit it's just the beef and potatoes served but when we visited few weeks ago there was an additional rice, I don't know if the 1st was a mistake or they have decided to add rice)

| Stark Juice - Tropical Fruit Juice with Orange Pulp |
 |
| Chocolate Lazy Cake |
I find nothing extra ordinary with this. A lot of the reviews I've read about Passion Cooks Catering said that this was the best. For me it isn't. But it was good especially with the ice cream. Just good.

| Busog na daw sya. :) |
If you're craving for some good food this place is worth to visit. I would definitely go back. This is actually my kind of comfort food. I would love to try their other dishes. Wagyughetti and Baked Prawns Thermidor my next in line.
