Celebrating Family Birthdays at High Street Café [A Real Review]

I like to start my meal with a few slices of steak from the carving station, then I will have a salad for the sides and a few pieces of cold seafood like mussels and clams. 

After finishing my first plate, I would go to the Japanese food station to get a few pieces of sushi (I also usually get some slices of sashimi, but I skipped it this time). I like High Street Café’s sushi rolls; they’re fresh and delicious and I enjoy them so much. In fact, I just had to control myself from getting more since I still wanted to get food from the other food stations.

I also like to visit the grill station to get a few pieces of grilled river shrimp. I couldn’t forget the smoky, juicy, and plump river during our first visit so I just had to try this again. I think this was a hit with many diners because the lines are long and the shrimp are gone in an instant. 

In fact, the chef was still grilling the shrimp when I got to the station. Good thing I was first in line so I was able to get a few pieces of river shrimp immediately after they were done. I like the simplicity of this dish because it was just cooked in butter with a little salt as seasoning. The shrimp were fresh; the meat was sweet as such, you don’t need too much seasonings for it.

At this point, I’m already starting to get full, but I still like to taste some of the food items at the cheese and cold cuts station, and some more cold seafood. I only took a few pieces because I might not be able to finish them. Plus, I wanted to save room for some dessert because I know High Street Café has a good ice cream station and some of my favorite pastries.

When it was time for dessert, I requested a scoop of cheese and ube ice cream at the ice cream station. The cheese ice cream was phenomenal; I don’t know how to describe it but it was unlike any other cheese flavors I’ve tasted before. It was really good and I would encourage you to try it if ever you get to dine at High Street Café. I paired my ice cream with a few pieces of Brazo de Mercedes.

All in all, we had a wonderful family lunch and celebration at High Street Café. The atmosphere was also festive because of the coming holidays so everybody was in a jovial mood.
