Chez Nous by Chippens is just one of those restaurants near our office that I have heard a lot of good things about.
Wanting to try somewhere else for lunch, I visited Chez Nous to check out what they have to offer.
THE PLACE
I love Chez Nous’ homey feel. However, the place was a bit dark, it was not easy to take photos. The restaurant has seats for groups, couples, and solo diners.
THE FOOD
Chez Nous does not have a certain cuisine, they have a combination of Western, European, and Asian dishes. I think the dishes are reasonably priced based on the quality and serving portions of my orders.
For my lunch, I ordered the Cajun Shrimps (175) to start the meal; then the Honey Barbecue Glazed Pork Ribs (P225) for my main course; and a Triple Layer Chocolate Mousse (P195) for dessert.
The Cajun Shrimps was a great way to start the meal. I love the combination of the heat from the shrimps and the coolness from the mango mousse and salsa. It really got my appetite going.
I also enjoyed the Honey Barbecue Glazed Pork Ribs. The pork ribs were tender and the honey barbecue sauce was delicious. I also think that the pork floss added color to the dish.
The Triple Layer Chocolate Mousse was wonderful! It was a layer of dark, white, and milk chocolate mousse, which went well together. I love how it was not very sweet. The dessert also came with a scoop of Vanilla ice cream, which was also good.
THE SERVICE
The service I experienced here was great. The staff were friendly, efficient, and proactive.
After they took my orders, they immediately set my table. My water was also constantly refilled.
I like the pacing of the service. My Cajun Shrimps were served after around 15 minutes. Then my main course was served 10 minutes later. My dessert was served around five minutes after I requested it to be served.
BOTTOM LINE
I had a pleasant experience at Chez Nous by Chippens. The food and the service were both great. I would definitely come back here any time soon. For those looking for a nice place to have dinner in Davao City, I recommend dropping by at this restaurant.
