With posh and elegant surroundings, it screams fine-dine but with a comfortable feel. I rarely venture to this part of Metro Manila, but we were recently invited for a Zomato FMU and I just couldn 't pass up the chance. Ambiance was amazing without being too intimidating, and service was top-notch! But we 're really here for the food, right? Let 's get to it! STARTERS: Coconut Flamed Foie Gras Foie Gras which is French for fat liver and considered by many as a delicacy, Ruby Jack 's version was to die for. It has a rich and smooth melt-in-your-mouth texture. It 's delicate and perfectly paired with the sweet and tangy caramelized pineapple. The bits of cashew gave it a nice contrast to its soft texture. Black Angus Carpaccio Carpaccio, a thinly sliced raw meat, was an elegant hors d 'oeuvre to our lunch. Presented beautifully and topped with fresh tomatoes and rocket leaves, it is both a feast on the eyes and the stomach. It has a soft and tender texture with a fresh and delectable taste. The homemade ricotta was a nice addition as it gave the dish a meaty creamy flavor. Sizzling Scallops All that glistening shio butter didn’t help me at resisting this dish, at all. The scallops had the perfect texture, it was chewy without being rubbery and it was soft without being goopy. The butter brought out all sorts of flavor to it. MAINS Tomahawk Steak I guess it 's safe to say that everyone got really excited when this came out. I mean really, who wouldn 't be? Ideal for sharing due to its huge size and aptly named as it resembles the Tomahawk axe, this was the ultimate star of our lunch. Cooked medium rare, it is tender with an earthy and smokey taste. I really enjoyed it. Teppan Grilled Atlantic Salmon Salmon is my favorite fish. Ruby Jack’s version was beautifully presented, it has a mild creamy texture. It almost melts in your mouth upon each bite and very flavorful. Char Grilled Local Yellow Fin Tuna They served two versions of this dish, one was cooked medium rare and the other was well done. I tried both and I prefer the well done version. There is indeed a huge difference in taste depending on how it was cooked. Unlike the salmon which has a mild flavor, this one was bursting with flavor and has a beef-like texture. It is slightly sweet and dense, top quality tuna right there. SIDES Creamed Spinach It has a smooth and velvety texture, full of flavor and seasoned perfectly. I think I consumed half of the serving. Truffle Scented Cauliflower Gratin Creamy and tasty, there’s a nice crunch to the cauliflower which indicates that it was cooked perfectly and not overdone which sometimes happens to gratin dishes. The truffle was mild and not too overpowering which was a plus point for me. I couldn’t get enough of this dish, it was the perfect side dish with the Tomahawk Steak. DESSERT Pimm’s No. 1 Garden Lemon Cheesecake, Pimm’s No. 1 Jelly, Cucumber Ice Cream Pearls of Asia Lychee Agar Sorbet, Coconut Espuma, Tapioca Pineapple Olive Oil Pistachio Pound Cake Pistachio, Whipped Ricotta, Lavander, Jasmine Ice Cream Double Baked Sizzling Cheesecake Coriander Ice Cream, Salted Caramel Jaffa Chocolate Dome Chocolate Ice Cream, Jaffa Orange Agar Assorted Handmade Chocolates Bon Bons, Dark Peppermint, Nougat, Apple Pie with Streusel Crumbles, Tiramisu Okay, it’s kinda hard to choose the best from all these mouth-watering desserts. Seriously, everything was plated beautifully I almost didn’t want to touch it. Almost. Well, my top 2 picks would probably be the Double Baked Sizzling Cheesecake and the Pimm’s No. 1 Garden. Sizzling Cheesecake, wait what? Yes, sizzling cheesecake, folks! The cheesecake was served on a piping hot stone plate, then the salted caramel sauce was poured and just hear it sizzle! It was smooth and fluffy, sweet and sinful. I loved it! The caramel sauce created a beautiful velvety texture to the cheesecake which will make you come back for more. The Pimm’s No. 1 Garden on the other hand was a nice palate cleanser, it has a refreshing and clean-tasting feel. Plus it was just too pretty, perfect for the ‘gram! Overall, it was an amazing experience dining at Ruby Jack’s. Impeccable service with top-quality divine dishes! I’d recommend this place for date night or a get-together with friends. Price point is good considering all those amazingly good food. If you’re looking for your next steakhouse place, Ruby Jack’s it is! China Zomato China
