Korea’s original wine and garlic restaurant, Mad For Garlic, is now in the Philippines, ready to serve Filipinos a unique dining experience of Italian cuisine with an Asian twist!

Located in Bonifacio Global City, Mad for Garlic has been brought in by Global Restaurant Concepts, Inc., the same name behind popular dining establishments like California Pizza Kitchen, PF Chang’s, Morelli’s Gelato, IHOP, and Gyu-Kaku.

Mad for Garlic
Mad for Garlic opens its first location in the Philippines

I had my father in mind the moment I heard of Mad for Garlic. He’s a garlic guy, always adding garlic (sometimes too much but I’m not complaining) in our dishes at home.

Dracula Killer
Dracula Killer: Soft garlic bread, served with garlic cooked in olive oil and anchovies (P195)

First on our menu is this Dracula Killer, which I think is a perfect way to start our tongue with garlic.

Caprese Salad
Caprese Salad: Fresh tomato and mozzarella cheese with traditional basil dressing

This one’s a first for me. I have never eaten cheese like this before.

Tutto Mushroom Salad
Tutto Mushroom Salad: Garlic and Rosemary Marinated Mushroom Salad served in Teriyaki Sauce with Grilled Red Pepper, Asparagus and Arugula (P665)

Not a meat lover? This salad is a treat for you.

Gorgonzola Pizza
Gorgonzola Pizza: Pizza with Gorgonzola cheese served with honey (P475)

Mad for Garlic is a wine and garlic restaurant that showcases garlic-themed dishes using different varieties of garlic and cuts in a modern wine bar setting.

Dancing Salsa Rice with Steak
Dancing Salsa Rice with Steak: Garlic Rice served with Wine-Marinated Beef, topped with Fresh Bean Sprout and Fried Egg (P295)

Mad for Garlic offer a menu of pasta, pizza, salads, rice dishes, steaks and desserts highlighted with a touch or more of garlic.

Yuja_Ade
Yuja_Ade: Korean traditional herb tea made of yuja fruit preserved in honey (P110)

This Yuja Ade is refreshing and perfectly matches Mad for Garlic dishes.

Wine_Ade
Wine_Ade: A unique concoction of red wine and soda (P170)

I’m not a wine guy so it’s better to try it for yourself. =)

Garlic Snowing Pizza

This one’s a real winner! I’ll be back for more of this pizza!

Zuppa di Pesce
Zuppa di Pesce: Special Spicy Soup with Various Kinds of Seafood (Served with Bread)

Like its name, Zuppa di Pesce, I find it hard to describe this dish but not that I don’t like it. If you’re a regular reader of my food blog, you understand that I’m not the foodie guy who knows the smallest details in a food. I just like eating and I like to eat this one.

Crab Lobster Pasta
Crab Lobster Pasta: Garlic Cream Sauce Pasta rich in
crab and lobster meat

Not too garlicky, the way I want it.

Garlic Sprinkle Gelato
Garlic Sprinkle Gelato: Mad for Garlic’s special garlic ice cream served in chocolate covered glass with garlic cookie

This gelato’s a bit garlicky for me.

Cheese Cake

For garlic lovers out there, I know you don’t need any word from me. Go ahead and experience Mad for Garlic yourself!

For the ones not a fan of garlic, try Mad for Garlic offerings, you’d be glad if they changed your mind.
