Silantro Fil-Mex Cantina

I love visiting Tagaytay and I was hoping they offered a variety of food options except for the usual fast food flair. When Silantro opened in Ayala Malls Serin in Tagaytay, I knew I had to visit it one way or another. I visited during their Soft Opening and from that point forward, it has always been jam-packed with people queuing outside.

I always enjoyed soft shell tacos and burritos so it was no surprise to order some. I regret not bringing friends with me, the serving was crazy huge for one person! I have an appetite of a cow but heck the serving was just too much for me. In all honesty, it was enough to feed 3 to 4 people.

They had an amazing space for all patrons. Tables that can seat friends, lovers on a date and a family table at the back for friends and family bonding over Mexican food. Service was really good, all the servers were very polite and tended to our needs as soon as they can.

The Burrito as seen on the photo is humongous! I was only able to finish half of it and bring home the other half for breakfast the next day. It had everything good, rice, beans, meat and that sauce was utterly mouthwatering. There was magic when you drizzle it with the white sauce. Going over this today just made me want to visit again.

The Beef Quesadilla looked a bit odd. I don't particularly liked the texture. It looked like meat patty, sticky and gooey from the cheese they used. Nope. The fries looked and tasted homemade - less salt and just had enough crisp to it. Each item comes with a tri-color dip: the green one was good, it tasted like avocado with yogurt; the white one had a garlic taste to it and my favorite among the three; and lastly the red one which as you guessed was super spicy.

The soft shell taco was the bomb! I highly recommend the Completo which allows you to have 3 meat options. I selected pork, chicken and beef. I loved the variation of texture and taste. I may try the lengua next time.
