After coming from BIR makati branch to process some papers we headed to Ara Korean Restaurant since it's the nearest place just across the BIR bldg.

I've never been to any korean resto like ARA which offers an array of complimentary appetizers :)

At first we were so naive and thinking "oh no, we didn't order for this, they might have been mistaken" but observing quietly the other korean customers we realized "ok, it's a complimentary :)" but it juz didn't end there... they have the complimentary hot ginger lemon tea and sweet delicious pineapple desert, freshly cut and nicely prepared. By that, you'll almost feel full juz by looking at the foods and if you're not really that hungry hehe.

Anyway, in spite of all the complimentaries we wanted to try their version of "tofu stew" for only P280 which is actually good for 2-3 persons or even 4 depending on your appetite. It's hot on the pot. Good mixture of soup, it's nicely done. The tofu is soft and the broth tastes good.

I'm not really so sure if it's a fine dining resto as what the name on the receipt suggests but it looks like it's not :P Nevertheless, we really had a wonderful meal and great experience dining in Ara. We'll try to be back and try their other dishes :)
