Pellegrino's may sound familiar to some of you who works at PhilamLife Tower in Paseo de Roxas Makati. Well, whatever you're thinking...you are right!
Pellegrino's full name is Pellegrino's Roasted Chicken Station and they have been serving roasted chickens, pork BBQ, Liempo and several side dishes from baked macaroni, coleslow, potato salad, corn to eggplant salad and a lot more! And they've been around for 4 years so I'm not surprised when the owners decided to expand. From food station, they also serve packed meals and party platters to companies and individuals.
YES, I know all this because the owner is my friend's sister!
Over the weekend, they delivered this wonderful Pellegrino's No Bake Blueberry Cheese Cake to our house and boy was I amazed on how different this taste from gazillions of Blueberry Cheese Cakes I've tried! And I mean it!
(not because she's a sister of a friend)
The Blueberry Cheese Cake from Pellegrino's is not too sour nor too sweet. I was told they use Pure Cream Cheese and no "extenders" were used so you get 100% pure goodness. On every bite, you get a hint of "tangy cream cheese flavor" with the fluffiness of a whipped cream. What sets this apart from other brands? The Crust! The crust is not the usual crushed graham crackers, instead, it is made with biscuits, cashew nuts for that unique "nutty" texture and flavor.
