Last night I went to La BUSA Italian Restaurant & Bar with my CBSi pals to check out the newly opened place.  We were entertained by Stefano Quaquarelli, the chef and owner of the resto.  We had a good time checking their menu while catching up with each other.

La BUSA is located at the ground floor of  Tsai Hotel and Residences.  It is a few walks away from JY Square Mall in Lahug.

Highly Recommended Courses in the Menu

Chef Stefanno assured us that all foods in their menu are cooked from fresh ingredients.  He goes to the market daily to buy them.  I assume that the restaurant is a family business because he is running it along with his mom.  The two of them were quite busy in the kitchen when we arrived.

Braciola Di Maiale Pan Seared Pork Chop with Saute Beans – definitely a must try.

Lasagna Classic Italian Recipe – nothing can go wrong with this one.

Highly Recommended Desserts

All their desserts are super yummy.  Unfortunately, I haven’t tasted their Panna Cotta because they run out of ingredients. ):

Tiramisu

Cheese Cake in a Glass

Apple Pie

The Interior

Menu and Prices

Compared to other Italian restaurants, La BUSA has more reasonable prices and much much cheaper than Italiannis in Ayala Terraces.  Click image below to clearly see the menu.
