We're back... back to where it all started. :)
Cerchio is very special to us. It was were we had our first ever date. We went back a couple of days ago to celebrate our 3rd anniversary, and lo and behold, M had other plans. He proposed. So now, we're engaged! :)

The manager of Cerchio, who was also informed about the plan, was very accommodating. He offered to take our photos and suggested to have the photo op at the 2nd floor which was a closed area during that time. The second floor has function rooms great for small gatherings or meetings. They use it also, of course, when the first floor is full already.
The food, as expected, didn't disappoint. We ordered the Grilled Shimp with Pomelo which is one of my personal favorites. I love how charred the shrimp is and the vinaigrette is very flavorful, a great combination to the pomelo. Although their Bourbon Ribs could have been better with more serving, it was enough to satisfy our ribs craving. Take note that it doesn't have rice. Their Cerchio Chicken Bbq had a lot of serving. Java rice was good enough for two people. Unfortunately, one of the pieces had a very small insect in or on it, moving around.
Overall, aside from the delicious food and minimalist design (by the Almario sisters, like Romulo's), we love the place for its sentimental value, of course. No regrets having our first date there. :)
