'Cue Modern Barbecue: Meaty Madness at Bonifacio High Street Central

Offering a new wave of restaurants and high-end shops is the new Bonifacio High Street Central. My fellow foodies say that one of the best options to dine at there is 'Cue Modern Barbecue so naturally, I just had to try it out.

'Cue Modern Barbecue is brightly lit with different types of lighting.  It has a ceiling design covered in cow hide that's sure to attract your attention.  Along its walls, you could see the anatomy of beef, pork and lamb.  Surely, the clues they leave out makes you wanna order some meat!

Complimentary Popcorn

While waiting for our other companions, we were given their Complimentary Popcorn.  It had the right zing to it to whet your appetite.

Food

Smalls
I definitely don't agree that these are smalls by the way.  But, let me get on with the finger food shall we...

♥ Fried Buttermilk Wings (355 php)

The Fried Buttermilk Wings are sweet, maple-pepper glazed and panko crusted fried chicken wings. These are great starters.  It has the right amount of kick to get you started.  The crust is crunchy and the chicken meat was succulent.  Yum!

♥ Bone Marrow and Steak Tacos (485 php)

I don't know about you but I definitely can't resist a bone marrow when I see one.  Even at home, I'd struggle over the bone marrow in a bulalo and I'd pound it hard till I get every little bit of it as I can.  The Bone Marrow and Steak Tacos is a superb dish!  I ate it by placing some bone marrow, steak, sweet n' spicy salsa verde and roasted corn salsa on the mini flour tortilla.  As much as we love to eat bone marrows, we have to admit that its a bulk of oiliness can get overwhelming.  But when eaten together with the steak and the two kinds of salsa, it creates an awesome balance that will make you want to have more of it.

Salads

♥ Southern Greens Whole (355 php)

I always have my greens for a balanced and healthy meal.  The Southern Greens is a great option!  It's a mix of fresh and crispy romaine lettuce with crunchy green and red thin apple slices, candied walnuts drizzled with their light and refreshing special orange and creamy bleu cheese dressing.  I savored this as much as I could looking forward to a more meaty meal.  

Odds & Ends

♥ The House Burger (395 php)

The House Burger is a double 3 oz all-beef patty oozing with melted yellow cheddar on the top and seriously mature white cheddar in between.  It is also complete with the usual mixed ins like crispy lettuce, tomatoes, red onions drenched in their house-made ranch dressing sandwiched between butter grilled buns.  This is surprisingly, one of the best burgers that I have ever tried.  The  juicy all-beef patty with the works is just gastronomic.   

The Chopping Board (Good to Share and with side dish and sauce)

♥ Baby Back Ribs Wet Half Slab (645 php)

We had our Baby Back Ribs Wet as recommended by our server.  It was the right choice.  I loved the saucy goodness partnered with the tenderness of the baby back ribs.  The ribs are so soft, they almost fall of the bone.  I loved this!  

Beef Belly 250 gms (695 php)

The Beef Belly was served in a hot skillet pan.  It was dark ale-braised and then cooked until slightly charred.  It is mustard crusted with grilled onions on the side.  This is pretty good too.  

♥ Roasted Chicken Half with Crisp Onion Strings (405 php)

With or without the sauce, the golden salted-crusted Roasted Chicken won me over!  Upon slicing it, it was over flowing with juicy goodness that it almost slips of the chopping board.  It is one of the most savory and succulent roasted chicken I've ever encountered.  I highly recommend this.  We chose to have it with Crisp Onion Strings which is an great match.

♥ Lamb Ribs with Cue's Chili Monggo (680 php)

The Lamb Ribs is another rave-worthy dish.  It's a lean and mean meaty treat without any gamey taste.  We had it matched with Cue's Chili Monggo which is delicious with the sour cream on top.  

Endings 

Caramel Pecan Cheesecake (235 php)

The Caramel Pecan Cheesecake had a sweetness that could get too overwhelming because of the caramel on top and in between.  I also did not like its heavy-thick-moist consistency.  

♥ Chocolate Chip Cookie Cake (195 php)

The Chocolate Chip Cookie Cake is two big scoops of vanilla ice cream atop a muffin-sized chocolate chip cookie cake.   Although I'm not a chocolate chip cookie fan, I enjoyed the warm crunchy and crumb-y cookie cake.  This is just the perfect sweet ending for any meal.

Tsinoy Foodies Verdict
'Cue Modern Barbecue is the perfect hangout when craving for good food  especially "meat" with a cozy ambiance to boot.  Located at a the heart of the fast growing Bonifacio Global City, no wonder it has gained much attention from workers, residents and shoppers alike.  I can't wait to visit again once they release "coming soon!" items.
