I badly wanted to love the food here but sadly, the food didn’t love me back.

| French Onion Soup (200php) |
I’ve had my share of interesting French Onion Soup concoctions, but this one takes the cake. So salty that it is indigestible. Tastes likes soy sauce and it shows with the very dark shade of the stock. I can’t believe they allowed this to be served.
 |
| French Onion Soup Part Two |
I had the disastrous soup returned and the second attempt is not as salty because it has NO flavor. I gave up after a few sips and concluded that Borough is incapable of making French Onion soup.
 |
| Chips N Dip (110php) |
Nice and crispy because chips are made from real potatoes. Would have appreciated it however, if the server informed us that most of our orders have chips on the side. Chips overload!
 |
| BBQ Pulled Pork Sandwich (220php) |
The sandwich is thankfully a winner. Pork is tender with the right amount of tangy sauce for the needed kick. Huge portion makes this good for sharing.
 |
| Cheesy Portobello Pita (230php) |
Not a fan of mushrooms in general. Three words that came to mind while eating this: Interesting, Sinful, Fried
 |
| Spaghetti Carbonara (330php) |
I appreciate the subdued flavors but those who love their carbonara rich and creamy will be sorely disappointed.
With its respectable location, go to Borough for a nightcap when food expectations are at an all time low.
Borough is located at the G/F The Podium ADB Avenue Ortigas Center. Mandaluyong City. For more information, contact 5708906.

Sadly, the Portabello Mushroom Pita was no good. :( On paper, it seemed interesting and delicious, but it just fell flat. I was unable to finish it. And it wasn't as cheesy as promised.
Also, the chips were even too salty!!!
