Almost an hour or more roaming around Greenbelt Mall in Makati City, sitting on the bench to relax our tired feet, it was dinner time and we’re craving on Pizza, so we get around Greenbelt 5 and i’ve notice on the 2nd level that there’s a pizza restaurant on it, the name of the restaurant is California Pizza Kitchen.

As a pizza enthusiast as what I’ve heard that this pizza restaurant started out in Beverly Hills, California in USA on March 27, 1985, attorneys Rick Rosenfield and Larry Flax traded in the courtroom for the dining room. It was in 1998 when California Pizza Kitchen opened in the Philippines, making it as the first restaurant branch to operate outside the United States. Global Restaurant Concepts Incorporated (GRCI), the exclusive franchisee of CPK in the Philippines, brought the world-famous gourmet pizza brand to Glorietta Mall in Makati City and introduced its diverse products and unique dining culture to the Filipinos. The phenomenal opening of CPK Glorietta led to the establishment of other CPK stores in the key parts of Metro Manila: Alabang Town Center, Shangri-La Plaza Mall, Greenhills Promenade, Trinoma and the Powerplant Mall in Rockwell.

Today, California Pizza Kitchen is one of the most respected and recognized casual dining restaurants in the Philippines.

It was my first time to dined in this restaurant so 1st I ordered their one of the best seller pizza the Original Barbeque Chicken Pizza Regular at 375.00 (Good for 3 to 4 persons) which is made of BBQ sauce, smoked Gouda, Mozzarella, BBQ chicken, red onions and cilantro. The taste was very good, it’s a pizza with a twist of barbecue, love the taste of it.

2nd I ordered Garlic Cream Chicken Fettucine Pasta at 270.00 pesos it is made of chunks of chicken, garlic-parmesan cream sauce with parsley. They combining the fresh ingredients. The taste of the pasta is very good, creamy and saucy, two thumbs up.

and lastly we ordered two Raspberry Ice Tea at 93.75 pesos each for our drinks.

Overall the service is good, we enjoyed the good meal, the price is reasonable we billed 931.34 pesos with a service charge. They are truly a passport to a one of a kind meal.
