Since the time my toddler had gone to school every Saturday for her music & dance class at Kindermusik, we make sure to have brunch (breakfast lunch) before going home at any food places nearby the school. Last weekend we have chosen to have brunch at Banapple located at Connecticut Street. Since Banapple is just few blocks away from the school, we just decided to walk. Anyways, the sunrays are not yet that hot to walk.
The food place of Banapple is very spacious and convenient. The interior is very welcoming and inviting to all age groups especially kids and young adults. The wall decors consist of book shelves cabinets. However, the books are just for display and not allowed to be read by guests. The tables and chairs are very colorful as well. The lights are perfect for a relaxing mode. Staffs are friendly. Overall, the ambience is very cozy.
The counter is displayed with various cheesecakes and pies that are really mouth-watering for those who have sweet-tooth.
One side of the counter is a rack filled with different breads and pastries. I want to take home everything in the rack for myself because I’m really a bread lover.
Then we started to order. For myself, I ordered for Chicken Breast Parmigiano. I also ordered for Banapple Smoothie, which is I find very sweet for my taste bud.
My husband is not feeling well that morning because of the stomach discomfort he felt the previous day. But he still tried to eat and ordered for the Bacon Fried Chicken Steaks with Milk'shroom Gravy.
For our toddler, we ordered her Apple Caramel Crumble Ala Mode because she really loves ice cream. Before taking the ice cream, she already ate some biscuits at school. So, she has a full stomach before we allowed her to eat the ice cream.
Banapple gives big serving on every plate. Price is just worth it for the size and quantity. However, the taste of their food is not delectable. The chicken for both dishes that we ordered is tasteless and tensile while the taste of rice is also unsavoured. Well, sometimes the quality of the food is sacrificed because of quantity. The smoothie and ala mode are both very sweet. Maybe the taste will work for those who have sweet tooth but not for me.
This has been my first time to visit Banapple and I really didn’t get satisfied on their food. But I plan to go back to the place again and try their foods like the pastas and salads. I just hope that Banapple gets to improve their taste because their patronizers are increasing every day.
