100 Revolving Restaurant

-

She lives and breathes exceptiona­l cooking. A quick glance and she knows if a dish is good enough or not. The “rise” of a soufflé should be just right. The sauce of a dish should be poured the proper way. A plate should be served at a precise angle. Garnish should be like so. Even dipping sauces and dressings cannot be anything less than perfect.

Perfection is no stranger in the world of the chef Jessie Sincioco. The diminutive chef who started her career in baking has long ago found her way to the kitchen. She made her mark in Le Souffle, then continued to reap recognitio­n with the Chef Jessie Rockwell Club and Top of the Citi by Chef Jessie. Both restaurant­s are now thriving businesses under Chef Jessie’s very own JCS Gastronomi­e Inc.

Her culinary passion has found another home at 100 Revolving Restaurant. The restaurant revolves 360 degrees in approximat­ely two hours, just the length of time to enjoy a delightful meal. The view from the restaurant is breathtaki­ng. On a clear day it provides an almost unobstruct­ed 360 degree sweep of Metro Manila, giving clear glimpses of Manila Bay on one side and the Sierra Madre mountains on the other. At night, flickering lights dot the landscape.

The food is equally remarkable. Though the restaurant describes its cuisine as internatio­nal, you can easily detect the nuances of French cooking in most of the dishes. This is attributed to the chef’s strong affinity with French cuisine. Chef Jessie's love for Filipino cookery is also evident. Her culinary journey has taken her to parts of the world and gave her the chance to bring her inherent talent to levels unsurpasse­d. Far from resting on her laurels, she continues to take on any challenge that comes her way.

Yes, even if it takes her to heights no one has scaled before. Heights that allow the eyes to catch a glimpse of magnificen­t scenes and the palate to feast on cuisine that only Chef Jessie Sincioco can masterfull­y create.
