We usually see Spanish cuisine as traditional and intimidating, but Cafe Enye aims to provide a contemporary way of serving these comforting flavors while being affordable and un-intimidating. What you get here is a casual restaurant that serves top quality food at affordable prices.

Callos Buns: Php135/3pcs, also available for bulk takeout orders

For starters, you should definitely try out their Callos Buns,ย a reinvented version of the Chinese sweet bun. Think of it as if a Chinese siopao/sweet bun and cheese bread had a baby; this would be that perfect little angel. It is sweet and savory and once you have one, you can’t stop. People order this one by the droves, and the only reason Iย can think of is that it’s THAT good.

Pollo Croquettas : Php175

Another awesome appetizer is their Pollo Croquettas, which is seriously addicting. This is not just mashed potatoes, though, as Cafe Enye blends crispy marinated chicken bรฉchamel into a nice paste and the salsa verde dip adds the right amount of spice to heighten the flavor.

Lechon Carbonara : Php250

For some comfort food, you can NEVER GO WRONG with their Lechon Carbonara,ย classic pasta carbonara served warm with their homemade chicharon with the yolk sitting on top. Once you mix everything in, you get a nice creamy balance of flavors in the sauce – much like real traditional carbonara.

Moroccan-Style Curry Paella : Php385

Of course it wouldn’t be a Spanish-influenced restaurant without some paella – and Cafe Enye’s definitely did not disappoint. Their Morrocan-Style Curry Paella perfectly explains what Cafe Enye is about. They use the Spanish disciplines of cooking, but the ingredients and spices are Morrocan and what you get is this nice blend of flavors that are comforting to the soul and tummy.
