Wasted 30minutes of me and my friend’s time searching for the coffee roaster only to find out that it is no longer operating.

This is my first visit to French bistro restaurant Josephine and I tried their weekday Set Lunch ($34) which comprised of your choice of starter, main and dessert of the day or coffee/tea.
For starter, I picked Sea Bass Ceviche. The lime marinated raw sea bass with basil, onion and yellow pepper coulis was tangy and refreshing.
I ordered Duroc Pork Belly for main and the slow confit pork belly melted in my mouth and was absolutely delicious. Love that the skin was crispy and it went very well with the garlic crushed potatoes and piperade - couldn’t get enough of this!
Dessert of the day was a slice of Apple Pie and it was not too sweet - a delightful way to end lunch.
There is also a $28 and $44 set lunch. Although the set lunch was pricey, the food was really good - enjoyed this thoroughly!
Very good BBQ, with great service from waitresses from Nghe A province, Vietnam. Noodle dishes are Xcellent too. Free Melona ice cream completes a satisfying Xperience!

As for the mains, we got the Inasal na Panga ($36). It might not seem like much but the charcoal-grilled maguro jaw was well-marinated and meaty - succulent and tender flakey flesh with a smokey crisp crackling skin. Love the slightly fatty bits and you can’t miss the sauce on the side (chef’s kiss). Prepared with annatto, calamansi, ginger and lemongrass oil, the dish also includes a refreshing house-made watermelon atsara to counter the richness.
The Buko Pie ($15) fared a little better in my opinion. Crowned with a sizeable dollop of delicate whipped coconut cream, the flaky crust pie was filled with a deliciously fragrant coconut filling and savoury piquant parmesan shavings as well as crumbles which came together very nicely. Ideal for those who go nuts for coconuts.
I am not familiar with Filipino cuisine so I can’t exactly rate the authenticity but I thoroughly enjoyed my meal at Hayop! Though portions for all the dishes are generally pretty small for the price.
Sticking to the recommended dishes, one of the small plates to get was the Manam’s Crispy Palabok ($27). Doused in a steaming, tantalising shrimp and annatto sauce, the crisp deep-fried glass noodles tower was yummy and slurpy (kinda chewy). Savoury and umami with the sweetness of the sea, I especially liked the fun textured chunks of charred baby cuttlefish, tiger prawns, tinapa flakes, garlic and chicharon.
