The House of Lasagna is an Italian-inspired restaurant which first opened on J.Abad Santos Street, Little Baguio, San Juan City on February 5, 2009. Geeky Pinas had a chance to meet the owner of the House of Lasagna (HoL), Chef Erick Congmon- a young passionate chef who hails from the famous Congmon clan of Cebu (owner of the ubiquitous Sunburst Fried Chicken restaurant chain in VisMin). He shared to us a little background and history of his restaurant which I will also share in the latter part of the article.

House of Lasagna's Best Seller- Beef Lasagna. 
He recommended to us the HoL's best-seller - the Beef Lasagna! (See photo above). In 2012 and 2013, the Beef Lasagna was rated #1 in the "Top Ten list of Meat Lasagnas" by Spot.ph. So, this is definitely a must-try dish!

I was surprised that a single order of lasagna is already good for 2 people. As you would notice, the serving is big and the sauce is overflowing - that makes it really more attractive! The taste is creamy and balanced - neither too salty nor too sweet, unlike the flavorful Filipino dishes that most Pinoys are used to. According to Chef Erick, he maintains a well-balanced taste to suit the different taste preferences of customers. It's up to the customer if they want to adjust it through the condiments available.

Carbonara Lasagna!
They have a wide variety of Lasagna dishes that will surely satisfy your lasagna cravings. Just choose the lasagna of your choice and enjoy!  We have also tried HoL's Carbonara Lasagna. It's very delicious! I'll definitely order this next time when I go back to this restaurant.

Unlimited Toasted Bread
The perfect match for Lasagna - toasted bread. What makes it more perfect is, it's UNLIMITED when you order a lasagna! :))

Chef Erick Congmon- owner of House of Lasagna
Hello there Chef! :)

Well, a little background about HoL..He named it House of Lasagna because his business started at his home. Back then, he also offered pastries, cakes and desserts, apart from his main course, the lasagna. It was in a pre-ordered basis- you order then pick-up. You can have it delivered, as well.


Second, the restaurant is a place for families. As you can see on the exterior and interior of the restaurant, it's designed like a house. "It feels like home when you eat here!"


Lastly, the chef treats his customers as his family!
