aVeneto Pizzeria Ristorante is one restaurant that I feel guilty of just passing by it. It is not that I do not notice it, I guess I just always choose to dismiss it! Why? Maybe either because of the unassuming and non-attention-grabbing facade or the green, white and red color scheme which give you instantly an idea that this is a place that serves Italian dishes, and you have to know that I am not really a craver of Italian cuisine!
Are you planning to pull an all-nighter in your office to finish some workload? Well, well, well, I present to you your best bet for a companion during a late-night or an all-night stay at your Bonifacio Global City office.
This is one restaurant that I am very excited to blog about! It is because for one, this resto offers Maki and other Japanese-based delights and also because of the commendable ingenuity of the founder to infuse some Filipino soul and ingredients to their otherwise foreign dishes. Yes, you read it right!
A little out of the way from the lengthy strip of Bonifacio High Street, Gyu-Kaku (horn of the bull in Japanese), a yakiniku house, sits between a known house of pancakes and a fairly new garlic haven. Established in 1996 in Japan, its first outlet outside the country was opened in the American shores, particularly in West LA.
I have long been waiting for this and now it is here! All the way from the US, Project Pie, the brainchild of James Markham, is a newly-opened establishment along the lengthy Shaw Boulevard. Carrying a sellable concept in its sleeve, Project Pie lets everyone in on a different kind of dining experience.
Rub Ribs is one of those restaurants sitting along East Capitol Drive in Kapitolyo, Pasig. Weeks prior, we actually passed by the restaurant while we were looking for a place to eat but we were turned off to see the long line outside since our tummies were already growling from starvation.
Where on earth can you find a place where you can indulge in sinful delights and still be in heaven afterwards? Slice, which is owned by Ms. Pia Cayetano, does that to you! A strike of irony, this restaurant has the capability to confine you in your diet through their wide choice of healthy and organic viands but at the same time push you into the bottomless pit of indulgence through their equally wide menu of sinful and yummy desserts.
Three Sisters has been cooking amazing foods for so long now. One of the pioneers along the now-known strip in Kapitolyo, Three Sisters has already stood the test of time. An institution in itself, the restaurant has been already there even before Kapitolyo has been recognized as a foodie haven.
Warning: This is a rich in photos post. Upon knowing that there is a museum/gallery like this in the metro, I immediately made it a point to go there the next day. Dolls sometimes give me the creeps especially if they look close to the real deal! But because of my curiosity, I swallowed my fear and went to Dolljoy. The emergence of Dolljoy is a nice story in itself.
Taking the place of Fish and Co., Smokin' Hot Bar BQ is a new addition to the roster of restaurants in the Greenbelt area. Serving Filipino dishes tweaked to appeal to both the local and foreign palate, another Bistro Group concept is here to stay.
Dishes abound Mad Mark's but as its name implies, sandwiches and frozen desserts are its specialties. Squished between two also infamous restaurants of Kapitolyo, we stormed in this little resto with a known purpose: to eat some good and creamy ice cream to complete the lunch we just had and to possibly alleviate from our minds the hot, humid weather.
This long-time love affair that I have with Japanese cuisine started during my college days. I think the influence of those jdorama was my tipping point in trying, and later on appreciating, their flavors and dishes.
A click on the internet and the proximity of us in Tomas Morato led me to this homey restaurant along Scout Lozano called LoLa Cafe + Bar. It was already night time when we navigated through the unfamiliar place and being a Taft kid that i am, it did not help that I frequent the vicinity only when I have to.
Who says size does not matter clearly has not eaten yet at Casa Verde. Tucked in a dark and narrow alley at the back of the touristy Crown Regency Hotel, Casa Verde sits unassumingly there as if its presence is irrelevant as compared to its neighbouring counterparts and attractions. But almost all people know that irrelevant it is (absolutely) not as the restaurant had already gained a huge following from locals and tourists alike.
The Lamian Restaurant is one of the three restaurants (Cena, another resto is coming its way) that you can find in Bellevue Resort in Panglao Island. Lamian offers an all-day buffet of international cuisine! What I extremely appreciated about the restaurant is that they established their point of focus; they fixed their dishes to a few items and expanded the buffet from there.
