SOME GOOD OL’ RESTAURANTS IN A BUCOLIC RIDGE
Tagaytay
City is known as the 2nd Summer Capital of the Philippines. Over the
years, Tagaytay City has been the go-to place for a quick getaway from the
concrete jungle. Being an hour and a half away from the metropolis, Tagaytay
City has been a haven for anyone who needs a rejuvenating day or weekend.
Over the
years, Tagaytay City’s landmark and pride is the stunning view of Taal Lake and
Volcano. Being in a bucolic ridge, the air is crisp and chilly. With a
panoramic sight and a relaxing environment, one thing made this vacation spot a
hit – good food!
Today,
numerous restaurants and dining-by-reservation have sprouted in Tagaytay City
but there are some good ol’ Tagaytay
City Dining Favorites that should not be missed.
BAG OF BEANS
Mornings
are always fabulous when you visit Tagaytay City. Fresh clean crisp air
envelops you early in the morning and the scent of freshly baked breads from Bag of Beans. If that is not enough,
throw in some delicious breakfast platters to boot! More on Bag of Beans here.
RESTAURANT VERBENA
Discovery
Country Suites offers gourmet dining at Restaurant Verbena. Meticulously prepared from appetizers, main dishes and decadent
desserts, Restaurant Verbena is a must-visit for any epicurean. More on Restaurant Verbena here.
HAWAIIAN BBQ
Do you
love baby back ribs? Have you been craving for melts-in-the-mouth baby back
ribs for so long and end up disappointed in every restaurant you visit? Crave
no more! Hawaiian BBQ serves an
array of tender meat dishes and one of the best tasting baby back ribs I have
devoured! More on Hawaiian BBQ here.
PAMANA
Whenever I
travel, it warms my heart to see century-old architectures. For food,
traditional home cooked dishes are beyond comfort. When you visit PAMANA, heritage dining of time-honored dishes and some family memorabilia abound. More on PAMANA here.
LOUMAR’S PIES TARTS AND COFFEE SHOP
Take home
treats known as pasalubong is the
best part when traveling. Pasalubong are any sweets or delicacies purchased for
friends and families to enjoy when you arrive home. It is a simple token that
you (the traveler) remember them even when you are away. Loumar’s Pies Tarts and Coffee Shop offers a wide range of sweets,
delicacies, freshly baked pies and tarts. More on Loumar’s Pies Tarts and Coffee Shop here.
There are
still numerous dining favorites in Tagaytay City that I have truly enjoyed over
the years - Rowena’s Cafe, Taj of Tagaytay, Antonio’s Restaurant, Sonja’s
Garden and some recent players– Nanay
Cirilas’ Kapeng Barako, Milagros
Private Kitchen and Balinsasayaw
all which I have yet to share here in this Philippine food blog.
Still
looking for other dining spots? Before going or after enjoying Tagaytay City
breeze, you can swing by at two Cavite restaurants (Tagaytay City is part of
Cavite Province) - Chateau Hestia
and Malen’s. Details here and here.
