my favorite restaurant in tagaytay and a true culinary haven. each visit never fails to give me an excellent and remarkable experience... as i never live on bread alone.
i can just have a house salad, an appetizer or cheese, a glass of wine, and i'll be perfectly happy. but the freshness of their salads has always been inviting. fresh greens (& purple), toped with walnuts, currants and cranberries, and drizzled with raspberry vinigrette and oil.
our usual set is basically the same except for the main entrée & pasta. and of course with the soup of the day... i love suprises (good suprises). the paté de foiè gras on poached pear and crostini is my favorite appetizer but oysters can be great as well, depends on the season, my mood, and if it's dinner or lunch.
their steaks are defenitely good, but their lamb ribs is great! you can never go wrong with this. just ask for mint jelly on the side and its already perfect. their desserts would defenitely complete your day! i prefer their house desserts but when you're already full, sorbet would be fine.
the clean fresh air alone separates them from the rest. you know how it is in manila. truly refreshing, & relaxing, ambiance that always make me feel at home.
