I once saw this restaurant some time in ‘06 and I asked myself, ‘who would dine here?’ Apparently, a lot of people dine at Emer’s Food Center inside the Makati Cinema Square. According to the cashier, they have been in business for 26 years and the customers just keep coming back. I heard about this place from one of the managers at our office who raved about the place and said that the Pata Tim (soy-braised pork leg) was their specialty.
The final leg of the Tagaytay food tour with Verdana Homes and Anton Diaz was capped by a sumptuous dinner at Paseo de Sta. Rosa’s The Kanin Club in Laguna. This was first time to dine at this restaurant and after doing a quick search on the Internet, I realized that this is very popular among amateur and professional foodies.
Contrary to popular belief, the name Häagen Dazs is not a European brand. The owners used a play of words to make it sound foreign. Actually, Häagen Dazs is an American brand that is now owned by Nestlè. My personal favorite is Green Tea flavor, which is only available in select Asian markets including the Philippines.
Just to show how friendly T house staff are. This was taken from the see-through kitchen window of another great Tagaytay foodie haven, the T house. It is also another bed and breakfast place with a wonderful restaurant and equally wonderful spa. With 15 tastefully decorated room, guests will surely be treated to a relaxing and memorable stay.
This was taken as we entered the T house compound.
The general manager of T house treated us bloggers like royalty. There were welcome drinks, snacks and a tour of the facilities. For inquiries (and directions) you may book online (www.thousetagaytay.com) or call them at +63922-884673 (or 0922-8THOUSE). The service, food and amenities will ease your tensions.
And the fun continues. What’s lunch without dessert? A few meters away from Bawai’s Vietnamese Kusina is Chateau Hestia. Austrian national Johannes Zehethofer owns this dainty bed and breakfast place, deep within the recesses of Lagusan Drive, Tagaytay City. Seen here are bloggers eagerly anticipating dessert.
