    November 11, 2019 / 0 Comments

    Cool climate, a unique and breathtaking view of a lake with a volcano at the middle of it, an array of restaurants with both local and intercontinental taste, coffee shops with great vibes and strong aroma coming to life on weekends – this is what Tagaytay city is all about.

Sure there’s a lot of restaurants out there and in the list with the view but crowded by famished sojourners. If a local taste…

  • Aozora Japanese Restaurant: A Must Try Japanese Restaurant in Tagaytay City

    September 25, 2019 / 0 Comments

    After a long day of exploring the nearby cities at the south, we found ourselves running through the rain in a cold evening towards a Japanese restaurant in Tagaytay City to satisfy our cravings. Aozora Japanese Cafe + Bistro got us more than satisfied. To go in details, here’s an honest review of Aozora Japanese Restaurant. The Place It was pretty warm and it made us mindless of the rain outside. The moment we got in, that’s when I noticed how minimal their interior is. It has a rustic atmosphere. There are no extravagant Oriental wallpapers, murals nor the usual Japanese restaurant store banners but a few Japanese warrior dolls…

  • Organico Gourmet: An All-Natural Dining Experience

    July 23, 2018 / 0 Comments

    In this convenience-driven world, people turn into everything that is instant – most especially in food; (1) because it’s cheap, (2) because it’s served literally in an instant. Despite the awareness of the destruction it may bring to one’s temple, people seemed not to bother. Simply being mindless and careless about the food intake has alarming effects such as obesity and in worst cases, illness and diseases leading to death. Do you mind about what you eat? Reflect. Amidst the never ending establishment of convenience stores and fast foods in this fast-paced world, there still exist restaurants offering all-natural, farm-to-table dishes which are cooked to perfection making it worth the…
