There truly are a ton of hidden gems in Los Baños and Ning's Thai is among the ones that are truly…read moreworth looking for. A bit tricky to spot, the only way to find Ning's Thai is through spotting its sign right along the Grove. Don't be alarmed if what you see next is a tiny alley, since if you do, then you're in the right place. Just walk through it and at the end of that is (thankfully) some open space and a nice cozy house waiting for you - and that house is in fact Ning's Thai! Dining in this home-turned-into-diner offers a unique experience, mainly in the sense that it actually feels like you're a guest in their home. What to try? I highly suggest their Pad Thai and Pad Kra Kao, or maybe their Bagoong rice as well. But, be sure to get a ton of water though, since besides the heat of the food, the place in itself is stuffy!

The restaurant is really clean and we were served water and hot tea upon seating. [the food] -hot and sour soup (100 peso) loved it! Rich and sour this soup came with a lot of veggies -soup dumpling and xio mai was on point! Loved that they also gave fresh calamansi as a side -almond pudding mango sago- my favorite! The pudding is a nice touch to the flavorful mango. -fresh calamansi juice is refreshing! Overall, this place was super tasty! The price was super cheap! All the food came out to 680 pesos which is about 13 US dollars. Would definitely come back if I'm ever at this mall in Tagaytay again!

The rooftop setting is stunning, featuring elegant water features and the option to dine either outdoors under the skyline or indoors while still enjoying the rooftop atmosphere. The views alone make this place worth visiting, especially in the evening when the city lights come alive. The food was excellent. We sampled a variety of Filipino dishes, all beautifully prepared and elevated with thoughtful, upscale twists while still respecting the local flavors. A special mention goes to our server, Bon, who was outstanding throughout the evening. Attentive, professional, and genuinely welcoming, he helped make an already memorable experience even better. Soft live music was on, and it added to the experience. Between the incredible atmosphere, beautiful setting, delicious food, and exceptional service, this is a place I would happily recommend to anyone looking for a special night out in Manila.

The Nest Dining in the Sky remains one of the most romantic dining destinations in the South…read more Perched atop Vivere Hotel, it offers sweeping views of the city, especially once the sun starts to set. While technically indoors, the restaurant opens its large sliding doors in the evening, creating a cool, breezy, open-air feel that makes the space both comfortable and memorable. It's easy to understand why so many couples choose this venue for date nights and proposals. The atmosphere alone is worth the visit. Since we came for an early dinner, we mostly ordered appetizers and dishes for sharing. We started with the Seafood Clam Chowder served in a bread bowl. It was decent and comforting, nothing particularly memorable, but certainly not bad. The Sisig Lumpia was unfortunately the weakest dish of the evening. Good sisig should have some crispness and texture, but this version lacked that signature crunch and came across as overly oily. It was the one dish I probably wouldn't order again. On the brighter side, the Pinchos drizzled with balsamic reduction were flavorful and enjoyable. The Beef Nachos were the star of the savory dishes, generously portioned, satisfying, and perfect for sharing. For dessert, we had the Frozen Brazo de Mercedes, which was a great way to end the meal and easily one of the highlights of our order. Service was excellent throughout. The staff were attentive, warm, and professional, making sure everything flowed smoothly without being intrusive. While the food this visit was a bit mixed, the stunning views, romantic ambiance, and impeccable service continue to make The Nest a place worth returning to. I've dined here before and remember some of their entrées being much stronger than the appetizers we ordered this time, so I'd happily come back and explore more of the menu. The food may not be flawless, but the experience certainly is. For the view, ambiance, and service alone, The Nest earns a solid 4 out of 5 star

Whenever a roadtrip down south to Tagaytay is mentioned, bulalo (beef stew) and coffee automatically comes to mind. But, a visit to Bawai's will change your Tagaytay itinerary forever. For starters, this hidden gem is the brainchild of a Filipino-Vietnamese couple, who want to share with the world their love for good vietnamese food, so they put up a restaurant and named it Bawai which means grandmother. When you plan to visit, be sure to call ahead and reserve a table because the place gets packed easily. Everything on the menu is a treat, but, my usual staple order is the fresh springrolls (Goi Cuon) as well as the Vietnamese hot coffee (Ca phe Sua Nong) and their tamarind prawn shrimps.

The first pick of everyone for a delectable taste option. It was not a disappointment. I may have tried different Asian cuisines at different times but this place has by far serves cuisines that you could try at one visit. There were no regrets on this visit. The following stands out and satisfied my taste pallettes: Vietnamese spring roll Special crispy tawalis Balinese satay prawn Crispy pork belly in hoisin sauce Beef tenderloin roll ....that all the above perfectly matched with Bagoong fried rice. Each has unique delectable flavor, fitting to the restaurant's slogan. Mixed and match Asian fusion cuisne has made the meet up more entertaining and pleasurable. The place is classy, the chandeliers and the table arrangement level up the place into a fine dining restaurant. A good and perfect place for celebration. Don't be intimated, the menu price is very affordable. They have wide selection of beverages too. I had a good dining experience aside I was with good company. We were there at the right moment, they just open up. No trouble with service, with seating and the food presentation. Oh well, the advantage of being early birds paid off. A well recomemnded place.

Rosa is becoming a foodie destination! Good but not that great. Vietnamese food is characterized by freshness and simplicity- a delicious excuse to eat your veggies! Bawai's is a healthier option when eating out. Enjoyed their salads and fresh rolls more than the mains. The coconut sprout salad aka Bawai's Salad won me over. Pho Bo was too oily and lacking that herbal kick of cilantro. They don't serve it with fresh basil nor bean sprouts. Salmon and chicken are forgettable. Not a fan of pork but was told by my tablemates it was amazingly tender. A bit on the pricey side for what you're getting but service is spot on. Food comes out fairly fast even about 3/4 of their tables were occupied. Weird restroom door made of frosted glass. I wouldn't use the loo there if I were you.

I really do not eat here often enough. I hate that Kanzhu branches are mostly located at places…read morethat aren't easily accessible via commute, but I guess that makes it more exciting when I actually dine there. I have a soft spot for Taiwanese hand-pulled noodles, and Kanzhu is one of those places that does them so well. The dry noodles, especially the beef brisket dry noodles, may not look like much - it's a bowl of noodles with a few cubes of beef and some veggies on top - but you'd be surprised at how delicious and filling they are. The density of the noodles fills you up so fast, and they aren't overly cloying or 'umay'-inducing when it comes to flavor. The dumplings also taste like they are made fresh on the spot, because the wrapper is so thick; it definitely doesn't taste like pre-packaged dumpling wrappers were used, and this is a plus. I also love how Kanzhu's price points aren't excessive, because I believe that there should be more places that give you ACTUAL bang for your buck. Expect to shell out 250 pesos per head, and be super, SUPER full after. Even their fried rice, specifically the Olive Fried Rice, is really, REALLY good.

Rate is at Php545/head and the last call for lunch buffet is at 2:30pm. Tried the Satay and Sinigang soup base. On the onset, I can say that there is a major difference in taste. It is not as flavorful as it used to be. There is a varied option of vegetables, meat, and seafood for grill or hotpot. There is a counter for asian food and a few racks of sushi. Selection for dessert includes Ice Cream, cake slices, fruits, buco pandan, and you can make your own halo-halo.
