Pamana Restaurant: Family Recipes
by ayn_g
The feel of Pamana Restaurant is like coming home to your ancestral home. The restaurant is filled with trinkets and stuff from the past, old film reels, family pictures, etc. And the menu is filled with family recipes or recipes from friends of the restaurant owner's family. The place is not that big that it can only accommodate a number of customers at a time; so, it's best to make reservations especially during lunch time. The service, though, is very prompt and courteous. We only waited for a short time for us to be seated and have our lunch. Their food is also surprisingly least expensive than we thought it was.
All that we ordered were superb, especially their Kare-Kare and Misua (or Birthday Noodles)
Tootsie's: Homecooked food
by ayn_g
The ambience and food remind me of family gatherings with your favorite dishes on the table. They serve Ilonggo dishes such as Kansi and the prices are not as steep as other restaurants in Tagaytay City. It is easy to spot too as it is located along Aguinaldo Highway.
Kansi, Kare-Kare, and their Ube palitaw are reasons why I would keep on coming back to Tootsie's
Bulalo Point Tagaytay City: Good food is not always enough
by muy003
Food is almost always good in the company of your loved ones, especially if it's a big family that almost rarely gets together. This is not my first time dining on the place. I actually insisted on dining there for this occasion so my dad could try the Bulalo we've been raving about.There were 14 of us. The first thing I asked was if we could occupy two kubo (nipa huts) instead of the long table. To add to the feel of hometown dining. The first waitress/attendant said "Pwede naman po, mam (It may be, ma'm)". So we were choosing two empty kubos. Upon getting there another female attendant came and asked whether we were staying at the kubo, I said yes, "Pwede namang dalawang kubo di ba, katorse kasi kami (We can occupy two kubos, right? There's 14 of us." Then attendant #2 said, "Depende po sa order nyo (It depends on your order)". Insulted much? Yeah! If there was only me, and I decided...
Leslie's Restaurant: Good Food + Great View
by cyndymc
Leslie's Restaurant is one of the popular restaurants offering a great view of Taal Lake & Volcano aside from good local food. It specializes in local cuisine and seafood dishes. It is also known for Tagaytay "Bulalo", a soup dish specialty in Tagaytay. Leslie's offers free Bulalo soup to diners who are not so keen at eating the meat. They not only give free Bulalo soup, they also add some vegetables to the soup.Leslie's Restaurant has native-inspired motif in its interior decoration and furnishings. They have a big dining hall, plus native cottages near the ridge. Some native cottages are constructed on the cliff for added dining adventure. If you use these "hanging cottages" , you'll have to pay extra for the cottage (P600 if I remember right). I must admit we bring guest there because of the ambience and great view.There are serenaders who sing from table to table. Foreigners usually...

Jollibee: First Meal in Philippines
by Aidy_p
Like a baby learning how to walk, eating at Jollibee was truly an experience. I know that you can find the restaurant at every corner, but this was our very first meal in Philippines. So the first bite was totally sacred.We were not sure how to order the food but one thing's for sure. The food is definitely value-for-money. A spaghetti with drinks for about S$1.50! The restaurant, as of most fast food restaurants, was pretty clean and nicely decorated with proper lighting, tables and chairs.
As the host had prepared lunch for us, the stop-over at Jollibee was more to fill our stomachs till enough to get us to the next destination.I ordered a one piece chicken meal with a rice cake and drink all for the price of p88 (S$2.50). This was the first time that we had rice cake with a piece of chicken and the rice was really piping hot. So nice that I can really eat it on its own.

Josephine's Restaurant: The best breakfast buffet in Tagaytay
by thescene
Josephine's Resturant located along the ridge of the Taal Volcano is well known for their breakfast buffet. Here you get a value for money selection of breakfast food including favorites like ham, bacon and hotdogs. There is also a omelette bar where you can ask the cook to make one up to your specifications. If you prefer a more healthy breakfast you can try eating some of their fruits or their cereal bar. If it's possible try getting a table as close to the windows where you can see a breathtaking view of the Taal Volcano.

Mang Inasal Tagaytay: BBQ With Unlimited Rice & Sinigang Soup
by cyndymc
We came from Royale Tagaytay Country Club, and were on our way to Army Navy where we planned to eat its famous burritos, but when traffic slowed down at Crossing Mendez, we noticed the crowd at the newly opened Mang Inasal Restaurant adjacent to SM Savemore. (There are 2 Mang Inasal restaurants in Tagaytay City. The first one that opened is at the Tagaytay-Silang Junction where Max's Fried Chicken Restaurant used to be.) Hubby suddenly had a craving for BBQ meal with hot white rice. My daughter also suddenly craved for Mang Inasal's really sour "sinigang" soup...so, we aborted the plan to eat burritos.What is so special about Mang Inasal BBQ? Why did we suddenly crave for it? Mang Inasal's special marinate, a concoction of local spices and herbs make their pork and chicken really tasty. Skewered in bamboo sticks, then charcoal-grilled, the "inasal" (Visayan term for grilled food) has a...

Army Navy: Yummy Jumbo Burgers & Burritos!
by cyndymc
I was delighted to see an Army Navy Branch in Tagaytay. I suddenly remembered my grandson who loves Army Navy's triple deck burger, but since he was not with us when we went to Tagaytay recently, we didn't eat there. Army Navy specializes in American - Mexican food combos, oversized burgers (P135-235), burritos (P135-155), quesadillas (P85-135), and soft-shelled tacos (P125-145). The place is unassuming, with an army barracks motif. The kitchen can be seen behind the order counter which is in a structure resembling an army bunker. The diners eat al fresco at the military-style wooden benches and tables. There are also chairs with umbrella tables. Just a few steps down the garden, Taal Lake & Volcano can be seen.Army Navy opens from 10:00 am - 11:00 pm on Sundays, Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. On Fridays and Saturdays, it opens from 10:00 am to past midnight, till 12:30...

Yellow Cab: Craving For New York Pizza?
by cyndymc
We usually go to Yellow Cab wherever and whenever we have a craving for New York-style pizzas. Yellow Cab Tagaytay Branch is therfore a welcome treat for us.The Tagaytay Branch is housed in a 2-level building. The ground floor has a backdoor that leads to the Army Navy tables. Past these tables and chairs is a garden with a view of Taal Lake & Volcano. The fresh air and view is a welcome respite from the tiring road trip, but you can have good souvenir pictures with the Taal Lake & Volcano as background, UNLESS you go down the slopes of the garde, (quite risky, especially during rainy season!). There is a better view of the Taal Lake & Volcano from the terrace of the 2nd level. You can even view it while dining if you stay near the glass walls. While eating, I couldn't help but notice at least 4 butterflies on the glass walls and door; perhaps they came in with the guests who went to the...

Carlos Pizza: "Pizza con Taal Volcano"
by cyndymc
Carlos Pizza not only boasts of a wide variety of pastas & pizzas, it also prides itself with a magnificent view of Taal Lake & Volcano. The restaurant is airconditioned, but most diners prefer the tables on the porch at the back, with a wide garden and panoramic view of Taal Lake & Volcano. Having tried many restaurants along the ridge, I personally think Carlos Pizza offers a better view of the lake and volcano. Those who wish to have souvenir pictures with Taal Lake & Volcano as background won't be disappointed.Service is Fast; food is superb; view is fantastic!
Fish & Chips and Abruzzi Pizza (w/ ham, pepperoni, bacon & Italian Sausage) are our favorites.Their fruit shakes (especially watermelon) are very delicious!
