Check out these dining spots, and taste good food from sunrise till dusk:
La Creperie
Start your day with a breakfast that feels like a warm embrace on a cold morning. Italian-inspired restaurant La Creperie offers a variety of meals to fuel your energy. You can munch on authentic French savory crepes like Savoyarde with Hungarian sausage and Italienne with ham and Mozzarella cheese. For that daily protein intake, savor Eggs Royale with perfectly done poached eggs and English muffins coated in hollandaise sauce. La Creperie also has twelve “hearty meals” including Eggplant Moussaka you’ll surely love. GF.
Mary Grace Cafe
There is no better way to appreciate the refreshing scenery than with a cup of coffee in hand. Mary Grace Cafe is the go-to place for comforting beverages with classic caffeine fixes like Espresso, Cappuccino, and Americano. For a twist, try their Peppermint Iced Mocha, blending their signature hot chocolate with crushed peppermint candy.Their Chocnut and Spicy Mexicana hot chocolates will also give you a memorable escape. If you suddenly crave for a quick snack, the classic Ensaymada with premium Edam cheese from Holland will surely satisfy your taste buds. GF & LGF.
Mercédes
Food brings people together. Lunch, particularly, is a good time to catch up with your family; of course, over delicious appetizers and delightful platters. Mercedes boasts a range of dishes guests can savor. For your appetizer, grab a Samosa, an Indian pastry filled with potatoes and peas. Next, warm your soul with a hearty and tangy soup such as Sinigang na Hipon, a Filipino dish with fresh shrimp simmered in a savory broth. For the main meal, pick from a list of South East Asian Cuisine including Nasi Goreng, an Indonesian dish combining grilled shrimp, chicken and pork skewers, bagoong rice, and peanut sauce into one delectable plate. GF and LGF.
T-bone King Premium Steakhouse
Dinners are meant to be slow and intimate — best enjoyed with steak. T-bone King Premium Steakhouse offers premium beef grilled with perfection. To cap off your day, savor their best-seller Australian Porterhouse, plated with a fresh salad and rich gravy. Cleanse your palate with a banana split or a brownie for a sweet finale. GF.
Aozora Japanese Resto
If you’re still up for steak but wanted it to be a little different, then Aozora is a perfect option. This restaurant delivers a Japanese twist with a selection of Wagyu and specialty beef dishes. Relish their signature Wagyu steak served with stir-fried vegetables, which you can pair with the Aozora Fried Rice filled with chopped onions, carrots, leeks, Baguio beans, and fresh kani. If you realized steak is a bit overboard, the bulalo-inspired Aozora Ramen offers a lighter, yet equally delicious meal. GF.
