Romantic Places/Restaurants

True. Watching the sunset or stargazing at the cozy Fundacion Pacita terraces overlooking the vast Pacific Ocean and idyllic lush green hills. Probably the most serene and cinematic scenery I’ve seen thus far. And I have travelled far and wide.

Steak. Because love requires red, red meat. I’m sure these guys have vegetarian options but you’re going to need protein to well, uhmm… protein.

  • Elbert’s Steakhouse, Makati
  • Antonio’s. Tagaytay
  • La Cabrera, 6750
  • Wolfgang’s Steakhouse, Podium
  • 22 Prime, Discovery Ortigas

French. Is there anything that says l’amour than French food? I don’t think so. Off the top of my head:

  • L’Aubergine, BGC
  • Mamou, BGC
  • Mireio, Raffles Makati
  • Lemuria, Horseshoe Village
  • La Vie Parisienne, Cebu City

Japanese. Because it’s not just a litmus test for your partner’s sophistication, it’s also damned good food. Most of these places are in Little Tokyo, I know, but it’s called that for a reason.

  • Seryna, Little Tokyo
  • Century Tsukiji, Century Park
  • Sekitori, Little Tokyo
  • Yushuken, Alabang
  • Unakichi, Makati Cinema Square

Filipino. Because there are such places where you can have a romantic Filipino meal.

  • Bale Dutung, Pampanga
  • Locavore, Pasig
  • XO 46 Heritage Bistro, Valero
  • Manam, BGC
  • Ilonggo Food Company, BGC

Spanish. I find it tags a deeper chord.

  • Terry’s Selection, Makati.
  • Barcino, BGC
  • Rambla, Rockwell
  • Bar Pintxos, BGC
  • Ilustrado, Intramuros

Contemporary. Because we’re a monoculture now, and good food crosses boundaries. Some of these places you may need to cross a continent (or go to BF, which is the same thing).

  • Wildflour/Farmacy*, BGC
  • Epilogue, S. Maison
  • La Chinesca, BF
  • Le Grand Gourmet, BF
  • Bamba Bistro, BF
