A Little Breather

We decided to take a break from the wedding preps and went to Sonya's Garden at Tagaytay. We arrived there at half past five in the afternoon, just in time for a quick tour of the garden and the sumptuous 'eat-all-u-can' dinner (they serve dinner from 4 til 7 pm only).

We started with the salad - which was our favorite! The greens were grown in the garden itself, the dressing was perfect for my taste, and the different toppings of cheese, corn, egg, crunchy nuts, jackfruit and sweet mangoes were just delicious!!! Jon had three servings while i had two... =) The salad alone made us full already! But there was more..!

Bread followed with several spreads - and while my diet doesn't allow bread, I couldn't help but sink my teeth into one slice and sample the spreads of kesong puti, liver pate', sundried tomatoes, and yes, even bagoong(?) - i'm not so sure of this, though.

Pasta was next which came with two sauces - tomato-based and white thick cream sauce. Toppings were plenty too - shrimps, mushroom, olives, and cheese. We had freshly-squeezed orange juice for our drinks.

I felt there was no room for more but dessert came after awhile - turon and camote coated with honey. To finally end the meal, hot water with mint tea leaves is served. Whew!!! The entire meal was DEE-LISH!!!

We took a walk after and went to look inside a cottage at the "Bed and Breakfast". The whole place was so peaceful and very relaxing...


Just bee-yoo- tiful!!!

There's another good place in Tagaytay.. Antonio's... haven't been there but reviews say it's great. Twice the price lang than that of Sonya's and you have to book two to three months before! can u imagine!!!
