TKG's 10 Restaurant Choices To Celebrate Father's Day

Its almost Father's Day and if you still haven't made a reservation on where to treat your Dad for lunch or dinner, read my list of 10 restaurant recommendations.

Celebrate Thanksgiving At Chef Jessie Restaurants

Good food is synonymous with Thanksgiving. This annual event that began in the North Americas is a national holiday that is usually celebrated with a turkey. It commemorates the Harvest Festival celebrated by the Pilgrims in 1621 and is held every 4th Thursday of November.

It is traditional Thanksgiving at its best at Chef Jessie Restaurants at  Rockwell Center, Makati, Citibank Tower, Makati and Eastwood, Quezon City.

Degustation Dinner With The Culinary Historians Of The Philippines

I've attended a lot of food tasting, degustation, and other food related events but having a degustation dinner with the Culinary Historians of the Philippines (CHOP) is a different and surreal experience. These are the group of real "foodies." Those who take time to explore new places (including provinces) and compare the dishes from this place with that place.

I remember a nice conversation I had with my tablemates about halo-halo. According to one CHOP member, there's this small store in Nasugbu, Batangas that's famous for its halo-halo. Alas, it only opens at 3pm daily and closes until all the ingredients run out. Deets about CHOP and halo-halo soon.

The venue for the Degustation Dinner was at 100 Revolving Restaurant.

Saturday Buffet At 100 Revolving Restaurant

After the successful run of the Saturday Lunch Buffet of 100 Revolving Restaurant early this year, the management has decided to continue offering the Saturday Lunch Buffet regularly and with a different theme every week.

My First Buffet Lunch In 2014

Who would've thought that after the month-long pigging-out last December that I'd still have space for another one just a few days after New Year's Day? But I have a very good excuse- my best buddy and foodie-mate from Cebu is here so there's reason for another celebration. Also, she was the one who told me about the Saturday lunch promo of 100 Revolving Restaurant for Citibank card holders which began last month. The restaurant is located along C5 in Eastwood.

Thumbs up because I've already tried their Saturday Buffet Lunch at 100 Revolving during its first run last December and I love, love, love the buffet spread there especially the cochinillo. I also love the turkey and the roast beef. I love the salad greens, the pasta, the seafood. And the love the desserts. Okay, I love everything there. Take note: the buffet spread is not as extensive as the buffet spreads in most hotels and restaurant but the difference here is that you want to eat everything here because they're just so delicious. I can't even decide clearly which is my favorite dish or dessert. Please read my first visit to 100 Revolving Restaurant here.

NEW RESTO ALERT: 100 Revolving Restaurant

This restaurant is barely six months old but knowing that Chef Jessie Sincioco of the famed Le Souffle, Top of The Citi, and The Rockwell Club is at the helm, then there's no denying of having a superb dining experience here. And of course, not to be missed is the 360 degree revolving view of the City which makes a complete circle in approximately 90 minutes. I bet even the kids will love the awesome view of the city. Aside from the city view, you can also have a full circle view of the different areas of the restaurant from the main entrance, bar, kitchen and dining area. To date, this is the only revolving restaurant in the country although there used to be a revolving restaurant in Quiapo, Manila decades ago. If you happen to know SM Clearance Outlet, simply look up and you'll see where the revolving restaurant used to be. I'm not really sure if its moving like the 100 Revolving Restaurant of Chef Jessie but I'm pretty sure that it had a splendid 360 degree view of the city when tall buildings were just a handful.

At night, we were told by Chef Jessie that the restaurant has been a popular place for romantic proposals and several private functions.
