    heh heh.

    who introduced sosing's to me?
    a scion of a prominent, wealthy family...
    Haven't been there in ages. I miss the place even though finding a parking space there at lunchtime is like winning the lottery.

    Is it worth it to go to Tagaytay just to see the view at Twin lakes? BTW, my boss does not like Filipino food and he did not like San Miguel beer

    What's a good restaurant to dine in sa Tagaytay (except Breakfast at Antonio's, Antonio's, Bag of beans and Sonja's Garden)

    I also want to buy fresh mango for our VP. He said he wants to go shopping tomorrow, boring naman if we will just go around Greenbelt, Powerplant and McKinley Hill.

    shopping for filipiniana? try shoemart filipiniana. then, for the more western-type capitalist goods, go to SM dept store.
    fresh mango/fruit? try san andres fruit market.
    dine at SM tagaytay vista lodge.

    No. Gonna buy a handbag for his wife. I told him that bags are cheaper in Europe (like Longchamp) and the last time I went to Europe, so many people asked me to buy for them. He said, next time he will buy me one. WOW! Still very generous considering I am just the staff of his staff (my German boss)

    Yesterday we went to Uptown and High Street. I don't know where we will go tomorrow hehehe

    Not sure if US brands are cheaper here. I have a discount card in the other brand his wife likes so I have to accompany him talaga

    Can anyone suggest a good place to take an executive from India? He wants buffet daw It would be nice to take him out for drinks or any night spot. Indian is late 30s (same age range as the other local/PH management). I'm not updated anymore on places to go since I practically jailed myself at home for 2 yrs during the pandemic.

    Makati or BGC only so it's near the office since traffic is terrible now.

    buffet will be hard since we Pinoys are very noisy
    and half the table will be standing up regularly to go back to the buffet area.

    I would recommend... (although I'm not sure if they serve alcohol)

    Either Kashmir or Indus - BGC (Indian Food)
    Manam BGC - Fil Food

    Spirals also has good Indian food (plus its a buffet)

    Then there's HK Master Cook (Dampa)

    Do not bring an Indian guy to a Japanese resto

    alas, nasa maynila ito.

    new coast hotel, formerly new world manila bay hotel, formerly hyatt regency hotel.
    along pedro gil st in manila.
    i have always liked their buffets.
    bright, clean and un-crowded, varied cuisine.
    alas, no buffet on sundays.

    then there's the un-dying manila hotel.
    palaging siksikan.
