Ah, breakfast. That wonderful aroma of proteins butter, and starches the sight of cereals and bread after waking up from a long, food-free night – such is the charm of breakfasting.
If you are like us, breakfast-frenzy peeps, you’d know that if there’s one place near Manila that’s ideal for this first meal of the day, it’s Tagaytay. Apart from a flurry of restos and cafes serving piping hot freshly brewed coffee and breakfast items – from silog to Continental, to waffles and bacon – you’ll also be treated to nice, balmy weather and a scenic view of Tagaytay Lake and Volcano as you finish a morning plate.
Power up in these perfect breakfast stops in Tagaytay!
