The smaller tables along the railing have a good view of the Makati skyline, but I suspect the view might be more impressive at sunset or when it’s light out. At 10PM they switch off the lights at Ayala Triangle, so it’s pitch dark… Heh.
My table (at the corner, nearer to where the bar/entrance is), was also next to the smoking corner, which I was not a fan of.
Was an alright experience as something convenient having just touched down from the airport, but I probably won’t return.
Also worth noting - minimum spend of 500 PHP to be able to swipe a credit card. Yes, I left after my one drink.

I got a Hot Mama (400 PHP+), the only specialty cocktail on the cocktail menu:
🔸 Grey Goose vodka
🔸 Lemon juice
🔸 Red chilli
🔸 Chilli finger garnish
I was in the mood for something citrusy & spicy, & this did the job. It was also the most interesting option on the menu.
Classic cocktails are available too, though - if you’re looking for comfort.

Penthouse is more club-like than lounge-like, if I gotta be honest. Seems more appropriate as a venue for group gatherings.. Although with how loud the music was blaring, I was kinda glad to be alone so I didn’t have to shout to talk to anyone (except the waitstaff).
The vibes & atmosphere was something I didn’t expect for a “lounge”, & having looked at the pictures beforehand.. IMHO it’s more party than classy.
The picture might not match up to what I'm describing, but trust me. I wish I could upload videos here to illustrate 😂

With my 𝑭𝒍𝒐𝒑𝒑𝒚 𝑬𝒂𝒓𝒔 (450+ PHP) - gin basil, citrus, Fleur de Sauvage, Angostura bitters, homemade syrup - in hand, I happily hibernated in a corner. The space is dark, comfortable, cosy. & I occasionally had lovely chats with Hope & Paolo.
This was a delightful, refreshing way way to start my evening... There were several other cocktails I wanted to try but didn't get to, so a return visit is certainly in order. 🫰🏻
I noticed they had a Kaya Toast cocktail on the menu, & puffed up my chest as a proud Singaporean (lol).
Daryll, the bartender who warmly welcomed me to sit at the bar, then shared with me that Run Rabbit Run has a partnership with Bitters & Love in Singapore, which totally made sense... That's the only association I have with kaya toast cocktails - fond memories from yonks ago.
Halo halo is a traditional Filipino dessert that mixes shaved ice with ube (sweet potato) ice cream and a variety of toppings such as soursop, flan, jackfruit, cornflakes, jello etc.
They have a quite a few franchisees in Cebu city itself.
Ranked the best halo halo by my cebuano friend and I gotta admit I think so too!! Mind-blown by this cool dessert on a hot day! 🤯

One of many success from The Abaca Group, comes The Abaca Baking Company •
Making a morning visit to the coffeehouse so worth it. As soon as you walk in, you’d be overwhelmed by the smell of fresh artisan crafted breads and classic American breakfast with an iced coffee to follow •

Please excuse the old phone’s quality 😅 •

These are really good I ordered twice within 1 week. The buns are soft and the sauce is really tasty which compliments the pork and crispy chicken.
Usually coated with freshly grated coconut and sprinkled with sugar with toasted sesame seeds.
Manam's version is filled with pastillas (milk with sugar, cooked till very thick and sheet) and nuts then topped with fresh and toasted coconut. *

Got this gem at only PhP 520. Loved how the broth seeps thoroughly into the meat. Best paired with lots and lots of rice 😁 totally my fave from Locavore.
