Buon Giorno in Tagaytay City

I am a very big fan of pizzas and pastas and when you hear those two wonderful words, one will say, truly Italian! Yes indeed! I love Italian. I am fascinated with their way of cooking and the taste of the wonderful herbs that plays in your mouth when you bite a pizza or twirled some pasta on your fork.

Located in Tagaytay City in Cliffhouse is a wonderful Italian restaurant: "Buon Giorno" The feel inside the restaurant is very Italian. The colors that they played with in creating such atmosphere is exquisite. Tagaytay is known to have a cool climate compared to Manila, thus sitting outside, open air, is always an option plus you get a good view of famous Taal Volcano and the lake that surrounds it.

We ordered the cream of pumpkin soup which is by the way one of the most delicious pumpkin soup I've ever tasted. The house bread is also very fragrant and delicious spiced with Tarragon leaves as you dip it on the olive oil with vinaigrette and parmessan cheese, simply amazing! As for the main course, we ordered the Seafood Pizza in Basil. The aroma of the basil isn't overpowering the seafood flavor in the pizza, there is harmony in the ingredients which makes this pizza remarkable. The crust is crunchy and fresh as you can smell the dough and the flour even after it was cooked. The highlight of the dinner was its Shrimp and Funghi Ravioli in Tomato Sauce. The ravoili is still chewy as dente, which I like my pasta that way, the more al dente, the better! The tomatoes used are very flavourful and very delicious. The funghi inside the ravioli is remarkable as well as the shrimps.

This is one place you shouldn't miss when you visit Tagaytay City. It is located in Cliffhouse. Address is # 4 Cliffhouse, Tagaytay City. This Italian restaurant in Tagaytay is highly recommended!
