Tower Lounge and Steak Bar at One Tagaytay Place Hotel

Tower Lounge and Steak Bar is one of the two dining options (aside from Azalea the lobby restaurant and bar) located at the 3rd floor of the One Tagaytay Place Hotel Suites in Barrio Sungay, Tagaytay City. We were treated to a scrumptious meal, which you can see below. Tower Lounge and Steak Bar is really known for its very delicious and tasty steaks, and signature drinks. They have a live band you can sing along to every Friday. The restaurant opens from 6pm to 1am daily. (Check out the menu here, and the bar list here)

For starters, we were served a spicy Onion Soup. It was spicy, a little bit more than what's normally served, but I like it that way. I can taste the onions and some croutons with the soup, which is good, because I like to taste and feel my food. Then came the Salad, Tagaytay greens with some cucumber, tomatoes, cheese and croutons. The thousand island dressing was not for me. It would have been better with some sweet-spicy Asian dressing or Caesar, but everything else was fresh and perfect.

One of their bestsellers, is the rolled pizza. It's made of thin crust pie with the veggies and the mozzarella cheese rolled to a perfect bite. Don't forget to add their original sweet and spicy sauce which will make it taste even better. The star of the night was the steak, of course! I ordered a medium rib-eye steak, which exploded with satisfying flavor and taste, even without all those sauces (as some Steakhouses usually do, to infuse more flavor to their steaks, and make them more tasty). It's a must try when you visit the place! :)

Tower Lounge is in fact, also a bar, therefore it serves drinks. As a customary welcome drink, they serve you with a Bacardi infused concoction that will surely warm you up. You can also opt to try their "5 Tower of Power", one of the Tower Lounge signature drinks (photo below).

Another bestseller in their drinks selection is the "Green Minded," selling at Php 380 per pitcher. It's one of the alternative drinks I would recommend if you are not into the hard drinks. It is good for unwinding with a group of friends.

They also have delicious desserts. We were given an option if we wanted the Tiramisu or fried ice cream in tempura batter. I love how rich the Tiramisu was, and the fried Tempura Ice Cream won me over. :)

Tower Lounge and Steak Bar is an idyllic place to chill out with friends and have dinner not just because of its great food and drinks, but also because of the atmosphere and ambiance of the alfresco dining area at night. I am certain that you will love the place.

Enjoying Tagaytay at One Tagaytay Place Hotel Suites

Tagaytay has been one of the more popular and favorite destinations of both Filipinos and foreigners because of its breathtaking view, food finds, and the cool climate. Not to mention, it is just situated around 1-2 hours drive south of Metro Manila, the capital of the Philippines. I recall vividly of our short impromptu trips to Tagaytay from school, when my college friends and I feel like escaping from the hustle and bustle of school and the metro. We would just enjoy the view, and the food, of course!

Just recently, I came from One Tagaytay Place Hotel Suites in Barrio Sungay, Tagaytay City. We were invited by Tower Lounge Steak Bar, one of the dining places in One Tagaytay Place Hotel. From Sta. Rosa or Greenfields South Luzon Expressway (SLEX) exit, you turn left (going to Picnic Grove and Tagaytay Highlands) once you reach the junction in Tagaytay. One Tagaytay Place is, less than 800 meters from the junction, to your left.

It's summer, so have a Fling!



Before heading to our destination, Taal View Heights, in Talisay Batagas for the Philippine Blog Awards strat-planning, we stopped over in Tagaytay to indulge in a semi-food-trip and glutton over Bag of Beans, Fling and Buon Giorno over at Cliffhouse in Tagaytay City.

Bag of Beans was our first destination, our "pre-pre-lunch," as my fellow bloggers suggested. I just had a cup of brewed coffee and hash brown. After Bag of Beans, we headed to Cliffhouse to have Fling, which is famous for its frozen yogurt.

I had a casual (Php 85) Fling with apples on top (+Php25) which costs Php 110 in total. The apples were sort of Flambé, minus the alcohol, and placed on top of the Froyo. The base yogurt wasn't as sweet as all the froyos I have tasted (which is good for me), while the sauteed apples were a bit tangy, which contrasted with the yogurt. It was a yummy dessert - I love it! :)

This was what Juned got - the topping is quite like Mochi, or what the saleslady says to be like "bilo-bilo," or rice balls.
