One Tagaytay Date

Love is in the air...then.

When i think of spending my valentine's day with friends, i have nothing in my mind but Tagaytay City. Yes, that's how fanatic i am of this gorgeous city. Aside from the fact that its only a 30-40 mins drive from our place, Tagaytay is such a remarkable place for this city has a lot to offer, whether you go from a budget to grandest place(s).

This season, we choose to challenge ourselves by spending less than 1K (as inspired by other travel blogger) on this particular date rather than spending freely, then sooner realize that you already overspent. We list only two itinerary for this extraordinary day - Jardineros and One Tagaytay Place. 

Jardineros is known for their mesclun salad. As expected, they gave us a free taste salad dressing for us to decide which kind of salad to order.

Pesto dressing for me is way too much better than others. Nonetheless, we ordered vinaigrette salad as this is one of their best seller. If your're a fan of vinaigrette salad, you'll appreciate this one as much as I did.

Vinaigrette Salad around P180

We also ordered Spinach Pizza. For a pizza lover like me, I admire the taste and how mushroom and spinach and a bit of mozzarella cheese complements with each other and the freshness of this organic ingredients were absolutely perfect. It makes we wanting and craving for more. The only problem is that this serving for me isn't that great. =(

Spinach Pizza around P250

My two flamboyant dates, Joyee and Chelle

My Plate for a total of P143 (total expenses were divided into 3)

You may want to consider buying various organic vegetables, huge tomatoes for instance... 

You may find Jardineros at the left side of the road going to Tagaytay.

We finished the meal with this magnificent turon. The presentation was sumptuous in my sight. (Thanks Joyee for this this marvelous shot)

Witness the beauty of the place...

This eye catching spa advertisement would make you want to conclude the night by pampering yourself with a good massage. If there's any disadvantage of going on a budgeted date, this is to deprive yourself with a thing that you might do that same day, but rather not to. Patience is a virtue. And so a good spa for now is being lined - up for our next date.
