Owned by local artist Jun Tiongco, the dining area of the restaurant alone is like a piece of art. It would remind you of stained glass mosaic windows you’d see in church, but instead of stone, it features domes made of bamboo. Blending with its surroundings, it’s a hidden garden restaurant that’s not only filling for the tummy but also for the soul. Who wouldn’t feel healed at a place as relaxing as this?
