TAZA Fresh Table at Taal Vista Hotel, Tagaytay

0 Comment February 7, 2015

Great food. Incredible setting. Wonderful climate.

That is exactly what TAZA Fresh Table promises customers and guests when they visit Tagaytay City, the country’s 2nd summer capital.

TAZA Fresh Table is Taal Vista Hotel’s new restaurant located at The Ridge overlooking the Taal Lake and Volcano.

The name “TAZA” is derived from the Arabic word Taaza which means “fresh”.

You probably want to know what makes TAZA Fresh Table different from other restaurants in Tagaytay City as well as perhaps in Metro Manila. Well, 95% of the ingredients used by TAZA are sourced from regions where they are produced, such as duck from Laguna, lobster from Batangas, mangoes from Cebu, coffee beans and black rice from Negros Island and organic herbs and vegetables from Benguet, Cavite, Batangas, as well as Taal Vista Hotel’s very own garden.

Amazing Asilo

I’ve always dreamt of having my own property in Tagaytay… even just a small one.

Ever since I was a kid, I would happily look forward to long road trips heading off to places with cold climates. Tagaytay and Baguio were always at the top of my list.

When I got married, my wife and I would daydream and talk about having a second home in Tagaytay where our family could easily get away from all the hullabaloo and stress of the Metropolis. An escape of sorts.

But where exactly would one be able to find that perfect spot where the conveniences of the metro (sans the hurly-burly) melds seamlessly with the unique and wonderful environment of Tagaytay? With all the development brought about by Tagaytay’s beauty and booming economy, choosing that perfect spot place can be quite tedious.

I recently learned about “Asilo Tagaytay” – a property being developed by Avida Land, the affordable housing arm of Ayala Land.

Derived from the word “silong”, which means “to take shelter”, Asilo Tagaytay is a mixed-use residential development that offers a second home or vacation home for buyers. This is a wonderful property for people who want to enjoy breathtaking views overlooking the Taal Lake and Volcano and soak in the cool, refreshing climate that Tagaytay is famous for. It is also a prime choice for those who wish to invest in a place to lease, with the assistance of Avida’s Leasing Services.
