Each table had quite a display, feeling as if a mini jungle had come to life from all the greenery and flowers. It was thanks to the trio of Nena Tantoco’s Tree of Thanks and Giving, Pat Pastelero Tanedo’s Spruce, and Cyndi Fernandez’s Moss Manila that truly brought life to the venue’s halls. Lunchtime had guests visiting every corner of the space to try various treats and delicacies.
It’s hard not to forget just how mouthwatering the wait for a slice off the rack of lamb was. Just as pleasant to the taste buds was the osso buco , quite the soft, savory treat that can send anyone in a blissful food coma. For drinks, the Pilgrim’s Coffee Shop cart setup provides exceptional coffee and a cute, Instagrammable setup that looks pulled straight from a Parisian film.
Those in the mood for a stronger kick had the pleasure of being treated to exciting mixed drinks from Fun Cocktails PH. The Lavender Haze mix provided quite the tropical punch with its use of lemon orange and pineapple. What’s next for the prestigious event space?
