THE BAYLEAF HOTEL INTRAMUROS - Sizzling Bulalo, Sensational views and 5 Star luxury

It's still Manila Restaurant Week and so here's another great opportunity for the luxury-conscious diner. 15% off at the Fab 9 Spoons Restaurant at Bayleaf Hotel in the Intramuros until July 4. It's a chance to spend some time marvelling at, what are probably, the most sensational views Manila has to offer. Plus enjoy a Sizzling Bulalo while you're at it! Take it from me, Food & Travel Investigations don't get much better than this.

Make sure you have enough body guards to prevent yourself being mugged in the are. If you could turn back time, some time in mid 1970s, the area is relatively safe.

[@herminiasmith1357]

@@marshallbuttersvlogs6880 Perhaps you might check out Malacanang if you could video there? The late Pres. Noy Noy Aquino did not live there, and from what I read, neither does Pres. Duterte. But there is a museum there that's open to the public but you need to make a reservation. I had a high school teacher who was married to the Director of Education, and our class was able to go there as a field trip, because at the time, the Dept. of Agriculture was across the Pasig from the palace and we had to observe how the staff would "milk" the cobras for venom ---ugh!! But the visit to the palace redeemed that horrific scene as I was totally in awe of the palace.---Also, near there is the restaurant Casa Roces which was the ancestral home of the Roces family which used to own the biggest publishing company in the Philippines before martial law was declared by Pres. Marcos. I think, this would be a good contrast to Cafe Juanita? Since I can't go there myself ---I now have anxiety about traveling on a very long flight from Dulles to Manila for fear of developing DVT, aside from the pandemic --- I'd just hope to see your take on these places. Thanks.

I'm so happy for this Restaurant's business ,seems that Diners have returned already .It is just so depressing ,if you dine in a restaurant /cafe and you're the only patron . Its just feel so horrible for the proprietor/tress. I will definitely dine there ,during my next vacation .I cancelled my travel to the Philippines thrice already . Fortunately ,I was able to travel to Greece last month ,but it is still chaotic /stressful at the airport ,due to COVID-19 test requirement and Vaccination proof ,as well. Thanks Marshall for another wonderful vlog. Didnt skip any ADS to help you recoup part of the cost of that mouthwatering Bulalo !!
