The presentation of the food is breathtaking, I felt guilty touching and eating from the plates. But after I did I realized it would be a crime not to indulge in the elevated flavors in it's modern Filipino dishes. I took dozens of photos with only a few posted to Yelp.

Food - we ordered fried dalag fish (meaty), fried hito, tortang talong (eggplant) which was quite large and perfectly cooked, crispy pata, grilled pork belly, fresh vegetable lumpiang ubod (generous amount of crunchy ubod (bamboo shoot) sprinkled with crushed peanuts and chopped green mango with salted eggs. My favorites were the fresh lumpia and the tortang talong. The preparations were traditional and classic Filipino - no twists, no pretense. The prices were very reasonable. Just basic good food that won't break the bank.

Today it's a beautiful 3 story house at the top of the mountain overlooking Laguna Bay, Manila & Makati. We stopped at Buhay Kawayan to grab a late lunch w/my buddy, my wife & 2 brother in laws (yes they follow us everywhere lol). Buhay Kawayan is a very popular spot in Taytay on Manila E Road Barangay Pag asa. We ordered some of our favs like crispy pata, Bangus, squid adobo, veges dish w/bitter melon, yellow squash, okra, tomato, onion & garlic. Eggplant omelette & of course rice. Filipinos seem to eat rice @ every meal. (No Carbs when I return to the US). Excellent food & service one of the few Filipino restaurants that had quick service. They operated at a slower pace (Island life).

They serve Filipino food which suit to our taste and it's good. The crew are very approachable.read more

It is just too expensive. I love how they keep up to cook exotic foods and also the museum is cool very scary tho but it is actually amazing experience in there. I will go there again whenever my friend are available. The ambiance is cool too. Very old style

This particular establishment stood out because I was searching for art that felt indigenous to the Philippine Islands. The paintings, woodwork, building architecture & masks here are beautiful.

We got some Filipino pancit canton and a bucket of beer and enjoyed the fresh air. Cloud 9 is a nice escape from the city and it is only about 30-40 minutes away from Katipunan so it's not a hassle to get here as well. In Cloud 9, they have a hanging bridge connecting the restaurant to a view deck. It's best to go up here in the daytime or at sunset to enjoy the 360 degree views. Nightime may be a little dangerous to cross through the bridge and the view isn't as great at night either. There were lots of trees and greens on one side while you had the view of the city and the sunset on the other side. Cloud 9 surprised me because I had no expectations before going but ended up really liking the simple Filipino ambiance and lovely views.
