Robinsons Antipolo: A foodie haven East of the Metro
Just over an hour’s drive from the country’s capital, Antipolo City serves as the gateway to Rizal province’s artistic culture and nature reserves. Sitting on a plateau connected to the slopes of the Sierra Madre mountain range, the elevation offers a fantastic panoramic view of Metro Manila and a cooler climate, making it a favorite among visitors of all ages who want to take a breather without needing to travel too far and too long.
Every year starting in May, the hilly municipality attracts throngs of tourists from all over the country, especially devotees participating in the monthlong celebration at Antipolo Cathedral venerating the 17th-century wooden image of Our Lady of Peace and Good Voyage. But visitors who frequent the area are not only of the religious kind. Nature adventurers as well as art lovers also make the trip to recharge, refresh and refill their souls with things they love, found in abundance in this city that’s rich in history.
But amid its lush environs and rich creative tradition sits a new hangout space with a promise of cuisine choices to match every guest’s particular culinary craving, whether it be for indoor or alfresco dining.
