Casa Marikit

My girlfriend and I are looking for a place where we can dine and celebrate our 2nd Year Anniversary. And then she remembered that she once saw an Italian Restaurant, Casa Marikit, at Banay-Banay Concepcion, Lipa City. So we've decided to give it a try.

The place is so quite and peaceful when we arrived. There are only a couple at that moment. We love the classy atmosphere, with some classic music playing at the background.



There really are lots of choices, we really can't decide hehe. But since we just came from a Christening Party, and we ate lots of meat, we decided to opt for a seafood menu.



I dont know what it's called but it taste good :)

Fettucini Marinara in White Sauce.

It's the first time we ordered a Marinara in white sauce, so we're excited to taste it. Infairness, the seafood can be tasted in the sauce. They would say that this would be good for 1-2 person, but I think its just for solo.


Quattro Formaggi
Then our pizza arrived. It is a four cheese, sliced into 8. It's crust is thin. And nothing to expect but cheese.

Some pictures taken at Casa Marikit :

this goes well with pasta and pizza :)

cheers to my bebe

Its a good thing we tried Casa Marikit. They also have there steaks and angus beef, but since we are really not a fan of those, we surely will comeback to try other pasta and pizza.

For you to have an idea :

Quatro Formaggi -  P395
Fettu - Marinara  -  P370
Super Dry           -  P70
Lavazza
(brewed coffee)   -  P80
Iced Tea              -  P50

Luca's Cucina Italia - Talipanan

Everytime we visit Puerto Galera, we make it a point to visit Luca's restaurant. Located at  the very end of Talipanan's beach. Even when we are lodging at White Beach, it is the first place that we visit. One of our all-time favorite is his Pasta Puttanesca(a must try)

This is what we are talking about!!! This is the real deal..


Not just pizza, but P-I-Z-Z-A

due to our extra-ordinary appetite, a cup of coffee after meals is always appreciated by our stomach :)

Aria - Boracay


If you are an Italian food fan, and it happens that you are in Boracay, then Aria is a must try! It’s a small restaurant located at Station 2, beach front. It was originally suggested to me and my bebe by a friend which had been in Bora a month-earlier than us.

It was the resto that we’ve searched when we arrived at Bora. And at last we found it, and immediately hopped inside.

Four-flavored pizza - really love the seafood flavored!! French toast-like texture.

Pasta Puttanesca - nothing extra ordinary
