One of the finest restaurants in the country, this upscale French-Euro-Filipino eatery offers the chance to rub elbows with politicians and oligarchs over delightfully presented dishes from foie-gras raclette to roast suckling pig – if you can get a reservation. Seating areas include some lovely tables in elegant dining rooms overlooking lotus ponds and a lush tropical garden. Also has a superb garden cocktail bar, the Lanai Lounge.
Book months ahead for weekends. Antonio’s has two satellite restaurants along the ridge in Tagaytay proper that, while good, should not be confused with the original. The turn-off is 7.6km west of the rotunda.
