The City of Tagaytay (Filipino: Lungsod ng Tagaytay) is a component city in the province of Cavite, in the Philippines. It is one of the country's most popular tourist destinations because of outstanding scenery and cooler climate provided by its high altitude. Tagaytay overlooks Taal Lake in Batangas and provides one of the iconic views of the Philippines, the view of Taal Volcano Island in the middle of the lake, viewable from several vantage points in the city.
Tagaytay is relatively close to the capital city of Manila, only 55 km (34 mi) away via Aguinaldo Highway, providing an easy escape for the locals from the heat of the big city. More info here

Sweet and Sour Lapu-Lapu. This fish in english is called Grouper, can be found in Philippines and is quite expensice due to its delicious taste. This fish shouldn't be confused with Lapu-Lapu (1491–1542), the ruler of Mactan, an island in the Visayas, Philippines, who is known as the first native of the archipelago to have resisted the Spanish colonization. He is now regarded, retroactively, as the first Filipino hero. He is also known under the names Çilapulapu, Si Lapulapu, and Kali Pulako (alternatively spelled as Cali Pulaco),though the historicity of the names are disputed.
PINAKBET or pakbet is a popular Ilokano dish, from the northern regions of the Philippines, although it has become popular throughout the archipelago. The word is the contracted form of the Ilokano word pinakebbet, meaning "shrunk" or "shriveled". The original Ilokano pinakbet uses bagoong, of fermented monamon or other fish, while further south, bagoong alamang is used. The basic vegetables used in this dish include native bitter melon, eggplant, tomato, okra, string beans, chili peppers, parda, winged beans, and others. Root crops and some beans like camote, patani, kadios are also optionally added. The young pod of marunggay is also added.
Bulalo or Beef Bone Marrow
Many cultures have used bone marrow as food throughout history. Anthropologists believe that early humans were scavengers rather than hunters in some regions of the world. Marrow would have been a useful food source (largely due to its fat content) for tool-using hominids, who were able to crack open the bones of carcasses left by apex predators such as lions.

From its inception, Nuvali was developed with one thing in mind: Evoliving, a way of life that promotes intelligent and systematic care for the environment, enriches the community, and values its people. Low-density residential neighborhoods are designed to promote a healthy social atmosphere without overcrowding. It's a metropolitan development project representing Ayala Land's approach to master planning, whereby some 50 percent of residential areas are devoted to open spaces, and it's the first large-scale development in the Philippines to be built on the principles of sustainable design.
