Diners looking to indulge in something new and exciting–and yet, still bask in the familiar, familial comforts we’ve loved for 25 years–can get the best of both worlds at the new Conti’s Bakeshop and Restaurant in Tagaytay. The former takeout nook recently expanded and is now a full-service restaurant located at Lake Hotel.
The new branch now offers a plethora of dishes, drinks and breakfast combos that would satiate the hunger while offering a view that is worth the drive. Start the meal with Smoked Salmon Sourdough, smoked salmon with dill and cream cheese on top of toasted sourdough bread. This is served with salad on the side.
Then there’s Queso Chorizo Fundido — sautéed chorizo baked in marinara sauce with sharp cheddar cheese and mozzarella. This is served with a sunny side up egg on top and matched with toasted sourdough bread sticks.
For those who love sandwiches, there’s Croque Madame, featuring forest ham and creamy hollandaise in-between brioche bread. There is also the Homemade Ham Croissant, a buttery, flaky pastry filled with Conti’s homemade ham roll, cheddar cheese and mozzarella.
Conti’s Tagaytay also offers a Breakfast Medley, a mini-menu consisting of three different dishes, each with a mouth-watering combination of two classic favorites: Perfect Filipino Plate serves up smoked boneless bangus and pork tocino; Really Meaty Plate pairs homemade beef tapa strips with bacon bagnet; and, Chef’s Special Plate has mom’s garlic longganisa and bacon bagnet. Each dish comes with sunny side-up eggs.
Customers can also enjoy a wider array of coffee flavors from the new coffee line selections. These beverage items will also be available exclusively in the Tagaytay branch.
The beauty, mystery, and majesty of the Taal Lake and Volcano is best enjoyed from a select number of coveted vantage points in Tagaytay. More often than not, these ideal vantage points and viewing decks are available only by paying one’s way as a hotel, resort, or AirBnb guest.
However, Conti’s Tagaytay customers and diners have access to the Lake Hotel viewing deck, which opens to one of the best views of Taal Lake and Volcano. The Conti’s Tagaytay view deck dining area provides a cool and refreshing al fresco experience. Set against the backdrop of the picturesque world-famous Taal Lake and volcano, diners will have lots of spots to take IG-worthy photos.
