At a very young age, Ryan Jay Dimapilis, son of Mr. Reynaldo and Mrs. Josefina Dimapilis, has shown an interest in entrepreneurship. This combined with his love for food as resulted in Ryan dabbling into several food concepts, starting with his first original restaurant, T-Bone King and Grill which became a popular steak destination in the south of Metro Manila.
The of T-Bone King Steak & Grill made his family entrust another project to him. This time to continue the development and expansion of their family-owned business, the Farm Hills Garden Events & Catering.
A private yet accessible getaway tucked in the serene and lush area of Silang, Cavite, Farm Hills Garden offers spacious and relaxing rooms ideal for couples, families, and groups. With amenities such as a café, restaurant, game room, and swimming pool, this place provides a balanced combination of fun and relaxation amidst aesthetic flora that encapsulates Silang’s natural beauty and allure.
“It was just a small idea among our family and friends that turned into a beautiful and lush haven for bridal events. We initially just want to provide an alternative wedding venue, which started when my sibling got married in January 2017. In just a few years, this has become one of the sought-after events places as well as a bed & breakfast for metro dwellers who are seeking reprieve from being locked down in Metro Manila for many months due to the pandemic,” Ryan shared.
Farm Hills Garden’s newest establishment is Attique de Bella, a café located at the topmost area of the events place. It offers a Parisian vibe with its chic interior and French-inspired menu made perfect with the lush view and cool breeze of Silang.
“With so much demand for aesthetic interiors among the younger generation, we envisioned Attique de Bella as the perfect place for those trendy occasions may it be with family, friends, or special someone. Attique de Bella is also one of those projects that we never planned to have but it happened, and we’re delighted to see the amazing support from its guests,” Ryan told.
From the success of his French-inspired project, Royan looked towards Asia with Ryoukai, A Japanese-themed restaurant offering Japan’s most comforting and well-loved dishes, Ryoukai gained popularity for its flavorful and filling Tantanmen.
A Filipino restaurant was born when the pandemic struck. To help ensure his employees’ wages, Ryan launched a food delivery service within the Silang and Tagaytay area offering Filipino food. This idea spanned into a 5,000-square-meter space after a few months and turned into what is called now Balai Palmera Restaurant and Pasalubong Center.
Balai Palmera offers a refreshing take on Filipino food topped with come Filipino service that will make every visit pleasant and memorable. While the restaurant has only one branch, for now, the Pasalubong Center has two branches already in Silang, Cavite, ready to offer Balai’s version of Pinoy’s favorite Buko Pie.
