Every time we go out, hang-out or even just relax at the mall or anywhere; what will be our usual question? "What to do?" - I don't think so. "Where to go?" - Not really. "What to buy?" - Maybe, but not usually. Actually, this is what most people ask when going out, "Where are we going to eat?". It is considered a difficult question because it is very confusing, decisions of the people with you must match to everyone in order to make a final decision. Another, why is it difficult to answer that question, because there are a lot of choices on where to eat. Just thinking different options regarding the prices, the location, the variety of food and the quality of food, definitely very confusing. Also, other people consider the type of food they want to eat, if it is healthy, high on quality or just something different.
I am definitely a food hunter, interested on different types of food and different restaurants. Actually, any will do, even if it is fast-food, small eatery, bistro, restaurant and also restobars because I just want to see something different and unique about the products and services they offer. Actually what important is the way they will satisfy the customers and make sure that the customers will come back, wanting for more.
22nd of May 2012, I went to a newly opened restobar around Cavite, Philippines. It is located, opposite of the main entrance of SM Bacoor, behind ChikBoy (name of a restaurant), and part of the "The New City Hub" building. It is actually easy to see, because it's a bit far from the other restobars, it is a plus for them because they are very easy to notice. *wink*
The restobar name is:
~TAKEYA Restobar ~
TAKEYA restobar is I think a Hawaiian themed restobar because of how it is designed. The walls are made up of bamboo sticks. Chairs and Tables are made up of wood (strong type of wood of course) and Hawaiian fire torches are easily noticed (it is actually why I think it is Hawaiian themed) *wink*. The design is actually good because when you enter, you will see the bar with very cute green lights and there is like stacks of glasses that made it very interesting. Then, servers will be approaching you (very attentive) and will be escorting you to your seats. Then from your place, you will see the bar and the billiard tables (pictures shown below). The place is a bit dark, (because it is a restobar) and when a server presents their menu, they will be carrying a tiny flashlight with them and will light towards the menu in order for the customers to read the menu well (good idea).
The food in Takeya restobar is really interesting; here are some pictures on what the menu looks like.
TAKEYA Restobar's MENU
TAKEYA Restobar offers different types of food. They offer "Manukan" (different types of Chicken Dish), "Yamang Dagat" (different types of Seafood Dish), "Babuyan" (different types of Pork Dish), "Bakahan" (Beef Dishes), "Sizzling ni Chef Choy" (different sizzling dishes), "Pampahaba Ng Buhay" (Noodle Dishes), "Sari-saring Luto Ng Kanin" (different ways of Rice Dish), "Pang Foodtrip ni Chef" (combined rice and viands in 1 type of dish), "Damputan" (snacks perfect with alcoholic drinks) and more. But, the very interesting type of food that they offer are EXOTIC DISHES. They have different dishes for HORSE MEAT, GOAT MEAT, BOAR MEAT and many more. Unique right? definitely very interesting! Of course they offer alcoholic drinks such as Beer, Gin and etc.
This is what we ordered when we tried Takeya:
(These are very delicious dishes, not only that they look yummy, but they tasted much more than what your eyes are saying).
And yes, we didn't try any of the Exotic dishes, we wanted to but we are not that sure if we will be having a right decision. *wink*
>> Prices for the food will not go beyond P250.00 <<
( High quality of food yet very affordable )

Entertainments offered in TAKEYA Restobar:
To those who enjoy playing Billiards, they offer playing Billiards for a fee. (sorry, wasn't able to ask how much it is) but it is very fun playing while hanging out with your friends. So that, you will not get bored while drinking and eating. Another is that, they have a stage for live bands, Acoustic bands are usually playing but when we visited, it is an open-mic night so, to those who likes singing (drunk or not drunk) would really enjoy it here *wink*. Plus, they have a very cute bar with green lights, you can sit beside the bar while talking to the bartender (of course he would entertain you) and while watching him make you drinks.
By The Way; * Guests are given complimentary shots * (define AWESOME - TAKEYA! *wink*)

Me and a friend of mine really had a great time, we actually came from SM Bacoor just to hang around and yet we want to try something different for our food, that is why we tried eating here. And another, I am invited by another friend of mine, but NO, I didn't come here just to support my friend, actually I was hiding when I arrived. I just wanted to see how the place is and what food they offer. I would not be a true friend if I am biased and another, I don't have to lie if there won't be anything to lie about. The food is great, awesome variety of food and the ambiance is really great for a typical restobar (Restobar by the way is, restaurant infused with bar, LOL).
Just a proof on how we enjoyed the night (especially their food):
(BTW, we are only two when we tried TAKEYA)
*TAKEYA Restobar opens during 6:00 p.m. - 2:00 a.m. (Monday - Thursday) and 6:00 p.m. - 4:00 a.m. (Friday - Sunday) *
So, what can you say? TAKEYA! If you are seeking for an interesting dining experience with great food, great ambiance with great service, why not try this restobar, affordable, interesting and easy to locate. The people here are very jolly, the servers are very attentive and the place is comfortable for a restobar. If you are seeking for a very fun night life, this is a place for it. If seeking for a great food and worth the price, this is the place for it. If seeking for a place where you will have fun and will definitely not waste your time, go plan now because I'm sure that this is the place for YOU!
