Food Trip: TORCH Restaurant, Greenhills

I've always wanted to try Torch Restaurant after hearing glowing reviews left and right. So when Marj Sia (who's friends with the owner) sent me an invite to a gastronomic feast at Torch with some blogger friends, I quickly said yes. It was a indeed an awesome night spent in great company, over great food and nice music. We love their playlist! Hehe. So without further ado, here are photos from the feast that was. Hope you're not reading this with an empty stomach. Hehe.

happy bloggers!

Thank you Marj for inviting us!

Overall, it was a delightful experience. It's the perfect place to chill and bond with your family or friends over great food. The prices are reasonable and servings are generous. It's officially our new favorite hangout place since it's near all of us (except Ana). It's also easy to find being situated along Connecticut Drive, Greenhills. When cruising EDSA (south bound) just turn right when you see KFC and just watch out for the huge Torch signage at your right.;) See you there?:)


 
Torch Restaurant is one of Manila's best restaurant which serves an array of cuisine from thin crisp gourmet pizzas, sizzling marbled angus steaks, and oven baked sushis. There is surely anything for everyone. Serving breakfast from 7:00AM until late hours for cocktails. Perfect for dates, families, and friends. It's a must go to when in Manila!
