Date Ideas: Where to eat? Best Fine Dining Restaurants this February 2012

It’s love month. Thinking about a place for a date? The Best Restaurants listed below are the commonly asked and searched dining places. For sure the time you bring your special someone here it’s not only a usual date but also a romantic one.

Marco Polo Davao’s Café Marco, Lotus Court and Polo Bistro. Who would question the food served in these outlets of the Marco Polo Hotel? With the International Cuisine served in a fresh and wider selection of food it’s no question to be a date with “unlimited love.” Café Marco is buffet restaurant which will only cost you almost a thousand per person.

Considered as one of the finest restaurants in the Philippines. Lotus Court is an A la Carte Restaurant serving Cantonese Cuisine. Having your date here will surely give you a big YES from you special one.

A date near the swimming pool? Polo Bistro is serving A la Carte with its Western Cuisine. They also have Set Menu arranged for you from the very meticulous taste of their executive chef. The first expression I heard after suggesting a date at Polo Bistro was, “Lovely Date with a Col Literally, the water is dancing with colors. Imagine a date with an excellent service, ambiance, cuisine. A date night of a lifetime – ROMANTIC!orful Water.”

Sebo Massage Spa

With so many procrastinations of bringing myself to a massage spa house, I finally was able to bring myself in. After my long hours work, I literally experienced an ALL PARTS MASSAGE!

Yes it’s a sensual WHOLE BODY massage but wholesome. I was heavenly touched and relaxed. Wondering about the place? It’s named SEBO Massage Spa located at Matina, Davao City.

Who want it HARD? You actually have the choice if you want the service to be done by a male or a female therapist. The service is really good, very relaxing. I had a combination of Swedish, Shiatsu and Hot Stone which I only paid for Php 300.

Personal experience: No body pains!

Given the question for ideal places this 2012, I was challenged to gather the best places as top tourist destination in Davao this year. With personal knowledge and idea from people who were at this places let me give you the list:
  
1)      SAMAL ISLAND. If you are looking for SUN, SEA and ADVENTURE you should enlist any of the Samal Island beach resort.The island is only 40-45 minutes away from the heart of Davao City. A Deep-blue or Swallow-green water will surely promise fun activities like diving, swimming, kayaking, snorkeling, banana or jet riding and island hopping. From the most expensive like Pearl Farm to the most reasonable and comfortable like Paradise Island, you have the chance of saying IT’S REALLY FUN IN DAVAO!
2)      EDEN. A nature park overlooking the city, this place is ideal for family wanting to unwind and feel renewed hearing the natural sounds of life. Eden is the most accessible peak in Davao. You have the chance of seeing organic plants raised in the place, animal in their mini-zoo, boat riding and fishing or a tour around the 80 acres land while seeing the remains of Mt. Talomo. They also have Camp Houses for your overnight stay and Zipline, Indiana Jones Ride and many other activities ideal for your family bonding or teambuilding. Wondering about food? They have a buffet lunch freshly available for you. A 40-50 minutes drive from the City will bring you to EDEN.

If your kids love animals like Big Lizard (my cousin referred this for crocodile,) Birds on show, monkeys, tiger and many other animals you should include Crocodile Farm on your list.
