Venice Piazza

09.14.2012 by Leah // 2 Comments

AJ has been telling me about Venice Piazza at McKinley Hill in Taguig for a time, and he took me there one rainy Saturday so we can stroll around the piazza and check out the sights.

Venice Piazza, as it name implies, looks like a small city square (“piazza“) with a mall that houses a variety of restaurants.  It also has a paved open space that’s perfect for events, mini-concerts and bazaars.

Too bad it was raining hard that Saturday afternoon so we weren’t able to see more of the piazza but we were able to look around the mall and found these interesting restaurants:

Seeing all these restaurants really made us regret taking our early dinner at Taparazzi, but there was still room for dessert so we scouted for a nice after-dinner place to chill and have coffee.

We found Sol Gelato, which serves Italian gelato or ice cream.

We tried their Affogato (P150.00), which comes with 2 big ice cream scoops that you can choose from among their selections.

I chose the Coffee Crunch and Mascarpone Cheese flavors for my gelato, and they’re perfect for the pretty strong expresso!

Sol Gelato is definitely worth trying, and so are the many restaurants lining up Venice Piazza.  I can already see ourselves trying out the Ramen Bar next, and then cap it with another round of Affogato only at Sol Gelato.

Hi Daddy! Lapit na ang birthday mo, and you will c Hi Daddy! Lapit na ang birthday mo, and you will celebrate it in heaven na ☁️☁️☁️ Pero kasama mo pa rin kami magce-celebrate. Same as last year, we will celebrate it at home dahil may #covid_19 pa rin. You will remember that last year, yours is the first birthday we celebrated in quarantine. I just came from Baguio (for work) and  someone from our group tested positive. Hindi na tayo nakapagpa-picture dahil puro nasa #covid_19 ang attention natin. We miss you, daddy! I hope you like your flowers today, mas marami na green leaves kaysa flowers. Just the way you like it. 💚💚 #theoriginalplantito
This Pecan Bread Pudding from @ecoookie is a disco This Pecan Bread Pudding from @ecoookie is a discovery of my foodie mom @minildade and it is my favorite #quarantinedessert so far. It taste of home, with warmth and love in every bite! 💕 It's great for breakfast or even as dessert. Best eaten warm with  vanilla cream generously poured on top! 😋

It's so spacious and so safe in there. I wore double masks (KN95 and fabric mask from @quins.ph) and my favorite scrub cap from @unisol.ph_ with buttons on both sides for the mask ear loops. It kept my ears from hurting and kept my hair intact too. Never mind if I look more like a nurse than a patient here 😁 Safety first over porma 😜
Taken in February last year just as Japan was star Taken in February last year just as Japan was starting to feel the effects of the #covid_19 pandemic. Hiroshima is a beautiful city and here I was able to take off my face mask because halos walang tao sa mga tourist sites that we went to. Hindi lang halata here but my hands were already burned because of too much washing with disinfectant alcohol 😬

So grateful to have visited this historic city in this extraordinary time.
