Operatic
Those who visit this blog regularly may have noticed by now that I have a thing for restaurant interiors. This is Café Puccini, an Italian restaurant at the Fort Strip in Taguig City's Bonifacio Global City. In this case, it was the stone oven and the golden chandelier that caught my eye. Our shy server didn't quite know where to look when she saw me taking pictures in her direction.
Such a beautiful design - I would love to dine there - I see a portrait of Andrea Bochelli - he has a voice from heaven! I'm a big fan of Bocheli!
ReplyDeleteYes, interior and food. Hope you enjoyed the pizza or whatever came out of the stone oven.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic looking place Hilda! I like the chandelier too. They seem to have a gold theme going on with the color on the wall. I like it!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful picture! Like being in Italia! And I am also a big fan of Boccelli!
ReplyDeleteThis one looks nice and 'warm':) Great, inviting inside! Nice shot!
ReplyDeleteLove this shot! The angle is great and the colors are great and the place is great. Stone oven? Wow.
ReplyDeleteIt ain't a McDonalds!
Yes, she does looks a bit off balance in this photo. ;)
ReplyDeleteI'd love to enjoy a meal there with you, Hilda.
Thats a real pizza oven !
ReplyDeleteCozy photo, Hilda! Nice angle. I hope the food tasted as good as the decor! Bon appetit!
ReplyDeleteHi Hilda! Thank you for your message in my blog! Yes, this place is very magical and special to both of us, and the weather helped, we had a beautiful sunny day.
ReplyDeleteI loved your blogs, I love being at home either but like you I don´t have much time...
very nice this photo, this must be a good restaurante, i love italian food! Very beautiful also the photo of Manila Cathedral.
Be welcome to visit my Florianopolis blog anytime you want!
This is a very nice restaurant and your photo revealed many interesting Tuscan things in this place.
ReplyDeleteLook at the painting on the left of the arch (castle on the sea) and then follow this link: Boccale Castle, one of the most picturesque spot on the Livorno coast.
It looks like the other diners hid too! Lol!
ReplyDeleteIt looks a lovely place to eat.
I like the angle of the photo. I'm just wondering where all the other people are.
ReplyDeletePeople do tend to hide from the camera lens. Great shot, Hilda.
ReplyDeletehope the food was good! A great looking place
ReplyDeleteWhat a cool place. Love the wall, the oven, the archway. I'd love to have a meal there. Please keep eating out and keep showing us these wonderful places. Enjoy Hilda!
ReplyDeleteI like seeing the interiors of restaurants. This one looks like a good place for a bite!
ReplyDeleteun beau petit coin de l'Italie ;o) belle couleur dans ce restaurant.
ReplyDeletea nice small corner of Italy; o) nice colour in this restaurant
The place looks so good with that golden hue spread across. hope the food was delicious too.
ReplyDeleteHi Hilda - thanks for the lovely welcoming comment on my blog. You are too kind.
ReplyDeleteYour comment here about the employee is spot on. People often become self-conscious in front of a lens - and not just in Manilla!
The angle of your shot makes this photo really interesting. The chandelier is lovely.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my blog!
Nice looking place. Looks like one of the Bee Gee's on the wall.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great atmosphere and I like the composition.
ReplyDeleteGreat warm colors and mural!
ReplyDeleteI'm enjoying your restaurant interiors series. You visit such beautiful and fascinating restaurants.
ReplyDeleteLeif, Ken Mac, Priyanka:
ReplyDeleteYes, the food was very good, though on the expensive side. For us anyway.
James:
This was at an odd hour, around 2:00 p.m. (a very late lunch for us). Those who had lunch there were done and it was too early for the afternoon snack, much less dinner.
«Louis» enjoys your restaurant interior series - even if it isn't a planned series.
ReplyDeleteAwesome Really confuse from where to take photographs.It's wonderful.
