Last October 2, 2017, I
attended the Zomato Food Crawl at
the newly opened Lamp Quarters in
Marikina. Also, it’s been a while since I last attended a Zomato Food
Crawl so I’m so excited to share my experience today. Will also be sharing a
separate review of each restaurant we visited so please watch out for that.
Lamp
Quarters is one of the newest food hub opened at the famous Gil Fernando Avenue (a long strip in Marikina full of restaurants and food hubs). With
the tag line, “Live. Love. Local”, the
owners of Lamp Quarters want to create a venue and environment that gives opportunities
for local, up and coming, talented entrepreneurs and starters to showcase their
talents and craftmanship in the community.
What differentiate this place among the rest, the place
comprises of 7 different restaurants
with wide range of cuisines that compliments each other well. They have an
open-air area, garden courtyard with lighted trees and lamps that promotes a
quaint, romantic and relaxing ambiance. It’s a fun filled family oriented and
pet friendly place that sets apart from the loud and noisy bustle of night life
and hard bars.
First stop, we visited the Chives Bistro & Market which offers whirlwind
flavors from Europe and Asia. In 2016, they first opened their doors in
Antipolo and opened their 2nd restaurant here in Lamp Quarters
Marikina.
2nd stop, we went to Silyo Dmiela Pampanga Cuisine which
offers variety of traditional Kapampangan reciped, from pica pica to ulam, all
prepared to impress and make your dining experience memorable.
3rd stop, at Ahlee’s which offers freshes, grilled and
tasty dishes. They first opened their doors in Novemeber 2015 at Maginhawa in
Quezon City and the second one here at Lamp Quarters.
4th stop, at Bubba Lab which is close to my heart
since I discovered their very first branch in C&B Mall (near my alma mater,
St. Scho) in Marikina Heights, Marikina City.
5th stop, at Mehana by Yordanovi which specializes on
Bulgarian dishes.
And last but not the least, we also went to Wingfather Wings &
Booze which offers crafted drinks, delectable food and well curated music.
Here's what the place looks like at NIGHT.
By the way, I’ll be making a separate post of each restaurants
after this blog post. Also, I wanna thank Zomato
PH for the invite and opportunity to showcase these restaurants in my
hometown, Marikina.
