A breath of fresh air!
More people are coming out of isolation to experience the outside world again. Nonetheless, preventive measures are a must, which is why physical distancing, among other rules, is still being implemented especially within establishments. As such, to avoid huddling customers in a closed space, some restaurants are offering al fresco dining options. Al fresco restos have become quite the trend since the pandemic hit. So if you are looking for a nice place to eat but would appreciate an airy open space, here are some restaurants in Bonifacio Global City and Makati that offer outdoor dining.
1. Wantusawa
Craving for yummy and tasty oysters? Then head over to Wantusawa oyster bar! The store recently reopened at a new al fresco location at Rockwell, along Lopez Drive. Feast on fresh, baked, grilled, and even fried oysters when you visit them, and don’t forget to pair off your meal with a glass of wine. Other alcoholic beverages are also on the menu.
