When in Manila, if you like great food, great wine and great company plus a recipe originally from Italy with a twist for Filipino taste,  we go to Italiannis. But at South, where the sprawling first class subdivisions, gated communities and first class cities are accommodating more and more people because of the BPO industry, we don’t need to go to Manila to experience and taste the delectable mouth watering menu from Italiannis. 

 

 

At Solenad Nuvali located at Santa Rosa Laguna under Mayor Arlene Arcillas, Itallianis open it’s doors for us not to go far. When in Laguna, the only Italiannis branch will be found here. At Solenad 1 & 2 at Nuvali is poised not only a shopping destination of the south but a food trip destination because of the restaurants.  To date, business establishments have already sprung and in weekends, it has become a haven for nature lovers. This 4 hectare man-made wonder is not just for nature’s aesthetics but is a fully functioning recyclable source of water – to water the plants and trees in Nuvali Complex and a relaxing time to experience Italy through Italiannis.
