For its second leg, the Avida Food Hunt brings its unique food challenge to the streets of Taft Avenue in Pasay, the site of Avida Towers Prime Taft. Located just minutes from premier schools in Manila such as De La Salle University, Arellano University, Philippine Women’s University, De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde, San Isidro Catholic School and St. Scholastica’s College, Avida Towers Prime Taft also has the advantage of being the condominium development in the area nearest to three major cities, Taft Avenue, Makati’s central business district and the top commercial centers in Pasay.
The first stop is at Black and White Cafeteria located just right beside Avida Towers Prime Taft. This spacious and inviting restaurant, with its signature black and white floors, serves yummy and budget friendly meals that families and students will surely love. Black and White’s famous Burger & Bacon Extra Special is a must-try along with a refreshing glass of their special red iced tea.
The next destination is one of the longest-running Japanese restaurants in the Buendia-Pasay area, Nemoto Japanese Restaurant. The restaurant offers authentic Japanese dishes from freshly sourced ingredients. Nemoto’s regular customers favor their Special Mix Maki. Their variety of must-try fares are the maguro (tuna) sashimi, ebi (prawn) and kisu (fish) tempura, and yasai itame (stir fry vegetables).
