Makati in one sentence
Makati has a little bit of everything -- from weekend markets to interconnected malls to bar hopping nights.
🍳 Breakfast
Cafe Breton Armorica
@viajera
A classic breakfast/brunch (and even, dessert) spot in Makati and in Metro Manila as a whole! My personal favorite is their butter sugar crepe and galette breton (if you want something savory)

Ayala Triangle Gardens
@viajera
A great place to stroll around and relax as you're surrounded by nature. Also, every Christmas season, they set up a light show in the garden, so if you're in Manila during that time, it's something that you should definitely make time to see!
