I pretty much had a jetsetter weekend. ;) <3 Together with friends, I spent Sunday in Tagaytay. We had lunch at Memory Lane despite poor menu reviews I read about the place. :P
Memory Lane is a 50s to 60s inspired restaurant, specialty gift shop, beauty salon, and massage parlor rolled into a country house situated in Magallanes Drive, Tagaytay City. It is a family business owned by the Magdangal's (read: Jolina Magdangal... Hey Babe! ;)).
Her parents and her sister seem hands-on in managing the business. Her sister was in the cashier and her parents were mingling with guests, acquaintances, and family friends when we arrived.
Initial reaction: It's very country!
Hello bicycling froggy!
Just really intimate inside.
Old movie posters hanging on one wall...
We enjoyed the food!! Old blog posts about Memory Lane's food are mostly negative reviews. I guess they already made improvisations on their cooking. :) Jolina's dad even came over to check on us... Despite also some unwelcoming-owners-reviews, ours was different too... 'Daddy Jun' was nice enough to initiate a chat. :)
Memory Lane is really a nice place to hang-out and take photos of :)

Anton of Our Awesome Planet said that cooking food in this visually appealing / seemingly nice old school idea might be the culprit of cold food that was served to them. I guess they're not using it anymore, no? ;)

They also have a function hall/pavillion behind the main place to accommodate big groups/parties/events...
