But when Congressional Avenue Extension which is the new road between Visayas and Luzon Avenue opened, more and more people are discovering this area. Thus, Congressional Avenue Extension is slowly becoming a food hub.

Anyway, this building is new and it features various restaurants such as:
The New Peach Blossoms serves sumptuous Chinese dishes at affordable prices in a bright and homey atmosphere.
My fave: Pipino Shake, Beef with Button Mushrooms, Sweet and Sour Fish Fillet- Agape - I haven't fully dined at Agape Manila ( Watch out for my review! 😉 ) but I always buy bread and pastries there because they are to die for! Agape offers authentic and sumptuous pastries as well as luscious French fusion food.
