Citibank Tower Canteen

Before we get caught in any misunderstanding, this is about the canteen located at the 8th floor of the Citibank Tower in Makati, and not about the bank.  Anyone who has a chance to make it to this canteen can get their tummy full at a range of P50 - P150 per head.  The food is pretty good, and they have a wide variety of dishes to choose from.  In the nineties, Kong Kong used to hold office in this building at the top office floor, right below the Top of the Citi restaurant.

I understand the place is open Mondays to Saturdays, for breakfast, lunch and merienda and they close at around 7pm.  Originally, the canteen was structured as a membership club open to employees of building tenants, but I think that due to the  high turnover of tenants, they have relaxed their rules to allow visitors to dine in.  The canteen is operated by Cater Pro.

The canteen has 3 main counters, the first shown above serves the executive combo meals (P100 to P150 range) which normally includes a viand, a vegetable dish and dessert.  The second counter is a specialty counter serving pasta and mongolian BBQ, and the third has the regular offerings carinderia turo-turo style (P50 - P100 meal range).  I frequent this canteen whenever I am around the area--fast, hot and tasty meals in a jiffy!
