Lakeview Le Jardin"

"Lakeview Le Jardin" When a storm passes by and shatters almost everything, it is easy to dismiss beauty and desire to enjoy the simplicity of life. When we were driving along Cebu City’s Trancentral Highway, a hopeful surprise greeted us in the form of this warm and cozy cafe in the mountains. Its wide mountain view that reaches Malubog Lake is like a yearning spirit of better days to come.  The storm winds were strong but it spared the garden which is as colorful as our hope for better tomorrow. This is not an escape from the city and the ravages of the typhoon as the nearby mountain trees are still devoid of foliage. However, it does present us as a place to be thankful for still standing and striving. You’ll be grateful for the warmth of their coffee and delectable food.  Visit Lakeview Le Jardin with your loved ones and relish a wonderful day. It is a place of comfort food and hopeful views, a pleasant cafe for you and the people that matters most. ...
