by The Click List

 

Every Sunday, two neighboring restaurants by the Raintree group in Makati give delicious reasons to wake up early for a leisurely brunch -- think unlimited fills and returns, with live jazz music.

Located at the ground level of Ayala Museum Complex and just a stroll away the Greenbelt area, Museum Café (or 'M Café' called by its long time patrons) is a restaurant and bar concept that's been around for years, and held its 11th anniversary party last June with two things they've been known for ever since: good company, and great live music. It gave some of its space in the recent years for next-door neighbor, Kabila Filipino Bistro, highlighting creative Filipino cuisine to complement M Café's selection of modern Asian cuisine and international fare.
