Experience Spice Cafe's Grand Lunch Buffet at City Garden Grand Hotel

There's a new place where you can celebrate milestones, gather with friends and family to enjoy international cuisines and experience the newest hotel lunch buffet in town. 

Tucked inside the 7th Floor of the City Garden Grand Hotel in Makati City, is it's newly launched restaurant, Spice Café.  Spice Café boasts of a beautiful 180 degree view of Makati City.  It has comfortable seating areas, spaced far in between tables, so you can enjoy meaningful conversations and have a comfortable dining experience.

The beauty of bespoke: throw pillow covers and table linens using designer fabrics from Townes, Inc.

On weekends, I always find time to read my favorite interior design magazines and books.  It keeps me up to date with the latest trends in design and it inspires me to change the look of our home every once in a while (every four months to be exact, to keep it fresh). 

While reading Elle Decor, I've been seeing these beautiful designer fabrics and I wondered where I can find some for a home project that I was planning.  I've always known that Townes in Pasay Road, Makati City has good quality fabric selections, so I decided to drop by a few weeks ago to check if they had some designer fabrics in the store.
