Now that some pandemic dining restrictions have been lifted, we can dine outdoors, especially around nature and fresh open air.
Sirmata Farm & Nature Park, located in Nueva Ecija, recently opened an al-fresco dining restaurant called Kàyo where you can wine and dine while enjoying the sight of the hills, trees, and the river.

Walking inside, you’ll immediately see a path going towards the restaurant surrounded by trees and grass while passing by some lodge accommodations.

One of the activities that you can do in the park is walk across a small hanging bridge built across some of the trees.

The park also has a wooden bridge built by a huge tree where you can pose and take pictures.

If you’re an adventurist, go ahead and take a shot at the spider web, where you can sit or stand in the middle and take pictures. Bear in mind that this web is suspended 10 feet in the air overlooking the river, so climb carefully or skip this if you have a fear of heights.

The restaurant has an al-fresco open-air area, providing a view of the trees and the river. Alternatively, you can dine in the floor-to-ceiling glass house and still get to enjoy the scenery.

For those who enjoy dining al-fresco with a view closer to nature, go for the part of the restaurant that overlooks the river.

Decorative lights keep the restaurant well-lit even at night. What’s more, you can still snap shots and enjoy the view outside.
Do make a reservation in advance as walk-ins are strictly prohibited.
