Reaching Tagaytay makes one hungry. Scaling the crest of the welcome rotunda throbs with gurgling inside the stomach while searching the bevy of roadside signs heralding eatery specials. This is cattle country being right next to the grazing lands of Batangas province where Australian longhorns are ranged to be fattened for the urban market direct from the livestock long hulls that dock at the Batangas City International Port. Batangas beef may be a trifle sinewy than Angus or USDA but the local grass flavors it with a taste that jumps your tongue with a distinct settling. More like the scent of a native woman, salt from the earth so subtle to be coy while shyly and slyly hinting whiffs of sugary nectar from midnight blossoms.

Away with the poetry and serve the beefsteak, hungry mouths snarl with bared incisors. Fork and knife akimbo over rattling plates, all the driving with cramping gets a payback with greasy, aromatic, glistening, marbled, juicy, moist, heaping, man sized, and in your face chunk of T-bone topped by curlers of onions pan fired in quick searing flames that vaporize the sparse sprinkling of soy sauce. You get so wild to grab with your hands and tear with your teeth. Growling and swigging beer from the bottle, you sit the sultry waitress on your lap to feel the heat from your bursting insides. Then you remember you can’t get it up anymore. But now’s not the time to fish for the ready Viagra in your pocket that you hide from the Missus who scowls over your scandalous antics.
For a more civilized experience, there is fine dining at Antonio’s which culinary creations entail ingenious use of the widest selection of fresh vegetables that grow in luxuriant bounty in and around its domain. Direct from the source in the skimpiest time rings true as the salads barely shed rigor mortis of the flora before they are tossed with epicurean flavorings topped by the virginal full bodied olive oil, balsamic vinegar, magical herbs, and top secret tightly guarded elixirs. I wouldn’t know really because I’ve never been there. I just imagined that’s how it would be judging from the lavish accolades paid it by very objective and impartial restaurant guides, reviewers, and critics, who get freebies.

Taal Vista Lodge is historically the place to go where even your grandmothers frolicked as nymphets spoiling to charm the boys. The view deck is so beguiling and spacious so much so you feel like an airplane rolling to the abyss at the end to take off with rolls and spins to climb above G forces with the spitfire of Tom Cruise in Top Gun, then dive bomb towards the volcano down below in a shuddering flyby. “Rat tat tat tat tat,” I spewed imaginary machine gun bullets at my cousin who dodged the fusillade and rolled on the carpet of manicured Bermuda grass. Some pubescent Assumption Convent High School girls I gave a dose of my James Dean impersonation back then in the lobby, giggled to catch me en flagrante still embroiled like a boy. Those were the days in Tagaytay City, to say it again.

Modern age Tagaytay City is more vibrant and equipped to take on a new role as the one hour refuge or sojourn from the vicissitudes of the rat race in Manila. It’s a well placed pit stop and jump off point to the resplendent beaches in the coastal lowlands surrounding its high vantage point. Down south, there’s the magnificent Batangas coast while behind it and further westward, the Cavite bay flows dramatically to meet head on and merge with the shimmering stretch of the basin of Southeast Asia, the South China Sea. Resort development is at its peak with the Tagaytay cliffs as the focal point, the spoke in the wheel, and crown jewel. The recluse for rest with lazy sleep is best typified by the cuddlesome greenery of Tagaytay’s primeval woods and landscapes after a heat seeking uninhibited immersion in briny ocean waters lapping fine grain sand beaches.
Incognito, discreet, secret hideaway, to be had within the eight hour work day schedule not far from the business center affording the furtive chance to be back at the office at the close of the day is every thrill seeker’s wet dream come true. Just make sure the car windows are heavily tinted and file away that sales call trip ticket before you pick up the tryst partner quickly by the 7-11 and you are roaring off to seventh heaven in Tagaytay City. She’s turned on by the wispy fascinating scenery and clings to you with a tenderness waiting to escalate to a clawing and scratching frenzy especially if you’ve not solved that infestation of mites in your pubic hair. But seriously, forget those trivial irritants and love with nobility in Tagaytay City which is as close as geography could come to ideals of the heart true to such a mythical mystical nirvana.
