After months of renovation, when the Del Monte Clubhouse finally reopened, I was very excited to taste once more my favorite foods.

The Del Monte ClubHouse or commonly known as the Del Monte Golf Club has been a popular restaurant for travelers, golfers, tourists, and all because of its cooling atmosphere and relaxing view while dining. Its delicious cuisine made everyone come back over and over.
And that I am one of those who was very thrilled to see a glimpse of the newly renovated five-star restaurant at the heart of San Miguel, Manolo Fortich, Bukidnon.
One fine weekend, I went to the restaurant during lunchtime. When I arrived at the place, the clouds were so puffy, the sky was so vibrant, the air was so fresh, and the atmosphere was truly very relaxing.
It seemed the weather was going with my delightful feelings as I entered a very beautiful place to dine. How I love to capture the breathtaking atmosphere and I was very happy to see flocks of birds going to and fro.
I noticed that many people were dining in, so I let them enjoy their meal so that when I will enter, it would not be crowded anymore.
Instead of getting in quickly, I enjoyed the vibrant atmosphere outside and capture every moment. In front of the Clubhouse was a huge golf ball with positive quotes.
Del Monte being known internationally as the main producer of tomatoes, pineapple, and many products had its name on the huge golf all that implies a better life with its quality products as engraved and painted on the huge ball fronting the restaurant.
Meanwhile, I entered the Clubhouse and was delighted to see a place full of aesthetics. This is the waiting area. And there were many chairs for any visitor who would come in to wait for the receptionists to accommodate them.
Since many people were dining in, the receptionists allowed me to stay there for a while, and they were the ones who looked for a comfortable table for me. So lucky I was because after five minutes, I entered the main site.
I took a quick photo of what were the things inside and here it is, an image of the crowd who was so thrilled for its reopening.
First, I have chosen this table, for the view of the greenery was overlooking. But then, I realized that it always feels so good to breathe fresh air with the sight of luscious greenery and see the golfers play.
So I quickly went outside and was lucky to find a dining table with no one dining. Afterward, one of the staff accommodated me and asked for my orders. Since it has been a while since I have not tasted all my favorite foods in this restaurant, I ordered more.
While I was waiting for my orders, I had a refreshing walk all around the restaurant. My experience was so mesmerizing as all I saw were colors in green.
I felt like I am walking in a green paradise where everything brings light to the heart. The tall verdant trees added so much attraction to the place.
I have seen golfers both young and old playing and I have seen how happy they were. I have also seen families playing golf together. And after, they were dining in beside my table.
It has a delicious plating for at first glance I have seen the raw tomatoes, cucumber, and lettuce outside the bun.
I wonder what was filled inside so I sliced it since it was so big. And then I found out that aside from the seasonal vegetables, the clubhouse burger was also filled with cheese, egg, and a meaty patty made of beef.
Even looking at the spaghetti, it looked so delicious, how much more when I tasted it.
I must say that this Spaghetti is so full of sauce, creams, and meat. It has a combination of toasted bread which made my dining experience delightful.
It was quite pricey but I never regret I ordered it.
This was so yummy, tender, and tasty. On the siding, there were roasted slices of potatoes, green beans, and carrots. And they were delicious too.
The T-bone Steak was worthy of its price. I was so happy to try it for the first time and I wish to order more on my next visit to this fantastic restaurant.
Afterward, the Blueberry Cheesecake was brought by the staff, and placed it on my table. While I was eating the steak, I had the feeling of excitement to taste my favorite dessert.
I so love this blueberry cheesecake for having the right taste, not so sweet, and not so sour. It is indeed a real blueberry cheesecake, unlike the ones once sold at other stores nearby.
All of the plates were good. I was very happy to have a sumptuous taste of comfort foods at the Del Monte Clubhouse. It was a good restaurant but the prices of some of the foods were expensive although the menu for snacks was so affordable.
As I went outside, I never let the day pass without taking a candid pose at the huge golf ball.
I so love the overall atmosphere. And I must say that it was a perfect day to dine at this restaurant when the weather was fair and the Sun was shining gloriously.
Perhaps everything about Del Monte Clubhouse made my day and I went home with big smiles and a happy heart.
