it's got to be sunset guys weather check welcome to the vlog look at this beautiful beautiful day metro manila the time is just gone at 5 00 pm and we are on a sunset mission let's go but first let's look at lucy's sunset outfit this is my sunset outfit guys 150 peso green hill stress oh my word look at those legs what and the bag mike and nelly got me for my birthday that is stunning guys this is my plane t-shirt from uniqlo get your basics don't don't don't worry we're sorted okay are you ready yeah we're showing you guys something very very cool tonight we've never been there we're heading there now let's go we head for the sky it's all right our wings wouldn't fly it's all right if we are crashing down again pieces of love it's all right it's all right again so we're actually headed to the grand hyatt hotel and we're checking out their rooftop bar because we haven't been there and a lot of you guys have recommended that we go there because you know we like a rooftop bar you know like a view you know like a sunset and then it's called the peak and i think they only open at 5pm so it's quarter past five now we're headed there it's a very clear day today so we're hoping for a very nice sunset we know it's a very fancy hotel and i think the view is i think it's really high up um so we're pretty excited for this but yeah let's head inside the hotel now always one thing i love actually like malls and hotels and stuff always have these guards who check your car and like they'll if we watch him evening hi if we watch him he'll actually open the trunk yeah so you just check the trunk and then they have a mirror that goes around the whole car like that quite like i think it gives a good level of security okay whoa look at that so grand isn't it and there's even a porsche 911 parked outside wow i think jose fits in you know i think jose fits in do you know i always do this oh no i've parked way too far away oh this is so unsatisfying we still haven't got it oh that's so hard to take out what oh the car's not even all right on we go [Music] okay there might be a wedding at the peak the guard just told us she was like are you going to the wedding and we're like um what wedding we could try and get into the wedding i don't know [Music] okay change of plan yeah um the there turns out there was a wedding on in that last place unfortunately so we're trying to instead go to the raffles rooftop bar because we feel like we still want to see a rooftop tonight and still want to enjoy the sunset so let's see if it's open and if we can get a table outside we're not we're in another elevator and they're saying that the rooftop is full because we don't have a reservation yeah awful but there is a restaurant here so we maybe could get a small dinner yeah even though lucy just made us gyozas so we're not that hungry but look at this above your head i know it's very grand in here i have to apologize for this vlog because it hasn't gone but this is real life this is what happens when you do a daily vlog of your life see what happens let's see if we can get there it's on the ninth floor but we'll see fingers crossed maybe they can squeeze this it's a very small table we're not we're not let's ask politely you never know usually in the philippines there's always a way yeah let's see let's see [Music] [Music] wow [Music] maybe over here so we can see it yeah how nice is this yeah and we've got it to ourselves romantic thank you i'm so smart it's like the smallest play i've ever seen wait why is it all right it's not all about size so that was really badly focused of me sorry about the camera work guys don't apologize so guys we made it to this restaurant unexpectedly we thought we were just going to go to the bar for a drink but turns out we got this luxurious restaurant to ourselves and i would argue an even better view of sunset actually than we may have potentially got on the roof yeah it's stunning here um so we're looking at the menu we're like okay it's kind of around dinner time we weren't expecting to have dinner out tonight and looking at the menu it's a little bit pricey so it looks like we're going to be spending some money tonight but you know support your places that you like going to we love coming here we love the rooftop bar here so of course we want to support the economy i'm tempted by some pasta they've got a braised beef cheek tortellini spinach and coriander emulsion now i thought emulsion was paint turns out they you can use it for pasta sauce as well george we'd like some caviar 7 280 yeah get two of those okay and then actually it's not too bad there's the pastas are around a thousand and we've got a few different dishes sort of between a thousand empty foods thanks who are you sending that to i sent it in the family group so this is the actual restaurant it's actually so beautiful inside really modern really like clean and i really like the design in here they've got the dried flowers on the tables and the candlesticks and it's just huge floor-to-ceiling windows i'm doing a room tour of the restaurant and it goes around here as well [Applause] [Music] wanted to please [Music] guys look at that sky behind me man that's beautiful that's stunning lucy's actually lighting me up right now because that's annoying just go back a little bit a little bit softer that's nice um it's got quite dark and we've got a candle at dinner they brought over some compliment i think complimentary breads were like some baguettes here and stuff and then they brought over some butter and olive oil so fairly luxurious experience here so far we weren't expecting to eat at this restaurant we've ordered some tortellini beef tenderloin beef cheek tenderloin tortellini which has been cooked right over there there's a chef i'll show you him in a second i've got chef hat on and everything apron all the gear that chef would need and lucy went for the mushroom risotto so we'll give you a little juicy log review little juicy vlog taste test but i think it's good that lucy dressed this way tonight because i think you fit in with this place yeah i think i've balanced us out tonight what do you mean well you're wearing like a t-shirt and trainers so the fact that i've dressed up it's okay all right okay we're both dressed like you then yeah here's the chef the kitchen is right here oh yeah so there's the chef i was talking about yeah that's quite cool it's like a i don't know what it is why it's this color what do you think it is like dry oh yeah maybe it's like rye but it's all fresh and very warm as well thank you would you like me to bring a hat plate part of our cartridge yeah please yeah that would be nice [Music] nice thank you so much thank you this is the uh oh wow look at these plates this is the rossoso i love the bowls very nice cool they're warm and then this is a tortellini with beef cheek inside so smaller portions but i think somewhere that's a bit fancier and a bit higher end you often get a smaller portion um but it looks delicious thank you for blinding me at the end of that clip george sorry yeah i probably needed the light a little bit earlier but the food guys looks great it looks pretty good you know check this out i've never had this homemade pasta towards leaning with beef i'm trying to show you with the light and you can see the beef chief tenderloin inside the homemade pasta [Music] oh that's good so yeah it's small portions here but the taste makes up for it wow so this risotto has some mushrooms it has a lot of parmesan cheese which i love it's got some pine nuts and some spinach and it's really tasty it's got this like museum it's sauce in it it's really garlicky it kind of um fills your whole mouth when you eat it so this is unintentionally turned into a bit of a food vlog today hasn't it yeah but it's a bit spontaneous we will try and go to the peak soon again we will but not when there's a wedding all we need to just get invited to a wedding there and thanks to the hotel for letting us park jose right here perfect perfect parking spot how convenient is that i think there's underground parking maybe it's quieter exactly hi thank you thank you very good service here [Music] you
