The party broke up at around 4.00 p.m. as dark clouds hovered at the end of an otherwise hot and humid day. It would have been difficult transporting the food and water containers up the stone steps and into the car had we not started packing up before the rains fell. We made it just in time.

I love Vieux Chalet. It holds fond memories. Butch brought me here when I was like 7 months pregnant with Lauren. We even slept overnight. It was the very first time I ate pasta with basil. One of my most memorable dates except I was too pregnant . I want to go back there and bring the girls this time.

Nice to know about this place. Thanks, Sassy.
I think my husband would love Vieux Chalet. How long has the Swiss expat (the owner) lived in RP, if I may ask?

Thank you for featuring Vieux Chalet. We were there this afternoon and was amazed by the wonderful ambiance and great food this place has to offer. I live in Antipolo as well and am proud to have such a place where my best friends and I can spend the whole day and be delighted with conversations and great food. Rico is also the best! We will definitely come back soon. By the way, we got lost on the way there but took a really really narrow road on the opposite fork and found that road quite mystical and interesting. Thanks again.

Oh, that is so great! Yes, Rico is the most maasikaso person in the world.
We’re going there next week too. Glad you liked it there. My family loves Vieux Chalet.
