How A True Gentleman Prepares for a Romantic Evening in Makati City

Are you a gentleman looking for a Makati accommodation, salon, restaurant, and bar for a special date you are planning? If you are indeed a man who conforms to a high standard of propriety, you should be able to organize a romantic evening for your girlfriend or wife.

Regardless if it's your anniversary, her birthday, Valentine's Day, or just feeling spontaneous after a long work week, never settle for a mediocre night out. Here is how a gentleman prepares and throws a magical and memorable date with his special woman.

1. Get a nice hotel room
Not just at any hotel but a room in Makati's Crown Regency Hotel along A. Arnaiz Avenue. Choose from the Standard, Superior, and Corner Suite, all of which are more than capable of providing a warm, peaceful, and safe haven for couples. Each is fitted with superb amenities such as cable TV, air-conditioning, full-size posturepedic beds, hot and cold shower, and in-room Internet connection.

2. Spend time for grooming
Martin Luther King, Jr. said in his iconic speech that a person should not be judged not by his appearance but by the content of his character. But how you present yourself also plays a large role if you want your woman to put you on a higher regard. So while she's napping or at the salon, check out Felipe & Sons located at LPL Mansion in San Agustin Street. Here, you can get a proper cut, shave, massage, and good ol' shoe shine care of master barbers. In addition, this establishment also doubles as a haberdashery where you can order custom-made shirts, dress trousers, suits, coats, blazers, and vests.

3. Pick a fancy restaurant
Stockton Place along Salcedo Street is one of the best new restaurants in the metro right now. It has a minimalist and cozy interior and serves an array of soups and salads as well as steaks, chicken, and scallops. While dining, make sure you follow proper etiquette: never place your cell phone on the table, don't snap your fingers to get the waiter's attention, and always stand when she gets up from her chair. Also, remember that a gentleman never splits the bill and always tips the waiter well.

For you after-dinner activities, skip the noisy clubs and pubs in Greenbelt or Glorietta. Instead, head back to Crown Regency Hotel in Makati, Philippines which has its own Tops Chill-Out Bar. This bar operates from 6 pm to 2 am, and serves beer and its own blend of cocktails. This Makati accommodation also has a spacious lobby lounge where you can relax before calling it a night.
