Two New Authentic European Dining Destinations Now Open at Festive Walk Iloilo

Iloilo City welcomes a taste of Europe as two new restaurants—Carpaccio by Chef Antonio Consoli and El Rincón de los Sabores—open their doors at the Festive Walk Parade, bringing with them stories, flavors, and culinary traditions from Italy and Spain.


Carpaccio by Chef Antonio Consoli


At Carpaccio, every dish tells the story of Italy. Chef Antonio Consoli, known for his refined take on traditional Italian fare, transforms simple, raw ingredients into elevated experiences. 


From Antipasti to Dolci, each plate is crafted with precision and passion. Some of the must-trys include the signature Spaghetti All’Aragosta, Caviale, and the Wagyu Ribeye. Carpaccio invites diners to slow down, savor, and celebrate the art of Italian cooking.

 

El Rincón de los Sabores


Just a few steps away, diners will find a cozy Spanish escape at El Rincón de los Sabores. This charming spot is helmed by Chef Juan Carlos, an 80-year-old Spaniard who brought his family’s culinary heritage from Madrid to Iloilo. 


The space is more than a restaurant—it’s a place to shar stories, culture, and connection. Order the Montaraz Jamón Ibérico de Bellota, prized for its rich, nutty flavor and silky texture, sliced thin and served with purpose. 

Both concepts are now open at the Ground Floor of Festive Walk Parade from 10am to 10pm, offering Ilonggos the opportunity to experience European dining that’s both authentic and heartfelt—without leaving the city.

Connie Carillo Diversified Farm in Bingawan: Helping Sustaining a Healthy Community Through Farm Schools

The area around the town of Bingawan, the edge of the central portion of the province is where it ends and the town of Tapaz, Capiz province begins and is very much another unsung corner of Iloilo with warm, friendly, welcoming people. Bingawan has some rich farming land and farming is at the heart of its village life. The landscapes are gorgeous here; with gentle pastures, to the high mountains. The area offers some beautiful hikes and bike trails across its lovely rolling meadows, woodland and a few working farms.

St. Joseph Chapel at Festive Walk Iloilo's The Deck

While most malls around the country host Sunday masses in some obscure hallway filled with plastic chairs with a makeshift altar, some malls have built niches or transformed unused spaces into places of worship. And Ilonggos should be proud that one of the newest malls in Iloilo City has actually a chapel located in a prime spot and one that boasts both beauty and serenity.  The St. Joseph Chapel at Festive Walk Iloilo is located in one of its al fresco areas known as The Deck located  at the 3rd level. While this open air area also has a mini plaza and dog park (and soon - cafes and restaurants) it is the chapel that highlights this al fresco part of the mall. Eucharistic mass services are held every Sunday at 11am while first Friday masses at 5pm.  It is open to the public everyday for personal moments of silence and solitude. The Deck and everything in it is open from 10am to 10pm with the entrance located betwee...
