SÄNTIS Delicatessen Silang

Santi's is one of my favorite stores. I got to know about them when I worked for a company that operates a restaurant and their European delis come from this shop. We stopped by in one of our road trips to buy lyoner and rye bread for our grazing platter (which we have been fond of making as of late). I like how this place reminds me of the object-finding game that usually features a store like this. I feel grand shopping in here. The items are not cheap, as expected, but I like the experience of buying things you won't find in a regular grocery store. You can even have lunch, drink wine or have coffee in their in-store cafe/bar. We ordered hot coffee as we needed caffeine fix. Fancy to discover that you can even drink wine here. Thinking about trying it some time. I like how their staff were also super nice and helpful. I wanted to have bread dipped in olive oil but they didn't have that listed on their menu in particular. It can only be served together with a meal but, as an alternative, they offered us to buy the bread, have their kitchen slice it for us and serve them on a plate. So kind of them to even heat the bread! We're definitely going back to have lunch here... soon!

Nice place to buy the things needed you can't find from other grocery store

They only allow 10pax inside as a safety precaution to all so be early if you need to get in and out. The selection is quite good but since everybody is in a buying frenzy in the holidays, getting your usuals might be a challenge.

Pricey but good quality meats and cheese. Many ingredients that are not available in markets

Steaks, sausages and breads are the items I've always buy in this Santi's branch. Lots of varieties of wines and cheeses are also available.
