(This is an update of the Chateau Verde article originally published in September 25, 2006.)
Last Friday, December 18, my family went to see the U.P. Lantern Parade. I was a U.P. student for eight years (four years undergrad, four years in the College of Law) and I have seen as many lantern parades but it was the first time that I went to see the lantern parade with my family. Strange? Not really. Consider that the U.P. Lantern Parade is held on a weekday. In the past, the kids were at school and the hubby was at work. We were lucky this year — everyone was free. To avoid the inconvenience of traffic re-routing, I insisted that we had to be in U.P. by lunchtime. To start the lantern parade experience right, we had lunch at Chateau Verde.

Thanks for sharing, Sassy! Will definitely check this out.
What is the best way to get to UP Diliman from EDSA Makati?
You’re welcome, eric. Tip: the pasta is really, really good.
Chris, commuting? Take a jeepney from Quezon Avenue going to Philcoa. From there, take the jeepney going to UP campus. If you’re driving, turn right at East Avenue, enter the Elliptical Road then right to Commonwealth Avenue.
I hope I can visit this eating place. It’s very far from my are (Las Pinas).
Sulit yan despite the distance, trosp.
hi ms connie! where is this place specifically located in UP?
If you’re coming from Dilimall, turn left at the street right after the Infirmary.
Yes, their pasta is superb. Three times I have come back for repeats of that dish from their buffet table (for just P300++ lang during that time, 2006, which also included rib eye steak).
They also have a very fine brewed coffee for P40++ if my recollection is correct. (Anybody will ask me if it is bottomless? Duh…)
If I have some time again, resbakan ko ulit sila.
And I would be prepared for that. He he he he…
Hi Cris,
Here is their number so you could call them for directions- 927-3035
I keep numbers of my favorite restos handy in my cp and CHATEAU is one of them!
like you ms. connie, i was a UP student for 7.5 years (5 years undergrad and 2.5 years gradschool). magkatabi/magkalapit pa nga yun bldgs natin. haha…
i miss this place (along with mang jimmy’s, treehouse and chocolate kiss). i used to eat there when i was in gradschool. i love their pastas… i forgot the name of the one i usually eat. it’s like a rolled lasagna with tuna and capers… something caprese… tuna caprese?
Rolled lasagna? Not cannelloni? Actually, I haven’t tried their pasta dishes (patikim-tikim lang) — it’s my daughter who always order pasta at Chateau Verde.
I usually go to Chocolate Kiss whenever we get a chance to go to UP
I haven’t tried Chateau Verde but the cajun spaghetti loks so yummy.
Oh, it is. I’m allergic to shrimps and crab but I tried it anyway. Just a forkful though.
Thanks for this post. Hubby and I were wondering just last week if this place was still open. Glad it is; will bring the kids there soon!
Yep, still there and the food is still good. Have fun!
Finally got to visit Chateau Verde last Tuesday noon, pero kami lang ni hubby. Sayang, wala na pala silang buffet. But I still enjoyed the food.
Kami rin, we missed the buffet. I still remember the baked oysters… haaaayyy
I was able to try Chateau Verde a couple of years ago and just adored the ambiance especially during the early evenings when it would be starting to get dark and they would open those little lights.
They also use to offer a very affordable week-end buffet at a very reasonable price.
For those intersted to get more info here’s there number – 927-3035.
Yup, I do keep the numbers of my favorite restos in my cell phone and Chateau Verde in UP Diliman is really worth a visit every now and then.
our favorites are paella, corned beef and decadent chocolate cake. yummy!
