Hidden atop the old La Azotea Building on Session Road, Oh My Gulay is not your typical restaurant. Owned by National Artist Kidlat Tahimik (Eric de Guia), it merges art, nature, and vegetarian cuisine into a unified experience.

Climbing five flights of concrete and wooden stairs is almost part of the adventure—there’s no elevator—so by the time you reach the fifth floor, entering the restaurant feels like stepping into another world.

Once inside, you’re surrounded by greenery, murals, driftwood sculptures, and indigenous artworks. A koi pond with a wooden bridge spans the center, and long-lost artifacts hang on rustic walls. The space is divided into unique zones—seating near the art gallery, a mock ship centerpiece, mezzanine dining, and even treehouse-inspired tables by the windows overlooking downtown Baguio.

The entire floor feels like a living art installation: mismatched chairs, communal tables, garden nooks, and a performance stage that occasionally hosts local artists or musicians.

Oh My Gulay’s dishes are vegetarian and inventive. The playful names—Anak ng Putanesca, Heneral Luna’s Punyetang Shitake, Pancit Gulay ni Pepe, Lapu‑Lapu Lumpia—make the menu fun to explore. Most entrees range from ₱120–₱175 and are generous—meant for sharing or a hearty solo meal.
