Today, I want to share our great experience at Fat Chef Restaurant. My husband celebrated his birthday there, and it was such a memorable afternoon! They have two branches in Cagayan de Oro City: one in G/L, North Wing, SM Uptown, and another on Antonio Luna Street in Downtown CDO.
Parking Lot
We picked the Uptown branch because it was easy to park at the SM North Wing parking area.
Friendly and Warm Service
The staff at Fat Chef Restaurant were very friendly and welcoming. From the moment we arrived, they made us feel at home. The best part of the that afternoon was when they surprised my husband by singing “Happy Birthday” to him. We didn’t expect it, and even the kids were surprised and super happy. It was such a thoughtful gesture!
