After graduation, he thought of investing for the betterment of the place and eventually developed it into a restaurant. He is also fond of organic farming, the herbs that they are using for their dishes are found within their backyard. As for the meat and seafood ingredients, they purposely restrict the number of inventory to guarantee the quality of every dish. Customers may call ahead of time to secure a specific meal. Menu Chef Abe is very fond of Filipino cuisine and a fan of the dishes cooked by his mother and grandmother thus giving him inspiration for the menu plus some twist to entice your palate.
Bambu Cafe Bar and Events also gives opportunities to local talents as they are open for local bands to perform on the restaurant and local entrepreneurs as they have a corner for local products here in Batangas.

Worshops and Retreat:

At Sefriya, we believe that space is essential to the creative process. That’s why we’ve created a sanctuary where you’re free to pause, breathe, and simply be. A sacred space where stillness is encouraged, and rushing feels out of place.
Community Advocacy
Sefriya draws inspiration from the quiet wisdom of nature—how the sun, the river, and the flowers exist not for themselves, but to give and sustain life around them. We believe that true beauty mirrors this pattern of generosity, which is why Sefriya is more than just a hotel and farm in Alitagtag—it is a social enterprise rooted in service. Our mission is to create a space that nurtures not only rest and reflection but also opportunity and upliftment for the local community.
In response to the challenges brought by the pandemic, Sefriya became a place of hope, employing locals based on heart and potential, not just credentials. Thirty percent of our profits are reinvested in community development projects, including our flagship Sefriya Scholarship Program, which supports students with both promise and purpose. Every stay at Sefriya helps fuel dreams, build futures, and create a deeper kind of restoration—one that extends far beyond the self.
