It’s got brunch, heavy meals, and even cocktails!
Chickahan and catching up with your fellow millenial titas (or millenial titas at heart) may not be limited to certain times of the day. But, we bet, it’s limited by certain places such as Makati and BGC; two cities littered with cafes and restaurants that serve up brunch, drinks, and looks for that post-chickahan group picture.

And though we may agree that these places are the quintessential tita spots, if you decide that you want someplace new or want to skip the traffic down south, we suggest you head to the north instead. More specifically, may we suggest that you try out BOA Kitchen and Socials – “the chickahan place for the millenial tita”.
Book a table and get up to ₱300 off your bill!
More than just a Tomas Morato bar, BOA Kitchen and Socials is a restaurant with an ever-changing concept that performs intra-day transformations that’ll give customers the experience of being in three restaurants without having to leave.
Fun fact: When asked about the inspirations behind BOA, the owner said that he was inspired by the boa and hat drawing from the Little Prince - the part where the kid sees a boa constrictor in his drawing and the adults see a hat - and the bakunawa from Philippine Mythology.
If you decide to come in the morning or the afternoon, you’ll be greeted with bright interiors and colorful walls that’ll give your photos a sense of liveliness to match your youthful energy.
Tip: To see something cool in the photo below, tilt your head to the left and find the words "Always Change". These two words are related to their motto: "Things Will Never Be the Same."
Come in or stay in the wee hours of the morning and be amazed at the sudden transformation of this restaurant from a brunch spot to a socials area where you can talk, drink and dine in a buzzing environment complete with bright neon lights and vivacious music.
Fun fact: If you plan to have events here, their place is customizable. You can go from having Toy Story themed baby showers to Game of Thrones-inspired bachelorette party.
If you’re already impressed, we suggest that you hold your breath ’cause BOA’s got more up their sleeves.
Not only do their interiors shed like snakeskin when the moon comes out but their menu also transforms alongside their interiors.
Did you know? All of their dishes are prepared by Chef Julius Necor, a chef who worked for notable restaurants such as VASK, Galerie by Chele and BCN by Rambla.
If you’re planning to have brunch with your fellow titas, we suggest that you go to the restaurant from 9 AM to 6 PM. They serve up Australian brunch complete with your favorite easy comfort foods such as waffles, toasts, sandwiches, salads, wraps, pastas, rice bowls, and a dessert with familiar flavors.
Fun fact: If you want some brunch cocktails, the bar is open.
