I was so happy to hear that my very entrepreneurial cousin, Marga and her husband Eugene have a new business venture again – After Office Warehouse, Dwell and ID Center.

We were very lucky to be one of the first to try BASIL which is in White Plains right beside the White Plains Subdivision sign the first lot to your left. It used to be a landscaping store which they turned into a restaurant. They opened two days ago and are still on dry run but be the first to try it 🙂

Congratulations Eugene and Margs! We will always support you!! And also to their partners Bummer and Maya ( Agustines ) Santiago!

Heart2Heart loves the place!!! I love the plants, the garden, the vases surrounding the restaurant. Thanks to Bummer and Eugene who are responsible for the interiors

To your right


Oh my gosh! I could not believe it when I saw this plant in the center of the restaurant! It was a gigantic version of one of my favorite plants! It is so so beautiful and rare!!! I wanted to buy it but Bummer doesn’t want to sell it 🙂 I heard that Bummer is into plants and likes decorating places. He is only selling the vase. The vases are all for sale and are all antiques from 200 years ago!!

I just love this plant, i think I took it from every angle and it kept distracting me while i was there 🙂

The dining area




Beautiful landscaping as you look outside the window




The window looking out at the outdoor garden which also has seating for dining




More vases for sale outside
