BGC Food crawl stop 3: Brown Café

“What are the most picture pretty variants?” – me to the clerk Anchan Strawberry Latte with Rainbow bubble Photogenic indeed! A pink base from the strawberry milk and jam, blending to a blue hue from the butterfly pea tea = picture perfect drink. I liked that the strawberry flavor wasn’t that sweet compared to strawberry milk sold in tetra packs in the grocery. I’m not … Continue reading BGC Food crawl stop 3: Brown Café

Food: Hui Lau Shan – Mangoes and More

The Food: The drink, rather. Mango and Coconut juice with Aloe Jelly You could taste a hint of creaminess from the coconut and the aloe flavor form the green jelly slush at the bottom of the cup. Previously tried the one with crystal jelly. It was a less sweet option and the jelly was more firm.

Food: Illy Caffe – birthday on a discount coffee break

Coffee break on promo at Illy Cafe after the Italian lunch at La Piazza thanks to Zomato Gold. For drinks, you have the option to get 1+1 or 2+2, but the +1 should always be the same drink as the one you are paying. Unlike in food, you could order different items and just pay the one with higher price. Cappuccino Served hot on interestingly … Continue reading Food: Illy Caffe – birthday on a discount coffee break

Leyte 2019: [07] Origins Authentic Tea

Pei Pa Koa Milk Tea??? I just had to try that! Good timing, I was craving milk tea whilst having a mild sore throat. It cancels out right? Watching them prepare it, they actually poured the pei pa koa syrup from the bottle into the milktea cup. Legit. Sooo it tasted like..mild cherry? Is this what they mean when people say cherry is “lasang gamot” … Continue reading Leyte 2019: [07] Origins Authentic Tea

Leyte 2019: [05] Jose Karlo’s Cafe

One of the coffee shops with the best ambiance I’ve seen so far. Enjoy the homey and relaxed neighborhood vibe instead of the busy commercial energy from other more well known shops. I could imagine myself spending an afternoon here, finally making that novel or the script / show bible I’ve always intended to write. It’s filled with trinkets for display. You’ll find something interesting … Continue reading Leyte 2019: [05] Jose Karlo’s Cafe
