Dessert is a course that typically comes at the end of a meal, usually consisting of sweet food. It could be a cake, an ice cream, a fruit salad, etc.
Box of 3, 109 pesos
Chewy Junior is not your typical cream puff. One can easily tell just by looking at it. Chewy Junior cream puffs are crisp on the outside. However, once your teeth goes deeper on it, you’ll notice that it’s soft and chewy. Continue reading →
Caffe Ti Amo is the newest gelateria (gelato + cafeteria) that arrived here in the Philippines. The brand came from Korea and is partly owned by Jollibee Foods Corp. We were recently invited to grace its opening a few weeks ago. Their very first store is at the ground floor of SM Annex and will soon be opening at the Fort.

Just like wines, chocolates also have a hierarchy and variety of types which you may distinguish from another. There are Belgian, Spanish, Italian, American and many more. Many people say that Swiss Chocolates are the “highest” among all the others in the world. If you’re going to ask my opinion, I like Swiss chocolates more than Belgian chocolates. You may say otherwise, but for me it’s really just a matter of taste. Continue reading →
Polvoron is a Filipino dessert that is made up of toasted flour, powdered milk, sugar and melted butter. I like polvoron that is compact and that is not too sweet.
I love the polvoron from HOP. My favorite polvoron variant from HOP is the pinipig. Their other polvoron variants are: Classic, Pili, Cashew and Cookies and Cream. Even though the other variants are good, pinipig has been my all-time favorite.
A box (18 pieces) of each polvoron variant costs 100 pesos while a box of assorted polvoron (20 pieces) is being sold at 108 pesos. If you’re having a hard time choosing which polvoron variant you would try, I suggest that you get the assorted so that you could also try the other variants.
While walking in Greenbelt 1, I came across my St. Scho friend, Isa, and recommended me to try Qoola since she knows that I blog about food. I had a taste of her Green Tea yogurt ice cream from Qoola so I rushed my way to taste this newest yogurt ice cream sensation. Continue reading →
La Mia Tazza Coffee was a coffee shop that Karla and I frequented while we were in Legazpi, Albay. This is somewhat their Starbucks there but the good thing is that the owner is a home grown Bicolano. They have 2 branches in Legazpi. One is at the Old District Albay and at the Embarcadero. We went to the Embarcadero branch because that’s where we go have our night cap. Continue reading →
We were heading towards Landmark to buy some stuff when we suddenly saw that Gelatissimo in Greenbelt 5 has finally opened. The first time we tried this was in Cebu and the staff there told us that they will be opening a branch in Makati scheduled on December. Now, the long wait is over, it has finally arrived Metro Manila!
Just talked to the owners of the Makati branch and they said that they have just opened a few hours and people were already interested about this new gelato in Manila. Everything looks and tastes the same except that their gelatos are much expensive here than in Cebu.
Gelatissimo is at the 2nd level of Greenbelt 5. It’s near the walkway going to Landmark. You can’t miss it because it’s just beside the Greenbelt 5 entrance from the walkway.

Are you an ice cream lover? Then try the ice cream buffet at the Ice Cream Bar where you can eat all the ice cream that you want! See poster above for the details.
As I was walking by Swanston Street in Melbourne, I saw a Krispy Kreme kiosk. I didn’t hesitate to buy their original glazed donut because I want to know if there is a difference from the original glazed donuts here in Manila. Well, well, well, to my surprise, it tasted much better! It’s not that sweet compared to the ones we have here. I also noticed that they also have other flavors that are not available here in Manila such as Strawberry Cheesecake, Lime Splice and Crushed Pineapple.
Anyway, 1 original glazed donut costs AUD $2.30 (Php 98 +). For them this is already very cheap!
or just search if you’re looking for something
