Real coffee in the province? Such a godsend! Plus, their espresso beans come from the famed Benguet region. Most shops will opt for 100% arabica species, but here they use a blend of 60% robusta kalinga and only 40% arabica, that way you can enjoy a sweet, smooth blend but still not discount for strength. I've been dying for a latte; yes I'm guilty! Give me something frothy, and that's capable of imbuing some level of comfort in me! For P120, I had a fresh cup for there. The morning times are "cooler", but the shop is open and definitely brings in that hot air. Nothing can stand in between me and my desire for a hot cup of coffee though! Amazed at this latte with its robust waves of acidity, a strength of character that one finds welcoming on a pleasant, sunny morning.
It's interesting to note the presence of frappes, teas, smoothies and juices on their menu in addition to their coffee. They even seem to periodically have kombucha although that was blocked out on my visit. For food, it seemed to be of a typical European fare with sandwiches and pastries such as croissants. I believe the back area serves as a popular bar spot which I hear is popping at night. read more
