Okay let's face it, we all know the reason why we all want to go here: THE AMBIANCE! This place is perfect for everyone's instagram feed. I've been wanting to visit it ever since I heard about it. And since we had the courage to cross EDSA from South to North, here we are! 😊

Ambiance: flowers everywhere, even the chandeliers! Perfect! The wooden furnitures make the place even more amazing, since it cancels out the extravagance of the flowers - making a balance. I loooooooved the decorations. Just see the pictures for you to get that I am not exaggerating this. It was fun to take photos since almost everyone in there are doing the same thing. No need to be shy 😉

Service: like a typical cafe - you order the food and drinks and pay at the counter, they make it, but instead of calling you to pick up your orders, they serve it on your table. And they're pretty good, since I noticed that there were only two of them at the counter during that time (not sure if they also make the food because if they do, then woah!). It took around 15 to 20 minutes for our orders to arrive (maybe they do it deliberately? To give you time to go around and take pictures? Hehe!)

Pricing: Each meal costs less than P300. Their pastries are also cheaper by half the price offered by other cafes. The drinks cost pretty much the same. There's also no service charge on top of the bill.

Serving: serving size of the meals are enough given the pricing. The items we ordered were heavy enough to be called a decent meal.

Taste: so-so. I'll give my comments on a per item basis:

Their aglio olio was a bit bland. It lacked flavor. It wasn't really all that bad, but it wasn't good either.

The Chicken and Pork Adobo the opposite of the aglio olio. It was good but a bit salty, so make sure you eat it with as much rice as possible. Good thing the eggs that came with it did not have much salt. Matcha Latte P180[/caption]

I loved this. The only flaw was that I think it had a bit too much milk in it. Oh, and it comes with a small chocolate chip cookie (not sure if oatmeal cookie though). This was also good. Not too sweet, not too tough to chew.

Parking: convenient for those bringing a car, especially for those coming from afar like me. The restaurant is in a mall (sort of home depot mall. Look for the big ALL HOME sign) which is why parking is easy (P55 for the first 3 hours).

Overall, I loved the whole experience. I walked out of that cafe smiling, and my camera giving up some of its memory.

My score:

Pricing – 4/5

Service – 5/5

Ambiance – 5/5

Taste – 3/5
