It’s Christmas already at Nuel Cafe!

nuel cafe

Ber months has come! Here in the Philippines, when September comes, that means Christmas has started. You can hear Christmas songs already. Yes, we, Filipinos, are excited like that when you say Christmas.

Just recently, we visited a restaurant in Mandaluyong. This is not your typical cafe or restaurant, because we felt like king and queen for a night inside at Nuel Cafe.

nuel cafe

Just wanted to inform you that this theme is not for good. This is just for Christmas season, but usually, it still extra because of the royal vibe ambiance of the restaurant.

The owner of this majestic restaurant is a lawyer. You will notice a “lawyer” sign before entering the restaurant.

Now, let start the tour with their beautiful lobby.

Would love to go back again and experience the usual theme here at Nuel Cafe. Would like to try also their other dishes. The tapa was so good. The meat was tender and flavorful. The pasta also is my favorite. Love also the idea that they are not using plastic straws. Yey! Again, they are accepting CASH only. If you are more than 4 pax, you need to book a reservation. Also, they are open on WEEKDAYS only.

Overall, we had fun here at Nuel Cafe. Affordable yet quality food plus good ambiance are what we are looking in a restaurant. You must go here now. Especially, now that Christmas is coming very soon.

Paluto and Gastroville by All Day Supermarket

paluto and gastroville by all day

Every 2 weeks, my family goes to Supermarket to buy all the things we need to stock for 2-3 weeks. After doing grocery, we’ll have lunch or dinner at our favorite restaurant. That’s our routine every weekends. It’s kinda hassle to bring our goodies inside the restaurant, it even took some space inside because of our grocery carts.

What if you don’t need to do this anymore? Like you can eat inside the Supermarket. YES, IT’S POSSIBLE! I’ll tell you where and how.

All Day Supermarket Libis

ALL DAY SUPERMARKET is not your ordinary supermarket. Why? It has “Paluto” inside and even a mini food park or also known as “Gastroville“. Here, you can get what you need to buy from fresh meats, fruits and vegetables, etc. Aside from that, you can now eat inside and even request your preferred dishes! HOW COOL IS THAT?

PALUTO

avocadoria ayala malls the 30th

Avocado lovers, unite! Finally tried the trending and viral desserts in the city. Have you tried Avocadoria? If you still haven’t, you can check our review to make your self crave for it. LOL.

Avocadoria is located at the lower ground floor of Ayala Malls the 30th. They just opened last August but the hype is just too real! When we went there, the line was crazy!

  • avocadoria ayala malls the 30th
  • avocadoria ayala malls the 30th

One thing we noticed was that this store is open for all ages. Imagine, you can see some oldies and babies trying out their desserts! One reason is that avocado is actually a healthy fruit. So it’s good for our health.

avocadoria ayala malls the 30th

We’re supposed to try all of their products but since the line was crazy that day (actually almost everyday), one of their best seller desserts, which is the Avocado Dream, was sold out! Huhu. But it’s okay, the remaining desserts were good! SO GOOD.

Super love this one! The sweetness is just right. The soft-serve ice cream is super good. The biscuits they used is not the ordinary biscuits we knew. You can taste that it is homemade. I can’t feel I’m cheating on my diet because hey, it’s avocado!

Avocado Shake (170 php)

Made with real avocado, pearls, topped with chia and flax seeds, almonds, and chopped with fresh fruit of your choice (chico, mango, jackfruit, guyabano, and avocado)

Compared to Avocado Lover, the first one we tried was much sweeter than this one. But their shake is refreshing enough so you’ll find yourself that you almost end up drinking it.

Avocado Ice Cream Cheesecake (550 php)

Served in a tin tub, it is consists of smooth and light cream cheese, creamy avocado, topped with white chocolate gourmet with chops of healthy nuts such as pistachios, almonds, and cashews

Definitely my favorite! Forget all that dream cakes, replace it with this one! Much healthier and much cheaper. I’ll highly recommend everyone to try this one. Everything is done perfectly.

They are also available via Zomato delivery and Food Panda. You can also pay via GrabPay.

If you’ll ask me if the hype is real, I’ll definitely answer YES 100%! Now I know why all of their branch have crazy long lines almost every day. Wondering why it cost quite expensive? Hey, avocado is a really expensive fruit. Plus, all of the fruits are coming from Davao so it’ll take much time to transfer all of these in Manila. But I’ll assure you that all of the fruits they use are fresh.

Not only they have the cutest place but they also have some good advocacy. One is they have reusable bottles that you can take home after drinking them. The other one is they are encouraging everyone to use reusable metal straws. Hope everyone will implement this too, soon.

By the way, this is their second branch in the Philippines. The first one is located in Davao.

If you want to try some new drinks such as fruit teas, then try this! I love their Monster Series especially the Starry Night as it changes its color when you pour a lemon drink in it. In their Milk Tea Series, you have to try their Cubi Special Milk Tea, it is a yogurt based so it is kinda new to our taste buds.

Mrs. V Restobar: Unlimited cocktails for only 350 php

mrs v restobar

Looking for a new hangout place in Makati? Well, I found a newly opened restobar in Amorsolo Street specifically inside Gervasia Condotel. Happy to introduce to all of you the Mrs. V Restobar.

mrs v restobar

Do you know that this elite and intimate restobar isn’t what you think it is? I know that upon seeing the place, the first thing you will say is, “I think it’s expensive.” Yup, because that’s also my thought upon going inside. The place is intimate with its space but looks classy with its design and interior.

Cheers?

Our top picks are Bagnet, Wagyu Salpicao, and Mrs. V Famous Tapa. All because of the same reason, the meat is so tender. Especially the Bagnet, crispy on the outside, almost melts in your mouth. So chewy! The food is reasonable for its price.

Also if you are looking for a place for corporate events or meetings, you can rent their place. Just inquire on their social media accounts for more details.
