KatsuCafe

So, hello there! :) This week, I and my friends (Donut Club) decided to eat at a cafe near our school. It's not the ordinary cafe we all know. It's a Japanese cafe! :) Welcome to KatsuCafe!

The name says it all. The cafe is all about Katsudons! :) Tonkatsu, Tori katsu, etc. They also sell Gyoza, Kani Salad, Kirin beer, etc. As the first-timers ourselves, we ordered the Katsuretsu set :) The katsu set contains miso soup, unlimited Japanese rice, your own creation of Tonkatsu sauce and of course the tonkatsu/tori katsu/ebi furai :) Dozo.

Here is the sauce. First, they will give you this sesame seeds in a bowl. The sauce is already on the table ( the  second picture) there's also chili powder and chili sauce at the side if you prefer your sauce HOT. =)) Just add the sauce to the bowl of sesame seeds then mix! Make sure to grind those sesame seeds for your sauce to be yummier!

And, tadah! Here is my own Tonkatsu sauce :)

The sets that I and my friends ordered were really worth it. The set is 195 pesos. Good isn't it? :) Their service is really good too! The food is of course, incredible! :) The only problem is, the cafe is small to accommodate 20 persons. But above all, this cafe is really worth trying! :) Go visit them sometimes! :)

KatsuCafe is located at 329i Katipunan Ave., cor B. Gonzales, Loyola Heights, 1108 Quezon City, Philippines behind Bo's Coffee. KatsuCafe is open starting 11 AM onwards :) Enjoy!

I and my friends, looked for a place where we can do our news casting project. Then, we saw this place named "Alchemy" where you can rent a room for meetings or to study. 

We rented the conference room that is good for 4-6 people. It costs 600 pesos for 2 hours. Fully air-conditioned, friendly staffs, free wi-fi and such a quiet place. This picture below is the design at the wall of the conference room :)

They even have unlimited coffee! And take note, it is Starbucks! :) 

Alchemy also has a study hub for students who wants to study. It costs 180 pesos for 3 hours. Not bad, right? :)

 Alchemy is located at Katipunan Avenue above Yellow Cab :) Go try it! :)

ICE CREAM!!

Want something new? Something extraordinary? Something colder than your usual ice cream? Then ICECREAMIST is right for you! It will make you look like a dragon because of its dragon breath-like ice cream. Here's how it looks like. =)) You should really try their dragon's breath!! :)

STRAWBERRY TAHO


A cold weather and a warm food are always the perfect couple. While we were in Baguio last December, I and my friend craved for taho. Okay, first up. FAST FACT: What is taho? Taho is a very popular street food here in the Philippines. Sold mostly at the morning. Just perfect for a good breakfast. It is made out of fresh silken tofu, caramelized brown sugar also known as arnibal and of course, sago pearls. Going back, when I and my friend, went to Burnham Park, we saw a taho vendor and immediately bought one, but to our surprise, it was not the taho that we expected it to be. It has strawberry syrup, but it is just artificial. We want the natural one!! And so we went to Strawberry farm and there we found the natural strawberry taho that we have been craving for! TADAN!

And they are the "magtatahos". Kuya on the right side is showing the real strawberry that they have. They are so happy that we bought their taho :)

QUICK TIP: If you want to taste the natural strawberry taho in Baguio, don't get fooled by a vendor on the streets! Let them show you the real strawberries they have before you buy!
