Brew-kus

I've been reading and hearing about Brew-kus since the beginning of the year and it was only now that I was finally able to try it.

Moroccan Mint tea - premium selection of Dilmah Tea served with honey

Wintermelon Tea Milk Frost Series - sweet, salty, creamy foam nestled  on top of the sweet wintermelon tea.

Fish and chips - crispy cream dory + special beer batter + hand cut fries + tartar sauce. I've tasted better fish and chips at Mercato market.

Wild Mushroom Pasta - spaghetti noodles + rich cream sauce + prosciutto slices +  shitake mushrooms + truffle oil <3 font="font">

Three cheese omelette - Three farm fresh eggs with mild cheddar + feta cheese +fresh buffalo cheese served with roasted potatoes 

Brew-kus classic burger - premium ground beef patty + special dressing + fresh cut fries. I prefer MissB's Tuckshop Burger. 

Banana Foster French Toast - thick slice of white bread + special milk batter + flambeed bananas + nuts served with home style roasted potatoes... This was supposed to be our dessert but it wasn't the champ for me. It lacked sweetness and I wasn't able to appreciate the nuts.

Food for thought

Where to find them...

I've finally tried the Peppermint Milk Tea my sister was raving about aaaaaannnndddd..... I must say that it is really really really good!!! =D


In fact, I forgot all about taking a pic of it. Haha....


On a funnier note, I bought three drinks... the store guy asked for my name and even spelled it out just to note that it was correct.... Lo and behold when we got home, I noticed he placed different spellings on three different cups! LOL @ Moonleaf guy!

Another day at Mercato

Last 05 November 2011 I revisited Mercato tagging along 2 of my friends.

One friend ordered liempo with rice. The pork was really good and the serving was big enough for 2 cups of rice.

I saw a new milk tea store so I tried it. - uhmmm... I've had better.

The isaw was not a hit among us. Only one friend liked it.

And this kebab was also not a hit. I was the only one who raved about the meat being juicy.

And this I got. I like lengua and although I finished the entire meal, I found the taste to be too salty.

Oh and there was a new store... a roti store at that!

So we tried it. We loved the Roti Canai - plain roti with some sort of curry dip. It was really good! We also got Chunky monkey - roti with peanut butter and banana.

Chatime

Chatime is a bubble-tea place at Landmark, Makati. I always wanted to try it out ever since it opened but every time I pass-by, queue lines would go as far as inside the Landmark mall itself... So one lucky afternoon when most folks are still inside their offices or schools, I happen to pass-by this shop and there were only 8 people in line. Lucky me!

The choice menu with pictures of the best-selling drinks.

And this is where you pick-out your choice from a 2-column list.

After telling the cashier your order, they give you a circular thing and your receipt. Then you wander inside Landmark and wait for the circular thing to light up and vibrate.

Bubble Tea

@ Ground Level, SM North

11 March 2010

the interiors look cozy but we preferred to stay outside- al fresco style

Choco Mint is the only reason why I wanted to try this place.

iced lemony citrusy slushie-like tea with "bubbles" at the bottom - It was very sour for me - citrusy. The tea flavor tasted like brewed tea. The "bubbles" - think small zagu balls.

my Choco Mint treat... FAIL. -- they bubbles+chocomint don't go together for me.
