MoMo, Baker’s Passion and Chef’s Brown

Yesterday was productive and expensive. Blame it on me for missing MoMo Cafe. I love their Cafe Mocha, had to order it in the largest size (16 oz, P105).

What’s great about MoMo is that it offers a different take on coffee shops yet their prices are lower than most. Add to that the absence of overcrowding, AND a free chocnut that comes with their coffee ;D

And since everyone in my thesis group is gluttonous (there is no better term), coffee and fries weren’t enough to keep us satisfied. Next destination: Baker’s Passion.

We ordered Quattro Formaggi (or as Jess would have it, Quattro Flamingo) and Garlic & Shrimp Pizza (P210, P198 respectively). Both are 10 inches and thin-crust. Their pizzas are very flavorful; you’ll get your money’s worth. Try it with the green pepper sauce — my friends are crazy about it.

We separately ordered budget bread meals which saves you P20-P30, rather than buying by piece. Each meal comes with a piece of Miss Sandy (P10) — a mini sponge cake filled with either chocolate, custard, or cheese.

Two thumbs up for Momo and BP

In other food news, if you live around the Bacood neighborhood, you should try Chef’s Brown (spelling, correct!), if you haven’t already. I am most crazy about their pancit – very rich in flavor, yum yum. I was surprised upon discovery that Chef’s Brown is a little karinderia near the neighborhood church. It’s a high-end karinderia though — they have like, 8-10 employees (in unform!) and they deliver door-to-door! Plus, most of their meals are just priced P50.

And now for some shameless and free plugging:
