Margrette - a new find

I met a friend whom I haven't really seen (if I remember it right) for 2 years. As we planned to catch-up on the 26th of December, we really regretted to have agreed to meet in a mall. There were too many people and all of the restaurants seem to never run out of customers too! So, we decided to dine outside the mall instead.

When asked of any suggestions, I immediately thought of this place I have been passing by in J.A. Clarin St., named Margrette.


It's actually one of Ramirez cake chains here in Tagbilaran. As we planned to have lunch, we were a bit skeptical of their menu as we really thought it's more of a dessert place. But we took the chance anyway!



And so we ordered..

I had Dill Fish with lemon butter sauce..


And my friend had Grilled Pork Chop..


Since this is more of a dessert place, we ordered a cupcake from their display. Haha


We waited for a while for our orders. So, I roamed around and took some of their products instead.






 Their food was actually not bad for its very affordable price. It tastes good and I particularly loved the presentation. I am not into sweets that much so I may not have a right to review their cupcakes. Ironic, isn't it?

Our only concern was that there were no other customers aside from those who stop by to pre-order cakes. 

I hope this restaurant will also be known and get the attention it deserves. You may want to check out their very affordable menu first..

Phoebe's Cupcakery

After our Little Saigon Big Bangkok food trip, we headed to a dessert place named Phoebe's Cupcakery. It was just few meters from the restaurant. And I just love the facade.


It was such a cute place and reminded me so much of a doll house but a much bigger version.



Before we got to order, Ms. Pia Cayetano , in sports attire, also entered the place. We had a souvenir shot of course.


Then, we picked our cupcake choices. Well, Vi treated us so, we ended up choosing every flavor.

Top: Scarlette (Red Velvet) and Cinabunny

We ate these at the office and I enjoyed the Lemony Snicket the most! Go, try them!!!!
