There's the Mocha Latte (P995, good for 10 pax), which has soft chiffon cake with rich mocha cream, and the Mini Frozen Brazo (P945, good for six pax), which features a refreshing mix of fruit filling, creamy custard, pavlova, marshmallowy meringue, and fresh mangoes.
8Cuts
Ever dreamt of having your two favorite things in one bite?
For its birthday celebration, 8Cuts has made that possible with the limited-edition Smashed Oh! that combines the classic 8Cuts Cheeseburger and its signature Oh-Rings. Think juicy beef patty and gooey cheese with smashed onion rings sandwiched between two warm buns.
Order it as is or make it a Daily Steal to enjoy it with a side of Oh-Rings and iced tea.
USA Cheese Guild
At the recently concluded USA Cheese Chef's Table by Wildflour Hospitality Group director Chef Carlo Miguel and USA Cheese Guild consultant, regionally renowned chef Muhammad Imran, at Osteria Antica, guests got to enjoy a six-course dinner that showed how different USA cheeses can be part of various dishes while complementing local tastes.
That kicked off the special tie-up between the USA Cheese Guild and the LTB Philippines Chefs Association, which looks to introduce more Filipino culinary professionals to the range of flavors, textures, and uses of cheeses from the US.
With the partnership comes good news for you, cheese lovers: You may find more USA varieties on local menus soon.
Theo & Philo
Love Theo & Philo? Here's a reason to love it even more: The brand known for its proudly Filipino bean-to-bar chocolates has just opened its first cafe at Mitsukoshi Mall in BGC.
At the new spot, you can enjoy a good cup of hot chocolate or some sweet treats, from cakes and ice cream to tarts, bonbons, and more.
Cap off your visit by shopping for some chocolate bars and gift sets for your nearest and dearest.
The Theo & Philo cafe is located on the second floor of the mall, open from 11:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. on weekdays and 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. on weekends.
Nestle Crunch
In case you missed it: Nestle Crunch has a new ice cream flavor.
The new Vanilla Caramel features the brand's vanilla ice cream with a delightfully surprising salted caramel syrup inside—all coated in milk chocolate and crispy cereals, of course.
You can find it, along with its Cookies & Cream and Chocolate flavors, at Robinsons, Mercury Drug, Alfamart, Shopwise, The Marketplace, WalterMart, and major supermarkets nationwide.
