Designer Blooms Cafe

Designer Blooms is one of our local florist stores that we can really count on when it comes to the freshest quality flowers and just like their Cafe which has been running for about a year now is also promising you to give the freshest delicacies that will satisfy your taste buds.

Designer Blooms Cafe is also filled with such lovely floral and herb plants that are not just good for display but you may also purchase it there. It truly gives that Sunday Garden Brunch vibe doesn't it?

I love how modern and eclectic their interior is with the added elegance thanks to these mirrors.

It is very ideal to start every meal with a refreshing beverage first.

This is actually Megann Monday's Cafe Macchiato. I oredered their Latte instead and it's quite good, not to die for but it's good.

They also got alcoholic beverages though.

This is their Hearty Mushroom Soup, it's good for me. I enjoyed it, although Angel said it is quite salty but for my taste I loved it. 

The first spread is Tomatoes, I generally like tomatoes so my judgement would be biased. The second one is Bruschetta and Grilled Mushroom Salpicao, this one is perfect with the hint of spicy I think this one is my favorite among the three. The third one is Tinapa Mousse, It just has a dominant flavor of cheese with a subtle taste of fish, I'm amazed how it tastes so surprisingly appetizing since I don't like fish so much.

 I fully recommend you guys to order these when you go here.

Spinach-Artichoke Grilled Chicken Panini.

This one is a complete meal with the meat and vegetables in it and it can surely make you feel full.

DBC Jalapeno Burger.

See how fat the patty is!? Don't get threatened with the Jalapeno on its name, it is pretty tolerable. I am guy in search for the best burger in town (Just like the gang in HIMYM) and somehow I would consider this on my list.

Truffle Mac and Cheese.

Truffle, Cheese and Bacon this indulging tempting mistress will definitely lead you to sin sweetly.

I know ya'll try this!

Pepperoni Panizza.

I like it when I get to customize my food just like this one.

And here's a tutorial on how to prepare it:

 Put the basil leaves, rocket aragula, alfalfa sprouts and tomatoes.

Make sure you get them placed still because you will be rolling it and must prevent all the toppings to fall. 

Put some oil to it for more flavor.

Don't forget to smile and be happy when you're doing it, moods can alter flavors. :)

Roll it nicely... sorry for the veinful hands that I have lol! 

Then dig in! (I love this part).

 I wanna thank Angel Rodriguez (www.lilmisswonderwoman.com) for inviting me over and Megann Monday (www.spellmegann.blogspot.com) for helping me with the pictures. I will never forget my camera again... nor its battery haha!

Le Petit Cheri

Just a couple of hours ago, my friend and I get to have the chance to try this very eloquent and elegant patisserie restaurant, Le Petit Cheri just along Molito Lifestyle Center, Alabang.

I know I embrace much of my Asian ancestry with how I design my space (and our house) with contemporary aesthetics, although there is a part of me that appreciates a little bit of romanticism from the European perspective.

I just love how they made those luggage as a functional seats which added a casual yet classy vibe to the room.

This is how the tables look, very conducive for those guys out there who would want to take their ladies out for a date.

These are actually large breads, like you have to use both arms to carry 'em. Yes, they are for sale but I apologize I forgot to ask how much they are. 

 Pictures from different tourist spots around Europe surely made the ambiance exquisite and the draping of the purple curtains complemented and highlighted the large panels to view the outside. 

I saw them make the crepes and it just made me salivate. lol. 

 I apologize for the narcissism. lol.

This staircase leads you to the second floor where there are books readily available for you to read, most of their books are about pop icons and culture. The place is also wifi capable for those who want to work in this kind of environment and setting.

This is my friend Joy Avilla who helps me take my pictures and here you may conclude what we decided to read... Yey directioners!

Truffle Cake - 145.00 php

You will not regret buying this one, might seem to be expensive but it's worth it. It is simply deliciously moist, not too sweet as it has nuts (almonds I think) to complement the flavor of the chocolate.

Crepe Petit - 245.00 php

I think this is their specialty in desserts crepes and I fully recommend you guys to taste this! It has peaches that was poached with red wine partnered with vanilla ice cream and chocolate caramel whip, combine them all together and it's a total foodgasm inside your mouth.

Thank you Le Petit Cheri for a dining experience worth repeating again. From the ambiance to the food to the service of the staff, everything was great! Good job for the management/owner. Too bad I only get to taste their desserts, hopefully next time I'd get to let you know more about them.
