Came here for breakfast while we were staying in the city of Baguio. They have 2 floors, the first…read morefloor is more for their baked goods and a cup of coffee. Upstairs is a large room for more of a sit down type of breakfast. So the 9 of us ordered a lot of different foods. The main waitress was really patient with us as we tried to figure out what we wanted individually and as a group, explaining to us the best options, which was nice of her. 1 of the other servers wasent very nice but the other gentleman was. There was a tv there that they put on the basketball game, and they seemed to be more interested in watching the game then attending to our needs. To refil your water you need to walk to where the 5 gallon container of water was and get your own water which is ok since there is no service charge included in the pricing. We ordered a lot of food from garlic fried rice to fried chicken to their fish and other dishes. It took approximately 20 min for the food to come out which isnt bad. The food wasent bad. Its so so, not the greatest but not the worst, what you would expect in a small time city with small time capabilities. Price-wise it wasent too expensive. Overall i wouldnt mind trying the pastries they offered, but i would like to try the other restaurants available in the area

As we rambled down the streets of Baguio, one of the places that was highly recommended was Café by…read morethe Ruins. The eclectic menu was highly satisfying and we gorged on so many dishes. It is an iconic café, restaurant and bakery in Baguio that's long been beloved by both locals and visitors. The ambience has a rustic, artsy vibe and has played an important role in the city's cultural and culinary scene. It's called Café by the Ruins quite literally because it was built beside, and partly within, the ruins of a war-damaged building in downtown Baguio. After World War II, much of Baguio was destroyed during the battle to retake the city. This is why the café became a natural home for artists, writers, activists and thinkers, the space itself tells a story of survival and reinvention.

I thought that I wrote a review for this place years ago. I have been going here for about 30…read moreyears. It is an amazing restaurant with a historical location. All this time I thought the restaurant was located on Chuntug. During my younger days, Baguio was known for the clubs and casinos at a couple of the hotels. Things changed after a major earthquake, and I guess the name of the street for the Cafe By The Ruins also changed to Shuntug. I love all the architectural changes that the restaurant has made after the horrible fire they had. Of course the restaurant would have a wonderful ambiance, since the co-founders were artists and creative minded individuals. This is a location where memories are created with an unforgettable dining experience. They proudly served farm-to-table food before the social movement of using local ingredients in food preparation. In fact, the menu changes due to the seasonal fruits and vegetables. I encourage you to ask your server for their recommendations. They will know what's currently popular, and it is a great way to discover new items you might not have considered otherwise. I say that only because I would not have tried the duck pinikpikan, since I remembered how chicken pinikpikan was made. I'm glad we ordered it, because it was the perfect match with the rice that was served with it. The black ink pasta with fish rose cream sauce and crispy tapa are dishes that I'll be ordering again. I also asked what the server recommended for a dessert, and I'm hoping that they'll always have the strawberry pavlova on their menu. I also enjoyed Christine's Crepe. The Ice Ruins Coffee was a wonderful beverage with my desserts. This is a restaurant that I always go to whenever I go to Baguio.

This branch is in a really convenient location and is maintained well. The people who work here are also super nice! I bought my birthday cake (the Purple Carousel chocolate cake) here, and they gave me an extra bag of sweets! My favorites are their: *Lemon bars - really great lemon flavor and have a tart, refreshing sweetness *Chocolate revel bars - probably the best I've had *Chocolate Campfire cake - very rich, but in this amazing way where you don't get tired of eating it! I've also had their: *Purple Carousel chocolate cake - classic chocolate cake with these chocolate wafers on top *Mini Pecan Pie - not the consistency I prefer in a pecan pie but the flavor was still very good *Mini Chocnut Pie - light, could use a stronger chocnut flavor, I really liked the crust though *Cookies - I love cookies so I usually get 1 or 2 with whatever else I'm buying that day, theirs are crispy on the edges and chewy on the inside *Quiche Tinapa - Liked this a lot and just ate mine chilled, but I think it would be better to warm it a little at home

That said, cousin-in-law, Idol (not his real name, that's just what we call him) suggested we try this place. "You gotta try their apple salad, it's soooo good!" No doubt we're gonna get that, "so let's go!" Party of 4, we walked in and Idol immediately asked if we could be seated upstairs. "It's nice up there." Luckily, a big party (who occupied the entire floor) just got done, so we were seated right away. The apple salad was a must, but after looking through their menu, I had my eye on some other stuff I've never had before. We put in our orders and waited patiently for grub. It's a really beautifully laid out place. The decor wasn't overwhelming, just right for the space. Then the food started rolling over. CALAMANSI JUICE: Sweet and sour tang - more sweet than sour - and it was refreshing especially on a hot, humid (albeit rainy) day. Good start. SIDE SOUP: Also a good starter to get the appetite going. Man, how did they make this?! It had some depth and flavor, the bowl was still warm by the time I got through it! I wanted to ask for more, but kept in mind to keep room for grub! APPLE CHICKEN WALDORF SALAD: The same Idol recommended. Apple was crispy fresh, the walnuts added texture, and the romaine lettuce was a good cleanse to the semi-sweet dressing. We were a party of 4, but I think I ate more than my share. He's right: it's really good! Get this! SIZZLING BULALO: Okay, I ordered this because I was curious. I really just wanted to see what this looks like since I've only had it as a soup. Instead of broth, they doused it with with bulalo flavored gravy with a side of veggies. The meat was cooked tender and flavored so perfectly. The entire dish maintained its "bulalo" profile. Delish! Curious no more: I loved it! GUISADONG KANGKONG: It came with seafood?!? Even better! Veggies were so fresh, it tasted like it just got plucked minutes before cooking. Then mixing it with the well-prepped and cooked seafood! Wow! Two thumbs up for sure! PASTA BOLOGNESE: Idol's main dish. Of course he let me try it. So... most pastas in the Philippines are prepped with some level of sweetness to it. This was done RIGHT. There was only a teenee hint of sweet to this one, otherwise, nearly perfect. And the garlic bread was done right, a good cleanser, if need be. My nephew and niece ordered bento boxes I didn't get to try, but their empty plates says a lot. FOOD: 5. There was nothing I tried and didn't like. SERVICE: 5. Our server was attentive and friendly. Service with a smile is always a plus. VALUE: 4.5. I felt it was more than fair, but might be a bit pricey for locals. PARKING: Challenging in this area. No private lots and street parking is packed. Plan accordingly. OVERALL: 4.75. And that's rounding down. Nearly perfect. So many other things I wanna try on their menu. I shall return - even just to have that salad again!

I had kapeng Barako and cheesecake. I had a good convo with the staff and this branch of Figaro is barely new,newly-built as the Planet G building. So the food that they serve here are all from Baguio City which is 2 hours away from San Juan. The cheesecake that I got was just delivered,lol. I thought it was fresh and tasty....buttery,so Filipino. We just love margarine and sugar! The interior was cozy and outside seatings are fun too! I watched the Live Acoustic Music Band from inside. An added attraction! My visit was Monday at 8PM. Free wi-fi. Across the street is the San Juan Surf Resort. A guard will assist with parking. Next door is a sushi place.
