I've always wondered how hummus would fare as a pasta sauce. I didn't expect to have it here of all…read moreplaces, in a small La Union town. If you're on the road up North in Rosario, La Union, and looking to eat somewhere that's not a Chowking/Mang Inasal/local Filipino cuisine, and a place that has a bit more flair, check out S.O.U.L. Café. While on our way to Baguio, we only accidentally stumbled upon this cafe only because we were supposed to eat at the Chowking across it, and it had no available parking spaces. Haha. This place is very easy to miss, so spot the 7-Eleven by the gas station at Rosario. This place has a laid back, bohemian vibe filled with artworks, wall paintings, like a cafe you would usually expect to be beside the beach. But it's not. It's on La Union's main road! They have some good selections on their menu if you're veering away from local, traditional fare. Their dishes are something you would expect to see in a restaurant in trendier places in Makati or BGC, but in reasonable prices. For vegans, get the Hummus Pasta (sans shrimp). It is pretty good, but the hummus-basil ratio is 1:4 which can be a bit disappointing. For a refreshing drink, you have to get their Lemon Green, which is a basil and lemon slushie that's going to make your day. Downside: Service is a bit slow and they're quite understaffed, and the server didn't seem too knowledgeable about their dishes, though.

We ate a late breakfast here with friends who always stop here on the way to Baguio. A nice…read morealternative to fast food. We all had the Filipino breakfast with the daing bangus. Perfectly fried, seasoned and a generous portion. It was great to have brewed coffee that tasted freshly brewed, not sitting for hours and had actual coffee taste instead of the instant 3 in 1 packets that are too sweet. Glad we ate local!

Cute hot chocolate cafe in Baguio. We stopped by here before heading back to Manila…read more Caught a rideshare from our condo rental. While my fam sat down in the waiting area I walked up to the host's desk to check in. Unfortunately, she had to step away for a moment (she seemed frazzled) so while I waited some random girl tried to cut me in line. Rude. She wanted to start some drama on our vacation. I called my fam up for reinforcements. They came and the girl backed off. Strength in numbers! The wait wasn't too long, maybe 10 minutes. Food was good. Hot chocolate was delicious. Service wasn't great but that's ok. They just took our order then they just dropped off the food at our table. No follow up to see how we were doing or to see if we needed anything else. Someone quickly dropped off our bill and that was it. I got up, walked around, then found an employee at a cash register and paid there. We checked out the merch afterwards. I bought some pasalubong.

While this restaurant shines in ambiance, the food fell short of expectations. The interior is…read morebeautifully designed, highly "instagrammable," and features a spacious, garden-like layout that perfectly complements the cool Baguio weather. However, the menu did not justify the almost-premium price tag. The puto bumbong paled in comparison to Solibao's, the chocolate drinks were underwhelming compared to other spots in town, and the palabok was merely average--tasting very similar to Susie's Cuisine. Logistics can also be a challenge, as parking is limited and you should expect to queue due to the persistent crowds. Ultimately, it's a convenient stop if you are already in the area playing golf or charging your electric vehicle, but it is difficult to recommend as a standalone culinary destination.

Oh. My. Gulay. What a setting! Tucked away atop the La Azteca building, OMG is the perfect place to…read moreescape from the hustle and bustle of Session Road in Baguio. You have to climb a few flights of stairs and the last flight feels a bit rickety, but it's totally worth it for the ambience. Like a storybook land and art museum turned into a restaurant, OMG offers a wide open and green space, with views of the city. You won't find many vegetarian restaurants in the area (OMG is the only one I know of), so it's a welcome change of pace. The service is good and the food isn't bad, but I'm rating OMG five stars strictly on the ambience of the space. The food is more like three or four stars, but if you're looking for non-meat dishes, this is the place to go. Just be prepared to walk up a bunch of stairs. I tried a few dishes and they were all right; I was hoping to be surprised by the putanesca (which normally uses anchovies), but it was a pretty straightforward pasta. I also got the egg noodles and veggies and they were exactly as written. I'm assuming there's no patis used due to the vegetarian menu, which is a shame because that magical umami could've livened up the dishes I had. Still, I can't rate Oh My Gulay any lower than five stars due to its amazing interior. I'd recommend OMG for a merienda or light lunch so you and your crew can enjoy the spectacular atmosphere. Take your time and enjoy the place for what it is: a unique restaurant with good views and decent eats.

So sad not to give this beautiful place a five star! I have…read moregiven it 3 tries hoping for improvement but it seems to have gotten worse each time I have been. It's at the top floor of the La Azotea Building in the middle of Session Rd. The view and ambiance is worth all the flights of stairs (once you reach it). It's a vegetarian restaurant that serves very good food (if they are not out of it). Sit upstairs at your own risk! because you WILL BE FORGOTTEN! 1st time- 3 items on the menu was not available, we had to go downstairs to get the server to order desserts. 2nd time- 4 items on the menu was not available AND THEY WERE ALSO OUT OF THEIR HOT CHOCOLATE (Baterol) that they boast about. Again, had to go downstairs to get the server. 3rd time- ordered the only thing they seemed to have during our first 2 visits, the Caesar Salad. CAN YOU BELIEVE THEY WERE OUT? we proceeded to order what we didn't get to try (cause they were out of it) the last 2 times... they were out! The place was nice, the food was good ( what they had available), the price was decent. Unfortunately, the service was very slow and they are always out of at least 4 items on their menu.
