Fruit waffle- fluffy waffle, fresh and sweet fruit, comes with maple syrup (which has been hard for me to find on this island), and yummy cream Croissant sandwich- bacon, tomato, onion, egg... huge, crispy, tasty and worth the price! Beware because it is messy. Skillet- huge size, 550 pesos, but worth it if you're hungry. Meats, eggs, and beans. Fried rice & spam- perfect portioning, tastes like homemade and delicious! Service is good and ambiance is even better. Support the locals!

Had the pleasure of trying their Chocolate Surprise cake at a party. So when I spotted this Leona's at the first floor of Ayala Center Mall, I just had to stop in. I ordered a slice of Carrot Cake. My wife ordered a slice of Mango cake. We ate them at their shop because they have plenty of seats and tables for dining in. Both of the cakes tasted alright, but the Chocolate Surprise is still my favorite by far. I will make further trips to Leona's to see if there is anything else I really like.

Apparently they are machines that are unable to recognise human beings if we dont stand directly in front of the register. I walked out, out of patience and no pie.

Postrio has a small stand inside Parkmall in Mandaue. Everything in their display cases look wonderful. I got a Mini Custard for myself and a Mini Buko for my wife. She said her dessert was really good. My mini custard was delectable as well. In fact, I liked it so much that I bought a whole Custard Pie to share with the family at home. Looking forward to trying more of their goodies in the future!!

I used to love Krispy Kreme donuts in the Philippines. I liked them even more than their shops in…read morethe United States. Sad to say that this is no longer the case for me. I dropped by this Krispy Kreme at Ayala Center in Cebu City twice recently. Each time, the shop was packed with customers. They were lined up patiently, and all the tables and seats were filled to capacity. The donuts were beautifully presented in the display cases just as they are in the U.S.A. I did not see an assembly line of Original Glaze donuts being cooked at this location. Maybe that is the reason why their original glaze donuts did not taste as yummy as I am accustomed to. Was really disappointing. I tried a couple of other donut flavors. The Kit Kat donut tasted okay. The New York Cheesecake donut was alright too. Overall, I felt that this Krispy Kreme branch was decent. Probably will not be patronizing them very much in the future, though. If the Original Glaze donut is not going to taste as well as in the States, then there is not much else reason to drop by.

They offer lots of baked goods, prepackaged and ready for you to grab and go. For just a few pesos you'll be able to snack on a pandesal, pan de coco, and other Filipino favorites. We also noticed that the other half of the space (not sure if it was a separate business) served hot food during lunch and dinner time. Unfortunately, we never ate there due to our mission to eat as much lechon as possible during our stay in Cebu. But for your sweet tooth craving, Anita's Bakeshop is a good choice.

They have one display case filled with beautiful looking cookies, cupcakes, and cakes. So hard to resist these beauties. My wife tried their Mango Float Brownie a' la mode. It tasted decent to me. We ordered 3 cupcakes. The Ube cupcake was good. My niece really liked the Lemon Poppyseed cupcake. The Dark Mud Pie cupcake was good too. The cupcakes were a bit dry, but the icing for each helped balance the dryness of the cake portions. It was good to try Sweet Little Things. Might be a regular if I lived in the condos close by.

But with COVID-19, they only do delivery and pickup uban sa Grab ug Lalamove. Personally, I have enjoyed coming to any of their locations (when it was possible to sit in), whether in Vibo or in SM Seaside. The vibe of each shop is cheery and modern with a family friendly approach. With all the cakes displayed at the counter and gelato selections, this place hits the spot. Whenever I am visiting Cebu, I make my way to go here for matcha and dessert. Their cakes are affordable and well made. They have multiple selection of flavors, especially for cakes from ube macapuno to mango pandan to German chocolate cake. They're always moist and delicious. You can order cake slices too if you have no reason to buy a full on sized cake. They have a nice drink selection but nothing too out of the ordinary, if you're into speciality coffee. However, I've tried their matcha latte which I love! Very frothy and flavorful yet creamy. Lastly, if you haven't tried their mango sago pandan, well, you'll thank me when you do. If you love sago desserts, the serving size is great when you're in need of something light but sweet. Ultimately beats eating cake or any other pastry in Cebu's hot weather. CR available. Open decently late with lots of seating and tables. Friendly staff. Mangaon ta!

Comforting, we would order several of their in-house baked breads to snack on. There are a variety of savory flavors which makes this place more of a breakfast and lunch or a merienda spot. I adore their tuna breads as well as the sisig baboy bread! Very Pinoy! The sweets are definitely a plus here, reminding me of places like Tous le Jour or Paris Baguette! The store is well maintained as well but can get crowded. Pastries usually get sold out at night so get it while it's hot! Beautiful cakes sold here too. Open on the ground floor of Ayala across of Bo's Coffee. Open late! Not really a workable place. Mangaon ta!
