Caffe Bene: Holiday Drinks Part 4

Off to the last part of our holiday drinks series! But first, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year everyone! We were around the Paranaque area and tried a holiday drink offered at Caffe Bene. The commute was a little tiring and we needed a little something to put us back on track.

Iced Green Tea Macchiato

Earth-y toned, the brown caramel and the green matcha created a very needed thrist quencher. Ice and cream laced the top view of this cup. The sweetness from the caramel blended well with the strong herb taste of matcha. It's like being exciting while still being serious.

They also offered some holiday mini cakes. Tempted to try one but we opted to head over to our next stop where we will actually have our lunch. Watch out for our sushi place visit soon *guess where*!

There we go, our last post for 2015. Thank you everyone for a food-filled 2015! See you all again next year! Stay tuned for 2015 recap series this January 2016.

Caffe Bene: Sunday Morning Gelato and Cake

On one Sunday morning, we decided to take a short pre-lunch munch at Caffe Bene, SMX MOA Branch.

Once you step into Caffe Bene, the cozy interiors make you forget that you are actually in a convention center.

Their shelves are lined up with books and other interesting pieces like this mini pay phone.

Gelato

A number of flavors were available that day. They offer free taste to help you decide what flavor to get. I tried 5 flavors before I decided on the 2 scoops I bought. In the end, I chose one tart flavor, and one sweet flavor.

Bene Gelato: Yogurt

There is something attractive about the sour tart taste of yogurt.

Bene Gelato: Speculoos

Under the yogurt gelato scoop lies a cold treat for the sweeter side of your taste buds - the Speculoos gelato. I bet this is one of their best sellers. Look how little of it is left on display!

Mango Crunch Cake

And on another Sunday morning, we went back to try one of their cakes. Alternating layers of crunch and cake would go well with coffee.

Too bad they do not offer their bingsu and waffles at this branch. Also, this branch is only open when there are events at SMX.
