Have you tasted this? Melon nata yoghurt

I realize we've been posting a lot of "discoveries" lately so I'm starting a "have you tasted this?" blog line :)

This time we ask:

Have you tasted Nestle's Melon Nata Yoghurt?

I know, I know, it sounds weird. But since I've tasted Nata de coco flavored yoghurt in Thailand, I've grown a fondness for this flavor. Nata de coco yoghurt is also carried locally but it is only now that a new twist is given to this old favorite: Melon!

I can't really say this flavor is great without making a hasty generalization because I know that liking nata de coco in yoghurts is more of an acquired taste-- which I have acquired. hihi :P So I just say, try it and decide for yourself! Who knows, you might enjoy it as much as I do! :D

Healthy indulgence

So, NJ is quite a fan of the healthy (and more sour) version of yoghurt. I, on the other hand, was searching the market for a not-so-healthy (meaning not totally focused on putting fruits as the only available topping) and not-sour-at-all yoghurt shop.

Luckily, I found THE ONE. Golden Spoon. What do I love about this particular brand? Everything!

First, they offer a wide variety of flavors. From pistachio to chocolate caramel to strawberry to brownie (and believe me, they have a lot more flavors to choose from). Just with the yoghurt, you'll feel satisfied already. You don't have to worry especially since their flavors are either non-fat or low fat.

Second, they also offer a wide variety of toppings! From fruits to almonds to chocolate chips to marshmallows!! They also have syrups such as hot chocolate fudge and melted marshmallow cream. Ohhh, my mouth is watering by just remembering the shop. Haha!

I find it so adorable that they stick to their name. They actually do give you a gold colored plastic spoon with your order. (Hehe..yeah, how I wish they give out real gold spoons! ahahaha.)

How about you, have you tried Golden Spoon Yoghurt? :)

Restaurant review: Cafe Mediterranean

You all know how S and I love the taste of Middle East food. Something about all the spices and clean but full taste of it excites us!-- and admittedly, it's because of all the hummus :) hehe

So I was so excited when I found a quaint "cafe" offering Mediterranean food (slash our favorite kind of food!) Girls, say hello to Cafe Mediterranean!

Cafe Mediterranean boasts of authentic Mediterranean cuisine. The first time S and I saw this restaurant, we immediately thought it offered Greek cuisine and since for us, the best greek resto will always be Cyma, we didn't really bother checking out the place. But alas! We were so wrong!

The pita bread was crispy but soft at the same time. Yum, yum! The only downside: they serve only one piece. You have to have a separate order for more (which you probably should do because I'm sure you'll be craving for more stuff to dip in your hummus)

Aaaahh... the hummus :) One word: lalalalove! :P

Their pizza came as the biggest surprise. It was soooooo good! The crust was really crispy and very thin. The toppings were also very tasty! It was very authentic and for a meager price of less than 350php, I say it was so worth it! Overall, the things we ordered cost us less than 500php. Cheap huh?

I think one of the coolest things about the Cafe aside from from its good food of course, is that they offer semi-vegetarian food. It's so hard to come by vegetarian friendly restaurants that it's such a pleasant surprise to find one that you would actually enjoy :)

I was eye-ing more things in the menu which I've heard a lot of praise for so I'm recommending the following if you ever go there: white cheese pizza, kebab pizza, grilled chicken, and spicy pork tenderloin. (Me and my other friends went there and they swear by the great taste of the following, I trust them, hence my recommendation. hehe)

So for being vegetarian friendly, having good value for money and offering really tasty food, the Cafe Mediterranean gets 4 1/2 kisses from us :) ♥♥♥♥
