The CHEMISTEA Experience


         Chemistea is one of the newest milk tea place in Shorthorn Project 8 Quezon City, I'm so happy that it's just a tricycle ride away from my place or a jeepney ride away. They are still on their soft opening when I visited the place but it looks like they already have a lot of loyal patrons. They had a sign on their counter that says they are short-staffed at the moment and I appreciate the heads up. I asked for their bestseller unfortunately at that time they ran out of cheesecake syrup for their Cheesecake Milk tea.... Whaaaaat??? Cheesecake Syrup??? I will definitely comeback and try that. I looked at the menu board and saw a DIY Milk tea - Like what a real chemist would do.. pour and stir the liquid stuff in a flask.. man I feel like a mad scientist right now.. no not really but it sure does look fun :) .


There were 2 people in the counter and both were really nice, the barista was really helpful too, (Im not sure whether I should call her a barista or a chemist hihi ^_^) I asked how the Experiment goes and she explained it really well and with so much enthusiasm, maybe because it was her birthday that day :) Will check on the enthusiasm when I go back once they are fully open. One thing's for sure I know, most Milktea based drinks are made from Oolong and I was just a bit iffy to mix it with other base because it might turn out bad, the birthday girl-barista -chemist assured me that she wouldn't bring out the drinks if it didn't taste good, that was a good assurance and I felt at ease. You get to choose your base Tea and 2 Syrups, Check out what I got below:

The Paul Boulangerie Experience


Finally got to try the newly opened Paul Boulangerie at the Bench Towers when I met up with a friend for a quick breakfast.  The smell of freshly baked breads was devine. There was wide range of bread and pastries to choose from. The ambiance was really nice too.

Awesome Pastry selection

The B&P Just Like Home Experience

           I was going to a brunch meeting with my Business Partner and she asked where I would like to eat, since Mandaluyong is not my turf I asked her for options, she suggested a desserts place and B&P, I opted for B&P because I wanted a real meal and I'm glad I made the right choice.

           B&P's ambiance is bright and has that cozy atmosphere and the interiors spells HAPPINESS. B&P Just like home is a casual dining restaurant that offers a modern take on well-loved breakfast specialties.

          There were too many delish looking food in the menu and I was so hungry I opted for one of my comfort food, Chicken and French Toast <3 - BNP Chick to Chick, Just by looking at the plating it'll make you drool. The Chicken here is sooooooooo good its now part of my Top 10 Fried Chicken List. The French Toast was also a delight. The texture is just about the perfect texture for a French Toast for me, not to soggy and not dry --- Perfect!

            My Business Partner ordered the French Pork Chop which was also very good, the combination of the greens and the pork chop complemented the dish well.

           When I asked for another serving of gravy it took a while because they had to make it from scratch. The wait was nothing compared to what was about to embrace my fried chicken. This is heaven. Plus I must say the Chef who prepared our food sure does know how to make food pretty! Since it was an open kitchen I could see her do her thing in there, she really looks passionate and she makes sure that everything that comes out her kitchen are not only highly pleasant to the taste but also a work of art.  Kudos Chef! ^_^
