It was one of those usual I-need-my-sanity-back-so-let’s-meet-for-coffee nights. Actually, we haven’t done this for a long time because of our busy skeds or just simply, we don’t have the time. And so last night we decided to meet up and ended up seating alfresco at Café Mary Grace in Greenbelt 2.
Ensaymada is what Café Mary Grace was known for but we thought we’re too hungry for some fluffy bread with cheese, we started off with their pasta dishes.
Spanish Sardines & Olives Pasta
Spanish Sardines & Olives Pasta. An aglio e olio pasta with Spanish sardines adds kick to your palate, with mushrooms and tomatoes. Php212
Seafood Pasta
Seafood Pasta. Pasta with clams, squid, shrimp, and cream dory in seafood-based sauce with mushroom, herbs, and olives. Php244
The pasta we tried was okay. Tasty but we did not finish each of our plates as the servings were generously good for two people.
We hurriedly jumped from oily to sweet (and salty) and ordered hot choco and ensaymada.
Mint Hot Chocolate
Mint Hot Chocolate. Hot choco with a hint of peppermint. Php105
White Hot Chocolate. Tastes like melted Alpine White chocolate
White Hot Chocolate. White chocolate topped with crushed cashews. Php105
Three Cheese Ensaymada
Three Cheese Grilled Ensaymad. Ensaymada with cottage cheese, edam cheese, and Laguna cheese. Php164
Good food, check. Cozy ambience, check. Great company, check. It was the usual I-need-my-sanity-back-so-let’s-meet-for-coffee nights, albeit caffeine-free.
