Postrio Cakes and Pastries

May

2007

Postrio is my new coffee shop discovery in Cebu City. It’s located just in front of the hotel where I was staying (Golden Prince Hotel). After having my dinner at the Ayala Center, I decided to hang out there for a while. Having coffee was only my plan but I felt that I have to taste the Chocolate Decadence cake as per recommendation of one of the staff there.

When the Cafe Mocha was served, I immediately thought of how they came up with those layers. It was very intriguing. I guess science can do the explanation. One word. Density. The Chocolate Decadence cake is someone looking for a sugar rush. And because of the cake, I did not even put sugar into my coffee.

Before going back to the hotel to meet my boss just this evening, I grabbed another coffee and this time, I had a lemon bread. I got a Mocha Caramel Frap and it costs 80 bucks. Actually, I am not really a “frap kind of person”. I just wanted to have a cold drink because it was so hot.

So the next time you’ll be going to Cebu City and you are fond of coffee shops, try Postrio.

try their strawberry milkshake or strawberry banana…

i was on my 2nd trimester to my 2nd child when i learned about postrio… i was confined at chong hua hospital on my birthday and i cried so hard to my boyfriend and told him how depressing it was to be in a hospital bed instead of celebrating my bday…

ha ha.. i didnt have a dextrose on coz i was just on heplock for my IV meds so it was easy for my boyfriend to sneak me out of the hospital for a couple of hours to spend my bday… and he did!

he just talked to the nurse-on-duty and told her we were just gonna walk around the hospital coz i was getting bored and depressed in my room…

we rode a cab to postrio and ordered me a tall glass of their strawberry milkshake (or strawberry banana) and sort of a peach and mango pie that was so creamy and so mouth-watering… oh, you can just imagine how happy i was at that time… my baby kicked me here and there being so full, haha..

we got back to the hospital before midnight as if we were just inside the premises… my boyfriend slept happy and i kissed the night 100% more in love with him. =)
