Sunday Breakfast at Kitchen Diaries Cafe

It's Sunday and I was too lazy to prepare breakfast so Hubby and I decided to just have breakfast somewhere in Kapitolyo so I searched the web and Kitchen Diaries showed up. I've been seeing this place whenever we eat at Kanto Freestyle Breakfast but we never had the chance to try it until today.





They're still on soft opening so they have a very limited breakfast menu but they have a wide choices of cakes and pastires. They suggested we order their bestseller Angus Corned Beef, which we did. For the cakes, we tried their Black Forest and Strawberry Cheesecake.

Capuccino at P85

I think the Black Forest is a bit tough but I loved their Strawberry Cheesecake. While we're eating, we're given free samples of Red Velvet Crinkles, Brownie Brittle and Oreo Cream Cheese Cookies and we liked all of them. We even bought our son Brownie Brittle for take away since he almost want to eat the whole jar (LOL).

Overall, we liked the ambiance, the service and the food and we'll definitely go back soon.

Kitchen Diaries is located at Unit 1E, 1st Corner San Rafael Street, Kapitolyo, Pasig City

Milky and Sunny and Yummy!

After attending the Sunday Mass, one of Hubby's officemate texted him asking if Goto Monster is open but they're closed on Sundays so she asked us for recommendations on where they can have breakfast and we suggested Milky and Sunny in Kapitolyo. It's a few minutes away from home and we haven't eaten yet so Hubby decided to meet them there and have breakfast .





On their menu, I was looking for something different, but all they have are food you can prepare at home so I just went for their Garlic Longganisa. I also tried out their Choco Milky Shake. Hubby ordered Bacon and Spam Pasta plus Banana Shake.

Our orders were served after 15 minutes, and the first thing I noticed is the yellow-orange color of the egg yolk so I assumed they're using high quality eggs. Their Garlic Rice and Garlic Longganisa tasted good too. I was also able to try Hubby's Bacon and Spam Pasta and it's too Cheesy. I can taste the Parmesan and it had a twist of Queso de Bola. It also immediately became my favorite. The only thing I didn't like is the Choco Milky Shake. It's too sweet. I like their food better when compared with Kanto Freestyle maybe because of the quality of the ingredients used.

The place is cozy and kid-friendly. They have books and toys that children can play while waiting for the food to be served or after eating.

Milky and Sunny is located in East Kapitolyo.

Silantro Fil-Mex Cantina in Kapitolyo

It's already 3 in the afternoon and Hubby is still not sleepy so we strolled around our neighborhood to have snacks. Our first choice is Silantro since we just want something light. It's a Fil-Mex Restaurant along East Capitol Street and just right beside Holy Family Parish Church.

Here's their menu:


I ordered Lamb Tacos and Nachos. They served our food with three different sauces, Guacamole, Chili and Garlic. The Nachos tasted great and I think it's very cheap because one serving is huge and already good for up to 3 persons.

Lamb Tacos at P75/Ligero
The place is just small and we're really lucky that we're done just before customers started lining up. I loved the food and for sure I'm gonna be back soon to take my friends here. Next time I'll try their cocktails.

Kanto Freestyle Breakfast - Kapitolyo Branch

A day after my officemates and I had our breakfast in Kanto Libis (Backread Here), Hubby wanted to eat there again but since I'm aware that they have a branch in Kapitolyo, I asked him if we can try there instead. It's located in 1st Street but their place isn't noticeable so we had a hard time finding them.

They don't have a parking space but you can park your car along the street.

The place is a garage converted into a restaurant and it's spacier than their branch in Libis.

After we were handed their menu, I noticed there are some listed on their menu which are not available in Libis. Hubby's mind is set on their pancakes so I just ordered their Spanish Sardines Tempura.

I was craving for Scramble but it's not available that time since they ran out of ice so we just asked for a glass of water (without ice).




They also ran out of strawberry jam so instead of serving Mixed Berry Pancakes, they just served us Blueberry Pancakes.

Their plating is different as well.

After eating, we asked for our bill and I was surprised to see that there is a 10% service charge.

Overall, the place and food is so so. It's not what we expected and if ever we want to eat at Kanto Fresstyle again, we'll just go to their Libis branch.

Breakfast After Work at Kanto Freestyle Libis

Today, My office mates and I had breakfast at Kanto Freestyle. I've already been to this place a couple of times already but this is my first time to visit it after they renovated the place. They occupied the space that used to be a small bar and it's good that they are able to accommodate more customers now.

I noticed that they now offer the Pancake Platter for P170. I haven't tried that yet but based on the picture, I think the pancakes are too small so I still recommend the usual pancake that they offer.

While waiting for the food to be served (which took approx. 20 mins.), I took a picture of their updated menu:

Mommy Binky and I ordered Honey Garlic Chicken (P99) and we both loved it.

Hubby ordered Breaded Pork Chop (P95) that I wasn't able to taste but it looks good too.

Jason ordered Mixed Berry Pancakes (P99) and Pancakes with Chocnut and Goya Ganache (P99).

 After a few minutes, we're already done eating and we're very satisfied. The only downside is that it takes a while for them to prepare the food. But anyway, it's worth the wait. The next day, we ate at Kanto again but this time we tried their Kapitolyo Branch and here's what happened.
