I super love this branch. It's almost always empty, always plays relaxing, lounge music, friendly staff, and that iconic bay view overlooking on the other side of the Dewey Boulevard. Priceless.
This place is so relaxing; calmingmusic, soft sunlight glaring through the glass walls, earthy interiors, and of course, the priceless view of Manila Bay in a still, yet naturally animated state.
This is by far my most favorite CBTL branch. It's very bright and somehow "isolated" before heading out to the real world where the heat and stress get to you instantly. This is the ultimate escape ;p
Ensaymada had slightly toasted and melted cheese on top that was definitely the best part but the inner portions of the pastry were mostly dry. A more moist texture would've been perfect.
