Date With Eric

Eric Kayser is my family's current favorite pit stop whenever we go to Powerplant Mall. It is located at the lower ground floor just beside the MarketPlace Cafe.


FOOD FINDS: Eric Kayser's Salted Caramel Eclair

We happen to visit Powerplant Mall after avoiding the place last December due to traffic and was surprised to discover that Eric Kayser was already open. Maison Kayser turned traditional bread into a work of art. He opened his first store in 1996 in Paris and has expanded to major cities around the globe including Hong Kong, Japan, and now in Manila.


The store in Powerplant Mall is located beside Rustan's Marketplace. I would have passed it by if not for the big orange sign. That's when I saw the eclairs!


It was already passed 7pm when we saw the shop so most of the breads were sold out already.


We were going to watch a movie so daughter chose the chocolate croissant (I think she got the dark chocolate one), and I got the dark chocolate cookie for hubby. The cookie was just okay but daughter was singing praised about the chocolate croissant. I had a tiny bite and it was good. The cookie and croissant costs P85 each.


Salted Caramel Eclair. This is mine, all-mine! lol .. Ate this at home. Really, really good and its worth the P120 price. Note to self: go back to Powerplant asap and hoard salted caramel eclairs. :D



PS. The store is still on its soft opening so they're still fixing things there. But that's okay since you'll be after the cookies, eclairs, breads anyway. :)

FOOD FINDS: Bronuts

We haven't been frequenting Power Plant Mall lately so I'm about a decade late when it comes to Bronuts but I'm glad that daughter and I got to try it last week. Of course, our trip to the mall won't be complete without going to Fully Booked. Daughter's been crazy over "Manga" lately and she's starting to collect Pandora Hearts.

But let's talk about Bronuts first. They can be found at the Baker's Dozen in Power Plant Mall somewhere near Mercury Drug and McDonald's. They don't sell anything except Bronuts. Well, a bronut is a donut shaped layers of flaky sweet dough, coated and filled with flavorful treats. Got that from their FB Page. Also, I was a bit apprehensive because I've heard about the long lines and the out-of-stock sign. Luckily, the shelves are still half full when we went there.

Belgian Chocolate. This is my favorite. Well, anything chocolate (most especially Belgian chocolate) is a sure winner for me. Also, I like that its chewy and not really flaky and oily. It has a generous coating of chocolate too. And I love the cream filling because its not that sweet but just right. As for the toffee bits on top, its not love at first bite.


Shi Lin

Daughter and I just included this on our list of favorite restaurants. Not only is the food great, but the place is nice also (sorry, forgot to take pic of the resto).  Also, and the best part about Shi Lin, prices are not heavy on the pocket. Yey! :)


Sugar Overload


Daughter and I had fun with the Sweet Tooth Fairy today. This is a great bonding activity with your kid or anyone who is a kid-at-heart. :)

First stop was at the Made In Candy store. At first glance, these cute candies look like cute erasers with yummy scents. But it has yummy flavors as well. I love the colors and the different designs of the candies.




Next stop was at Morelli's. We had a blast trying out some flavors before settling on Caramel Dulce de Leche. So creamy! And well, we just love "caramel-y" flavors on anything.



French Vanilla and Caramel Dulce de Leche. More scoops please!




Chicago Popcorn. And because we are still craving for sugar, our feet lead us to Bacchus Epicerie to buy popcorn.



Royce. Last stop was at the Royce counter. Hmmmm ... what to buy, what to buy? ;)


Went home with rum raisin and nama. Happy happy joy joy. :D
13's A Dozen

I've been a fan of Baker's Dozen  for years now and I'm glad that they're back at the Power Plant Mall. This time however, they're located at the Archeology Main Hall. Much more convenient for shoppers, I think. And luckily, daughter's exam week ends tomorrow so we're planning a visit soon. I love the goodies there! :)




I took some lovely photos of Baker's Dozen before. Please check my previous blog entry.
Pepper Lunch


I love eating at Pepper Lunch because the food here is served on a hot plate and my tummy likes warm food. On the other hand, there's a 100% chance that you'll smell like food after dining here so its best to spritz some cologne or perfume after eating.



Seafood. This is hubby's choice.




Beef. Mine, all mine!

Kulinarya



This resto is one of the few that I like to frequent especially if we happen to be in Powerplant Mall. Food here is L O V E.


Salmon & Capers Pizza


Baked Fish







Cakes Galore At Powerplant Mall







We've been enjoying the cakes and pastries exhibit for the past 2 Christmas season now and I was surprised to see the cake sellers in Powerplant the week before Valentine's Day. Luckily, my friend and I got to taste most of the yummy treats being offered there. Now which one should I buy??
