Rainy Cafe Day

Yesterday, my cousins, Bettina and Meann, and I went to this restaurant that's been getting good reviews through word of mouth and on social media. So, we wanted to check it out and have been planning and planning and yesterday, we finally had the time!

It is a quaint cafe located at M. M. Agoncillo St., Taal, Batangas City (just a short walk from the largest church in Asia, the Basilica of Saint Martin of Tours!).

I wrote "quaint" because the restaurant is just as picturesque on the outside as well as inside. Whitewashed walls and fences always get to me. The floral aroma inside, coming from a lighted scented candle, just gave me a feeling of bliss and oddly, hunger.

So we picked our table and looked at their menu, which was offering a whole lot of dishes from appetizers to rice meals, pasta dishes, yummy and mouthwatering desserts, hot and ice-blended coffee, tea, smoothies, and more! I wanted to feel full without over-eating (because with all the available dishes, it is quite impossible to not order a lot!). I ordered for a pesto chicken linguini and a white chocolate chips mug cake. My cousins ordered their picks and we ate heartily.

The service was good. We did not wait long for our foods which actually happens in other restos
(which actually SUCK). 

 Love this crystal chandelier, btw.

 The cafe was also full of charming quotes and sayings.

And because we originally planned to go there to have coffee, after eating our meals, we decided to stay in their back porch. I was pretty sure it was going to rain so a good coffee is a great idea!

To my awe, its back porch showcased a pool and a spiral staircase leading to an open area. The air was cool and the feeling was cheery. I could almost feel Christmas with my bff's!

We ordered our coffee -- cafe latte for me, cafe mocha for ate Bettina and hazelnut frap for ate Meann. Of course there were lots of story-telling and picture-taking in between our sips of coffee and I knew that it was one of our best days.

 Told you there is a pool.

My cousins, ate Bettina and ate Meann, which are also my BFF's!

 A birdless birdhouse.

I guess my latte design was a flower and its leafy stem? I'll take it! :)

Yes! It's starting to rain.

 In another note, this was what I wore yesterday if you're interested. I've seen it from a boutique and I just can't help myself from buying it because duhh.. a rainbow and a cloud on the collar!

There were also colorful droplets of rain printed on the shirt and I felt like it's gonna be matchy with the weather.

The bill is put in these cute colorful tin buckets and the cream and sugar on little Mason jars.

This is how Cafe G looked from outside.

It was a blissful experience within this establishment and I would definitely love to come back. :)
