What I ordered & my thoughts:

• Prosciutto E Funghi (₱499 for 9“): Featuring their signature crust made from a traditional sourdough starter with over 120 years of history. Compared to the heavy, standard American crusts commonly found on the market, this one has way more chew, a beautifully charred aroma from the oven, and a perfect crispy-on-the-outside, soft-on-the-inside texture. The pizza is generously loaded with a great variety of mushrooms that pair wonderfully with the savory ham, creating rich layers of flavor. However, due to the sourdough fermentation, the sour notes are quite prominent and sharp, it really comes down to your personal preference for tangy flavors!

• Lasagna (₱379): The fresh, handmade pasta sheets are absolute perfection. Even after absorbing all the rich sauce, the lasagna retains distinct, well-defined layers and maintains an amazing, springy bite.

• Gelato (₱220): The Belgium Dark Chocolate flavor is incredibly rich, avoiding that overly sweet, artificial factory-made taste. The Cream Cheese flavor is equally potent; you can tell they use real cream cheese. Getting a generous 100g portion at this price point offers fantastic value for money.

Overall experience:

• The shop is located right next to a busy intersection and has no dedicated parking spaces. There are only two small tables set up out front, making it vibe mostly like a grab-and-go spot. However, considering they serve fresh out of the oven pizza and handmade pasta, I really wish they had proper indoor dine-in seating so customers could enjoy these dishes at their absolute freshest.

• The dessert display cabinet is highly eye-catching. Sadly, since I was ordering to-go this time, I couldn't try their classic Tiramisu, but the Gelato was absolutely phenomenal. I will definitely be back just for the desserts!

My review:

Finding sourdough pizza is quite rare in Metro Manila. It offers a highly unique flavor profile with the added benefit of being easier on the stomach. For anyone looking to indulge in pizza without the heavy guilt of high calories, this health-conscious angle makes it an excellent and refreshing culinary trial. Combined with their meticulously crafted artisanal desserts, even just catching a glimpse of their pastry fridge while passing by will tempt you. Don't skip this hidden gem next time you happen to pass by the area!

What I ordered & my thoughts:

• 100g Burger (₱129+ ₱30 for extra veggies) and Hungarian Burger (₱129): The portions are still pretty good. The buns are nicely toasted with crispy edges and generously topped with sesame seeds as always. Unfortunately, the patties weren't served piping hot this time and turned out a bit dry. Compared to my amazing first visit, the food this time around just fell a little bit short of that standard.

• Taco BBQ  Fries (₱125): This was the real surprise of the meal! It came out fresh and hot thick-cut fries tossed with taco meat that added a really unique, flavorful punch.

• Coke (₱35 small bottle)

Overall experience:

• This hidden neighborhood gem is handled by an Ate who serves as both the cashier and cook. Her bright, welcoming smile instantly puts you at ease, though because she handles the entire shop alone, consistency can be a bit tricky. There was a noticeable difference in quality between this visit and my last.

• The menu is massive. It clearly lists the ingredients and sauces included in each burger, making it easy to order. Plus, the prices are friendly, and the portions are great.

• The shop is also full of love and home to cats. I saw the same cat pop up during both of my visits; it is very well-behaved and won't bother customers while they are eating.

My review:

A lovely, cozy neighborhood burger spot! On both of my visits, I saw neighbors stopping by. The sweet Ate at the shop always greets customers with the warmest, most welcoming smile. If you happen to be in the area and spot that bright yellow little shop from afar, it’s well worth stopping by for a casual bite to give it a try.

What I ordered & my thoughts:

• Souvlaki Platter For 4 (₱1,795): This was the owner’s top recommendation, and it did not disappoint! It comes with two kinds of salad, flavorful rice and flesh pita.

  • The Grilled Meats: The absolute highlight of the platter is the assortment of grilled pork, beef, lamb, and keftedes (meatballs) skewers. The lamb is an absolute must-try; it has that distinct, rich lamb flavor without any gamey taste, and it is grilled to absolute perfection.

  • Karpouzi me feta (Watermelon Feta Salad): It is an incredibly unique and surprising combination! The crisp, hydrating sweetness of the watermelon paired with the savory, salty kick of the feta cheese makes it so refreshing.

  • Fresh Pita & House-Made Dips: It served hot and fresh to the table. The pillowy pita bread is so good that we couldn't get enough of it just dipping it into their wonderful homemade sauces.

• Melitzanosalata (₱280): A smoky, house-made roasted eggplant dip that reminds me a bit of local grilled eggplant dishes.

• Patates Tiganites (₱280): These are house-made, thick-cut Greek fries fried to a perfect golden crisp. They elevate simple french fries to a whole new level by topping them with savory feta cheese, giving them a wonderful flavor boost.

Overall experience:

• I stumbled upon this restaurant entirely by accident. While the location is a bit tucked away, parking is very convenient. The owner, Wahlene, runs this place with so much heart, from the vibrant blue-and-white decor down to the smallest detail like the table coasters, it is bursting with authentic Greek charm.

• The beautifully illustrated menu makes ordering easy, and the owner gives honest, excellent recommendations. Every dish arrived fresh, piping hot, and beautifully highlighted by their incredible house-made olive oil. The portions are perfect too; our group of four finished everything completely!

My review:

Even though the drive here was a bit long for us, the entire dining experience made the trip absolutely worth it. This is a passionate, small restaurant that refuses to compromise on serving authentic Greek flavors. We felt so lucky to enjoy such authentic Greek cooking, and we will definitely be back!
