"This bakery and cafe provides folks in the New Center area a welcoming space for coffee and baked goods inspired by owner/pastry chef Jonathan Peregrino’s Filipino American upbringing. Expect cookies and brownies infused with ube, a variety of pandesal — Filipino bread rolls — available with fillings like coconut or cream cheese topped with everything bagel seasoning, and a selection of savory entrees, such as longaniza biscuits and gravy, and adobo rice bowls. To drink, customers can find espresso drinks and coffee sourced from Craig’s Coffee in Midtown, as well as specialty beverages like coconut ube matcha and a refreshing drink using calamansi — a citrus fruit typical of the Philippines. The space features an open concept and seating for about 10 people." - Serena Maria Daniels
