Valentine Food at Milky and Sunny

Is Valentine's Day overrated? I would have to say yes AND no. Yes, because I'm not a hopelessly romantic person. No, because I'm still after all a girl (okay, woman) and I want to be wined and dined on special occasions such as V-Day. I just don't like Valentine promos that are too "cheesy" and predictable. Some promos are just so "in your face" and that's what I don't like.

Look at Milky and Sunny's Valentine set-up

And that's about it. Really simple and sweet but straightforward. Just the way I like it.

Here are their offerings for the month of February

Just like their set-up, these treats are not over-the-top and the presentation is exactly the way you see it in the photo, which is a huge plus for me. (I just hate it when the food looks so good on the menu and then a lot less appetizing when it's actually in front of you) On the right is the Strawberry Pancake with Toblerone Sauce (P180.00) and on the left, Mozzarella and Strawberry French Toast (P160.00).

Here are my own photos, just to show you what they actually look like on the plate. Not bad huh??

I tried both yesterday but had more of the Mozzarella and Strawberry French Toast. Both are highly-recommended! I was trying to imagine what mozzarella and strawberries would taste like together. I thought the combination was kind of strange at first but it surely didn't disappoint. Too bad these are only available this month.

Come dinner time (yes, our gang hangs out here a lot and for long periods LOL!), I made a huge leap. From my usual Beef Tapa, one of their best-sellers and my super duper favorite, this time I had Tocino. My friends have been raving about it so without thinking about it much, it's what I had for a change.

Two thumbs up!!! I would have to say, I will alternate these two from now on. I can't ever completely turn my back on the Beef Tapa because that's to die for too.

Run over to Milky and Sunny at #9 East Capitol Drive Kapitolyo, Pasig

They're open from Monday to Sunday, 7am to 10pm

Have a restful weekend, everyone!!!

Milky and Sunny : Feels Like Home

This is (to say the least) a long overdue post. I've been to Milky and Sunny a few times since it opened. It's amazing to see how this new place has become so popular since their first day. Thanks to Facebook and Twitter, it's now probably the most popular food joint in the Kapitolyo, Pasig area.

I'm sorry if these pictures disappoint. I didn't have my Lumix GF2 with me the times I was there so I had to make do with my old BB Torch's camera. These are just some of the food items in their menu that I've personally tried

Bananarama Pancakes, P140.00

I wish I had enough words to describe how much I enjoyed this (despite the fact that I remember us having this as a finale to our meal). I'm a fan of anything that's banana and peanut butter combined. I don't exactly know what made it crunchy in some parts but I totally enjoyed it!

Eggs Benedict, P150.00

Seriously.. this is so much goodness packed into a meal. Anissa ordered this because my girls are egg-lovers. After finishing the order, she didn't have any room left to try anything else. I say WIN!

Red and Green Bell Pepper, Potatoes and Sausage Omelette P130.00

Are you believing how friendly the prices are so far?

This was really good too.

Choco Marble Warble, P120.00

My friend's not-so-little girl ordered this so I didn't get to try it. But I trust a kid when she says it's really yummy!

Breakfast Enchiladas P200.00

Blame me for being a bottomless pit and not even knowing what goes into my mouth. I don't and can't remember what's inside the enchiladas.

Corned Beef Rice and Egg Meal P120.00

If you're hungrier than you initially thought, you can also choose more items to go with your order and get one of their Big Breakfast Plates for P250.00

(includes hash potatoes other than what you see in the picture)

Bacon Tostadas, P100.00

Y-U-M-M-Y

We had two orders of this!

Tapa Rice and Egg Meal, P160

Naturally, I had to leave the best for last

I am a true blue Beef Tapa lover so I couldn't pass on the chance to try this

Please don't be fooled, the Tapa looks minimal in the pic because I had been eating it when I realized I hadn't taken a photo. The tapa serving is more generous than what you see.

I keep going back for this!

These next few photos will show you why the place feels like home

(photos are from Milky & Sunny's Facebook page)

I promise to take more photos with my Lumix next time I visit the place. I can't wait to try out the other stuff I've only seen in pictures so far.
