Lugang Cafe (desserts worth sharing and trying)



About the food:

The other day, we have reached a new hot temperature of 36 degrees Celsius. Almost anywhere you go, you can inhale the hot air vapors. To make ourselves more comfortable, it's a good idea to have some cool treats, like the ones I tried in Lugang Cafe.

First of all, don't be deceived by its name. It does not serve just coffee or sandwiches. They offer a full range of contemporary Chinese cuisine. Their food offerings are almost incomparable to what is offered by the more traditional Chinese restaurants we have. But what really made me thrilled was that they served special desserts, and its even presented on a separate menu. 

The picture above are pearls with shaved ice and coconut milk, which is topped with fresh fruits and ice cream. This is good for sharing. 






Below is the pudding with mango slices and puree over shaved ice with pearls. This is also great for sharing and tastes good too.













Where to buy and how much:


Lugang Cafe is located at 116 Connecticut St., Northeast Greenhills,San Juan. They open around 11am and it's best to arrive early since the place gets packed really fast. The desserts above costs in the range of PHP250 each. But if you want to eat a full meal there, you'll need a budget of at least PHP500 per pax.




Rating:  9.0/10

If you want to try a different kind of Chinese cuisine, then Lugang Cafe is worth trying.
