Mom and Tina's

After the Krispy Kreme Kruffin and Pull-Apart, and the Kooky and Luscious Carrot Cake, I walked a couple of steps more and was directed to Mom and Tina's

With the carrot cake not being enough to satisfy me for the next day, I also bought Orange Mandarin Cupcake (P30.00) and Hershey's Brownie (P25.00) at Mom and Tina's.


The Orange Mandarin Cupcake was good and light. It also has a thin orange custard in between the icing and the cupcake. The cupcake base was not only moist and soft but it also has a milky taste to it.

The cupcake as a whole gave me a cheese ice cream vibe without the tang.


The Hershey's Brownie was too little for its price. It was also not fudgy but more of like a flourless chocolate cake in texture. With that said, what I only like in it were the big Hershey's chocolate chips, that that minute size has a lot of. I wouldn't mind buying one again just for the Hershey's chocolate chips.

Mom and Tina's Bakery Cafe

Back again at the Makati area I chanced upon the newly-opened Mom & Tina’s Bakery in Perea Street.


I always wanted to try their food but their Brgy Ugong branch was too far that I wasn’t able to. Good thing they opened somewhere accessible, like Makati.


Since they offer a lot of food, from starter to desserts, it was very hard to choose what to try first. After 10 minutes or so of looking at their menu & display cases and talking with their staff, I ordered the Chicken and Spinach Lasagna P125 and the Dark Toblerone Walnut Torte P90.



The Chicken and Spinach Lasagna is made of ground chicken cooked in cream sauce, sandwiched in between layers of spinach lasagna noodles. It is served with 2 pieces of Garlic Cheese Roll.


The chicken was so tender, the noodles were cooked al dente and the sauce was creamy and well-seasoned. It was a really good lasagna, the same goodness found in a Greenwich Lasagna. I would definitely order it again.


The garlic roll is like a garlic bread but with minimal amount of butter. I would love if it has more butter and a more prominent garlic taste.


The Dark Toblerone Walnut Torte is served on its original plastic container. It is made up of layers of meringue, chocolate cream, whipped cream, walnut and dark toblerone peaks. It is good for its price though not as good as the Toblerone Torte of Chelsea.


I also bought Bacon and Cheese Roll and Sausage Roll, both at P11 to try at home.




They smelled, looked and tasted like freshly baked pugon pandesal with fillings. Of the two, the sausage has more filling but the bacon and cheese tasted better.



Overall, the place is cozy & clean, the staff are friendly and accommodating, the service is fast and the food is more than good. I would definitely come back to try their other dishes.
