Note: This restaurant is already closed.
Food and books, two things that I love. That is why a cafe inside a bookstore is heaven, like Press Cafe located inside Fully Booked in Promenade.
I love how this cafe used books to decorate its interiors. This is something I would love to do in my own future home. :)
Like any meal with Mr. B, we started with a salad. We ordered the Chef's Salad (Php 205), which changes every month.
Chef's Salad |
The salad we had has lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes, walnuts, and bleu cheese. I liked the touch of bleu cheese in the salad, however, Mr. B wasn't so amused with this kind of cheese.
We also had Spanish Omelette (Php 165) and Vegetarian Sandwich (Php 210).
Spanish Omelette |
Forever a fan of breakfast dishes, I love that the Spanish Omelette was generously served with mozzarella, though I would love it more if there were more bell pepper and tomato added to it.
Vegetarian Sandwich |
The health-conscious Mr. B opted for a Vegetarian Sandwich, which has roasted pepper, eggplant, zucchini, tomato jam, mozzarella, and pesto. It was served with thick-cut fries. It was surprisingly delicious and filling. I wouldn't mind having this sandwich again. :)
I love how simple yet classy the dishes we had in Press Cafe. It got me intrigued with their other entrees like the rib eye steak, burgers, and many more. The service was excellent and the ambiance is very peaceful. Should you want to eat and read a book at peace, this is the place that you should visit.

This has always been a dream of mine, to have a cafe that doubles as a bookstore/library. Needless to say, I will find a way to visit this one.
