Amo Yamie Crib: A year after

It's nice to be back! 

This was how I felt setting my feet again last week inside Amo Yamie Crib, that hip and cool food and movie house at the University Belt in Manila. It was also around this time of the year when I was there with my daughter in 2014, when this place was only probably less than two weeks old. And boy, was I impressed! The place is  bigger - much bigger, now also occupying the next three units beside it on the second floor of Gordi Plaza Building on Legarda St., near the corner of C.M. Recto. The menu hadn't changed much, though, from a year ago. But I was happy to try some of their food and drink offers that I didn't get to taste before. I was at Amo Yamie Crib 

with a younger crowd - two of my kids and their friends. 

We had:

Mini bites (four mini burgers) and fries, P99.

Clubhouse sandwich with fries, P95.

Nachos, P89.

Red Velvet Cheesecake Flower Pot, P89

Blueberry cheesecake, P69.

Red Riding Hood (red velvet cheesecake frappe), P139.

Oreo & Juliet, P129.

Mocha Wish, P109.

Cafe Latte, P75.

What we loved? The mini-burgers, fries, nachos and our drinks. Yummy! The clubhouse sandwich was also good but not something to rave about, likewise our desserts - the flower pot red velvet cake and blueberry cheesecake. But as you can see in the pictures, this place is unique and the ambiance makes this place so worth the trip especially if you're coming from another city and even on a rainy day. 
The "cribs" make a perfect hang-out place for friends for hours of sharing stories and laughter. The live performance by a singer was something also new to me - I think they didn't have this before - and surely, added more fun. One of the crew members told us any customer 
could join in the singing. 
And I still haven't told you, Amo Yamie is a movie house, too. Any group of people may rent one room for around P500 for up to three hours to watch a movie - with unlimited popcorn for everyone! Sounds nice for a real bonding moment with the whole family or barkada, right? 
Well, if those won't make you head over to Amo Yamie Crib right now, I don't know what will. Haha! By the way, another good thing is about to happen. Another Amo Yamie Crib is opening soon in Manila, this time on Espana Blvd. Aren't we Manilans lucky? Hehe..
Well, that's all for now, folks! 
Happy eating!  

Lovin' a wicked thing

The past two Saturdays brought me and my daughter to one and the same foodie place, only in two different locations. That's how good food is at The Wicked Waffle - you just can't get enough! The other week, we were at the P. Campa branch near Espana Blvd. in Manila just before going to church. Yesterday, we were at the SM Manila after worship service. 

I learned they've opened a branch in Tagaytay. I hope we could visit it too. :) Anyway, we love their waffles and rice toppings. Their spicy tinapa to me is heaven-sent! Smoked fish is a favorite of mine and The Wicked Waffle's is yummy with the plus point of being hot and spicy. Love, love, love! My daughter, on the other hand, loves their beef tapa. 
She ordered the same thing on two occasions. I tried it and loved it too.  
The meat is tender and flavorful, with the right blend of spices. 

Take a look at what we had:

Sirloin Tapa Bowl, P99. 

Spicy Tinapa Bowl, P99. 

Blueberry Cheesecake Waffle Sundae, P200. 

Americano coffee, P50. 

Iced tea that came with our Niner Bowls 

                                               Inside The Wicked Waffle - P. Campa St., Manila

Last Saturday, we were here at SM Manila

We had:

Peppermint Mocha Java, P100 

Blueberry Frappe, P100.  

Berry Banana Split Waffle Sundae, P180.

Sirloin Tapa again for my daughter 

For me, Sausage and Cheese Waffle, P110.

We so enjoyed waffles here, especially the ones with ice cream. Very sinful indeed for those who like me, are watching their sugar intake. I only ate a little, not even one-fourth. Sob, sob..Their frappes are yummy as well. I especially liked my Peppermint Mocha Java but my daughter didn't, saying it was like drinking toothpaste. Hahaha! Well, she loved her own Blueberry Frappe. There's one thing I did not enjoy eating, though - the sausage in my waffle. it was like longganisa that's not even good. Anyway, The Wicked Waffle offers quite a lot - from rice meals to pasta, to omelettes, apart from their waffles. Also, we loved the ambiance in both the SM Manila and P. Campa stores. The interiors are clean and the decors and colors are chic and vibrant, making it appealing to both the young and the young-at-heart. I would definitely recommend that you visit The Wicked Waffle for breakfast 

that you could have any time of the day. 

Happy eating!

(Note: Both branches are now permanently closed)
