Pink Guava. It's not a fruit, it's a foodie place. How cute. This was my first thought when I saw Pink Guava for the first time on Quezon Avenue on my way to work maybe two years ago. Last year (or was it 2012?) , my youngest son and I went there but found out they only served an assortment of hot and cold drinks. However, my kid wanted something to eat so out we went. But months later, I was happy to know they had started serving food - pastas, rice meals and cakes. Sadly, I couldn't find an opportunity to eat there...till yesterday. I had business to transact at nearby Insular Life and so had lunch at Pink Guava afterward, together with my daughter.
These were our orders:
Pork Sesame Oyster, P119. My daughter loved this. It's breaded pork poured over with sweet-salty sesame-oyster sauce. |
Chix and Chips, P65. I ate only this and a huge chunk of the cake because I was still feeling full from breakfast. Fried bite-sized chicken and potato chips. Great for nibbling! |
Almond cake, P115. We forgot the exact name of this cake and only remembered the first word - almond. Soft and moist and just a bit sweet, making me not too guilty for indulging. Haha! |
Cappuccino, 8 oz, P75. It's also available in two bigger sizes. I loved my coffee! It was very frothy and had just the right kick. |
Guava Lychee juice, P120. My daughter so loved this. Unique was how she described it. |
Cute interiors! I love pink..next to purple. |
This is our table and that's my daughter looking so relaxed with her Guava-Lychee drink. |
The lamp hanging over our table. Isn't it pretty? |
I think this is the one with cinnamon. I regret not having ordered this. Next time! |
Or maybe this is the one with cinnamon. Haha! What poor memory I have. |
Pink Guava is on Quezon Ave in QC. If you're coming from Welcome Rotonda going toward QC Memorial Circle, it's on your right and comes after National Bookstore.
I say this is one place that's perfect for having a nice chat with a friend or even just chillin' out alone . The place has simple but cute and relaxing interiors. The drink menu is quite extensive and impressive. The food menu is simple and contains not quite a lot but I guess there's a good side to it - it saves you from the stress of indecision because it's easier to make a choice. Haha! There's only a few (three or four) pasta dishes and some rice meals plus two pica-pica - Chix. and Chips and Fish and Chips, then the cakes and pastries. But my daughter liked it there so much, I guess, that she was telling me last night she wanted to eat there again.
Well, hope to see you guys there!
