Boulangerie22 is one of the places I like having my coffee at when I'm running errands or shopping at SM City San Lazaro. It's a simple, no-fuss cafe and bakeshop with quite a short list of offers. Their pastas are really good, though, as well as their
assortment of breads and of course, coffee.

Recently, I found out Boulangerie22 also has a store at SM City Sta. Mesa and was impressed by its spaciousness compared to the San Lazaro branch. This one's not just much bigger but also sleeker with a more homey ambiance. What surprised me more was that Boulangerie now offers the Vietnamese sandwich called Banh mi. I just got to try it! So I hurried with my shopping and strutted back for a banh mi and cup of joe.
Spicy Korean Pork banh mi, P149.
The filling is really spicy, and yummy too! Some veggies provide additional flavors and surely, much needed nutrients. And I loved that the baguette is fresh, it's firm but soft enough to enjoy this banh mi as a filling meal in itself. The sandwich is huge,
I only ate half of it.

Meanwhile, these are what I, together with my youngest child, had one time at Boulangerie-SM San Lazaro:
Truffle Fettuccine Alfredo, P129.
Yum! I loved the creaminess of
this. Bits of bacon lent so much flavor too!
Italian Spaghetti Bolognese, P149.
My (not so) little boy loved his pasta as well. I liked that it leaned more on the Italian side rather than Pinoy -- meaning, it's not sweet!
Hungarian Sausage Mozzarella Bread, P59.
Japanese Heart Chocolate Strip Cookie, P12.
Caffe Americano, P79.
Loved everything on the tray..soft bread, strong coffee, sweet cookie, the perfect antidote to weariness due to shopping. Haha!
Matcha Creme Frappe, P99.
I knew my boy would order this. He's an avid green tea fan and
finished this in no time.

Inside Boulangerie22 at SM City Sta. Mesa
Boulangerie 22 is one great idea when you're running low on caffeine (and carbs, dahleens!). Get your much needed cup o' joe in between shopping or after the movies, or when you're wanting to work on your gadget whilst sipping (I like doing my writings while filling on coffee and bread or pasta). They have 13 locations
in Metro Manila so find one year you.
Happy eating!
