Chocolate Kiss!

Day 12 » A photo of your favorite place to eat.

This is not my favorite restaurant because they serve the best food, nor because it is the coziest or prettiest place. I think Chocolate Kiss became my favorite restaurant because of the number of memories i have of this place.

I lived in Molave Residence Hall for 4 years during college. And when dorm food gets really really bad and we have some money to spare, we would usually find ourselves in the neighboring 'Bahay ng Alumni' (which is not a house, but a building), eating at Chocolate Kiss. Given our little student allowances, eating at Chocolate Kiss was considered fine dining since it would usually cost us 200-250 pesos to eat there. But we'd hang out there a lot - even if just to drink bottomless iced tea, or eat cake, or sing with the pianist, or talk.

Given that the nearest branch is in Quezon City, it's been a year and half since my last visit. I went there to have two of my favorite things. First, the bottomless iced tea. As you can see here, i'm greatly enjoying it.

They serve the honey separately, so you can control how sweet you want it to be.

Second, the chocolate chip cheesecake. This is the very first cheesecake that i've had. Before this, i thought cheesecake only comes in 2 flavors - strawberry and blueberry, both of which i don't like.

As i said, their food may not be the best. But they really do serve some good stuff. So i think you won't regret the visit -- even if it's to a far away place like Quezon City. :D
