Kitchen of Cakes and Coffee ( SM City North EDSA )


Need to satisfy your caffeine cravings and your sweet tooth? The Kitchen of Cakes and Coffee will surely get your attention when you pass by the sky garden at SM City North EDSA. 


They offer a wide variety of cakes that you can choose from. You can also choose from their hot and cold beverages.


Their own version of French cheesecake, called My Best Cheesecake is soft and moist. It almost melts in your mouth without a very strong flavor. It costs 730 pesos or 100 pesos per slice. You can have it with fruit toppings for 830 pesos or 110 pesos per slice.


The Decadent is a moist chocolate cake with coffee pasty cream and chocolatey ganache on top. It's not as sweet as it looks. You can have it for 680 pesos or 90 pesos per slice.


The Montezuma is one of the chocolate drinks that they offer. You can have it hot for 105 pesos or cold for 115 pesos. It tastes like the regular cocoa drink which is bitter sweet. We had the iced version but I think they added just a few ice cubes or it just melted so fast because you can't consider it cold or warm, it's in between, like room temperature.

They also have a small space inside which can only accommodate 4 tables that seats 2 persons each. It's also warm inside. They have other tables outside if you want to have a little bit more space. The service is not that bad. The food is good. This is one of the restaurants that still needs a little bit more improvement before it can compete with the others.

Army Navy Burger & Burrito (UP Ayala Land Technohub)


This branch is located at the 2nd floor of the technohub building, and is open 24 hours a day. It has a small space inside but it does have tables outside, both at the front and the back to accommodate more customers.


Their Tortilla Chips is a good side dish and is served with a great tasting mayo and cheesy type of dip. For only 35 pesos, you can munch on it while waiting for your food.


Their Classic burger is still one of the best burgers in the market. Maybe it's because of the quarter pound beef patty that is so flavorful and juicy. It also comes in big servings and only costs 165 pesos. You also have the option to have 2 or 3 beef patties. Add ons are also available like, egg for 17 pesos, cheese/bacon for 30 pesos, jalapeño for 20 pesos and sauteed onions for 15 pesos. You can never go wrong with this burger.


The Chipotle Crispy Chicken Sandwich is made up of fried chicken fillet with chipotle pepper sauce topped with crispy onion rings and mayo on toasted sesame seed Kaiser bun. It also comes in big servings and costs 185 pesos. Like all of their other burgers, it is also freshly cooked and served hot. The chicken fillet is crispy on the outside but juicy on the inside.

Army Navy Burger and Burrito is definitely worth a try. Despite the small space that they provide, the good food that they serve at a reasonable price is enough reason to keep you coming back.
