🍰☕ Coffee Ana in Santo Tomas, Batangas ☕ 🍰
-Where Your Sweet Tooth Will Sign a Lease and Never Want to Leave-

Let me tell you about Coffee Ana, this charming little coffee haven tucked away in Santo Tomas, Batangas—a place so cozy, even your problems will take a break and sip a latte.

The moment you step inside, it feels like your stress gets tackled by a team of fluffy throw pillows and soft jazz music. The interior is Pinterest-board-meets-happy-vibes, complete with quirky mirrors giving you daily affirmations like “Start your day the Coffee Ana way” (yes, mirror—I will believe in myself after three slices of cake and a mocha latte).

Now let’s talk desserts—because WOW. Coffee Ana isn’t just a coffee shop; it’s a dessert dimension where every bite feels like a hug from your favorite lola who always feeds you too much at family reunions.

🧀 Cheesy Pizza
They said it was pizza, but I swear I saw the mozzarella performing a cheese pull so dramatic, it deserves its own teleserye. It’s gooey, melty, and unapologetically generous—like it was made by someone who asked themselves, “What if cheese… but more?” Pair it with their hot coffee and it’s basically a warm cuddle for your soul.

🍫 Fried Suman with Chocolate Dip
A true plot twist in the dessert world. This ain’t your lola’s suman—this one went to the city, got a makeover, and came back dipped in rich chocolate like it’s starring in a food commercial. Crispy on the outside, soft and sticky inside—this treat deserves its own spot in the dessert hall of fame.

🫐 Blueberry Cheesecake
Imagine your taste buds going on a romantic date. This cheesecake is creamy, tangy, and topped with a blueberry compote that tastes like it was picked by angels (or really hardworking locals, either way—DIVINE). The crust is just the right amount of crumbly, like it knows its place and doesn’t try to steal the spotlight.

🥕 Carrot Cake
This carrot cake is so moist, it practically whispers “I love you” with every bite. Packed with nuts and smothered in frosting, it’s the dessert version of your mom’s best hug. I didn’t know whether to eat it or write it a love letter.

But wait—there’s more than dessert! They’ve got all-day breakfast (hallelujah), hearty rice meals, pasta, fresh salads, sandwiches, burgers, and enough drink options to make you reconsider your entire Starbucks order history. Whether you’re a caffeine fiend, a dessert daredevil, or just someone avoiding your responsibilities for a bit, Coffee Ana has your back.

💡 Ambience?
Think modern-meets-homey, with just enough rattan and plants to make you feel like you’re in a chic café in Bali but without the plane ticket. It’s bright during the day, warm at night, and always Insta-ready.

So if you’re in Batangas and your sweet tooth starts acting like a drama queen, take it straight to Coffee Ana. You’ll leave full, happy, and possibly a little emotionally attached to their carrot cake. Just don’t say I didn’t warn you.

☕💖 Coffee Ana: Where the coffee is hot, the food is hotter, and your diet plans come to die—happily.

SEAFOODPALOOZA ALERT: 🦐🦞🌽
🎉 Indang’s 3rd Birthday Bash Edition! 🎉

If Poseidon had a party, it would still be jealous of what we whipped up last December 2024 for Indang’s 3rd birthday! Buckle up, seafood lovers—here comes the buttery, grilled madness:

🔥 THE MENU:
1. Buttered Shrimp, Scallops & Corn
Like a love triangle you actually want to be part of.
2. Grilled Lobsters & Crabs
So sexy, even the grill blushed. 🔥🦞
3. Bonus Side Dishes:
A.K.A. “just here so they don’t get fined.” Looking at you, corn.

🧈 Recipe (a.k.a. “Controlled Chaos in the Kitchen”)

For the Buttered Beauties: 🦐🌽🐚
• 1 kilo shrimp (preferably those who signed the waiver)
• 2 trays of scallops (still shy in their shells)
• 6 sweet corn cobs (chopped like your ex’s excuses)
• Butter (don’t be shy—this is not the time for restraint)
• Lots of garlic (minced like your patience)
• Salt & pepper to taste (plus a dash of drama)

Cooking Method:🧑🏻‍🍳
1. Butter in pan → garlic → shrimp do the sizzle dance.
2. Add scallops till they whisper “I’m done.”
3. Corn joins the pool party last. Butter splash included.
4. Plate like Picasso: no rules, just vibes.

For the Grilled Legends: 🦞🦀🌽
• Fresh lobsters & crabs (those who survived the group chat)
• Lemongrass, chili, onions, and whatever aromatics you found during a fridge raid
• More butter. Because obviously.
• A side of prayers (grilling crustaceans is an art AND a sport)

Cooking Method:🧑🏻‍🍳
1. Steam them lightly till they blush.
2. Throw them on the grill like they owe you money.
3. Baste with garlicky butter like it’s the sauce of truth.
4. Serve hot, messy, and proud.

🎉 Final Verdict:
Everyone was speechless. Mostly because their mouths were full of scallops and glory. Even Indang tried to blow a candle on a lobster claw. 10/10 birthday. Would seafood again.

Moral of the story: When in doubt, drown it in butter and fire it up. 🔥🧄🦐

A KARE-KARE FROM BUDDY’S THAT SLAPS HARDER THAN YOUR LOLA’S TSINELAS! 🥜🔥

OMG MGA KAPWA GUTOMINOS…
I just had Buddy’s Kare-Kare and let me tell you—this dish didn’t just feed me, it spiritually healed me. 😭 One bite and I forgot my WiFi password, my life problems, even my last heartbreak (well, almost).

It’s thick. It’s creamy. It’s that rich, peanut buttery lava of dreams—like Manny Pacquiao and your nanay teamed up to knock you out with flavor. The oxtail? Fall-off-the-bone levels. The veggies? Sobrang fresh, parang kagigising lang nila from a spa. The sauce? LASANG YAMAN, mga beshie. Kung pwede lang gawing lotion ‘to, I would.

🥄Buddy’s Kare-Kare “Recipe” (aka Lutong Nakakabaliw):

🛒 Ingredients:
• 1 kg beef (na mas juicy pa sa tsismis)
• 1 sachet love (joke lang, but legit may magic)
• Bagoong (because walang kare-kare kung walang patis sa steroids)
• Pechay, sitaw, eggplant (gulay for that fake-healthy vibe)
• Peanut butter (as in… DINAAN SA DAMDAMIN!)
• Annatto oil (pang-red carpet glow)
• Toasted rice powder (pang-thick ng sabaw AND thighs)

🔥 Cooking Method:
1. Pakuluan ang oxtail hanggang maging malambot… parang puso mong paulit-ulit nasasaktan pero bumabalik pa rin.
2. Gisa garlic & onions in annatto oil. Huwag tipirin ang feelings.
3. Add the oxtail, pour in peanut butter & rice powder like you’re manifesting abundance.
4. Ihalo ang gulay at sabayan ng background music na emotional—pang TikTok.
5. Serve with bagoong on the side na mas salty pa sa ex mo.

Final Verdict:
⭐⭐⭐⭐ 8/10. Would eat again even during a zombie apocalypse. Buddy’s Kare-Kare is not just food… it’s an emotional experience. 🧠💥

🔥 Slightly Honest Review of Buddy’s Sisig 🤭🔥

“Where your diet goes to die… happily.”

Oh sisig-lovers, gather ‘round — because Buddy’s Sisig just dropkicked my taste buds straight into a sizzling, pork-fat paradise. This dish doesn’t whisper flavor — it screams it like your tita at karaoke night after three Red Horses.

The moment it arrived at the table on that crackling hot plate, I knew I was in trouble. Not emotional trouble — cholesterol trouble. But oh, what a delicious way to go.

The pork? It’s so tender, juicy, and sinfully crispy in parts that you’d think it was massaged by angels and then baptized in garlic oil.
The egg? Sitting pretty on the side like a shy debutante, ready to be stirred in and bring creamy, yolky harmony to the madness.
The whole dish? A sizzling confession that says: “Yes, I’m bad for you. But aren’t I worth it?”

💡Funniest DIY Sisig Recipe (a.k.a. “Heart Attack in a Pan”)
Disclaimer: Not endorsed by any cardiologist, but 100% approved by your soul.

Ingredients:
• 1 pig’s face (yes, face – snout, ears, cheeks – the whole chubby shebang)
• 1 onion (to cry about your life choices later)
• 2 chilies (optional but recommended for drama)
• 1 egg (sunny-side up, because your mood won’t be after this meal)
• Soy sauce and calamansi (for a little zing-zing)
• Mayonnaise (because apparently we’ve given up)
• Chicharon (for that extra “who needs arteries” crunch)

Instructions:
1. Boil the pig face until tender — like your ex’s ego after a breakup.
2. Grill it until the skin gets crispy enough to reflect your deepest regrets.
3. Chop it like you’re mad at your boss. Add onions, chilies, and a whole existential crisis.
4. Sizzle everything on a hot plate. Add a splash of soy sauce, squeeze some calamansi, and for no scientific reason, throw in a generous dollop of mayo.
5. Crack an egg on the side. Stir it in if you’re feeling reckless. Top with chicharon because you clearly don’t care anymore.
6. Serve hot. Apologize to your arteries in advance.

Final Verdict:
If loving Buddy’s Sisig is wrong, I don’t wanna be right. 8.5/10 — would betray my diet again. 🐷💥🍳

🔥KARE-KARE KONTRA-LAWAY: A Home-Cooked Saga🔥

📍Live from Mommy Camille’s Kusina (a.k.a. our tiny kitchen that turns into a war zone every lunch hour)

Let’s get one thing clear: this Kare-Kare is not your ordinary ulam. It’s not just a stew. It’s an emotion. A commitment. A thick, peanut buttery hug from the ancestors. And oh boy, did it slap — harder than your Tita’s chismis about your love life.

🌈 THE VERDICT FROM THE RELATIVES:
👵 Lola: “Ay anak, ito ang Kare-Kare na mapapa-second rice ako kahit bawal sabi ni Doc!”
🔟/10 (and that’s saying a lot from someone who survived the Japanese war and three failed diets)

👴 Lolo: “Masarap nga, pero bakit walang bagoong sa tabi? Di ko alam kung anak kita o hindi!”
9/10 (minus 1 point for missing the magical pink bagoong)

🧑‍🦰 Cousin na mapili sa gulay: “Akala ko tofu curry, pero grabe, parang nagka-love life yung panlasa ko!”
8.5/10 (nagulat siya sa talong, pero kinain din hanggang huli)

👩‍🍳 You (the chef): “Nagtagumpay ako! And I only cried once during the process (it’s the onion’s fault pa!) Improvement!”

🥘 THE RECIPE: (a.k.a. the Chaotic Chronicles of Kare-Kare)

Ingredients:
• 1 kilo beef tripe (or ox tail kung feeling mayaman)
• 2 eggplants, chopped like your last text message to your ex
• String beans, cut with love (and mild frustration)
• Pechay or bok choy — for the illusion of health
• Peanut butter (go extra, because peanut is life)
• Ground rice (to make it thicc, like your crush’s calves)
• Bagoong (optional but highly required by all titas)
• Garlic, onions, and a bit of patience
• Water… for soup and for your inevitable emotional breakdown

How to Cook (in our chaotic-but-loving style):
1. Boil the beef until tender — or until it’s had more soak time than your laundry.
2. In another pan, sauté garlic and onions until they tell you, “We’re golden, chef!”
3. Add in your beef, and let it swim in peanut butter like it’s at a spa.
4. Pour in water and ground rice. Stir until it thickens like a teleserye plot.
5. Toss in your veggies, and let it simmer until they surrender.
6. Serve hot with rice, bagoong on the side, and a warning to whoever eats last: “Bahala ka sa tira-tira!”

🧂OVERALL RELATIVE-RATED SCORE:

9.1/10 — Certified Lutong Bahay Legend Status Achieved!

💬 BONUS COMMENT FROM TITA:

“Anak, next time ikaw na magluto sa fiesta ha? Para wala nang away sa kanto!”

Congratulations! You have officially become the Kare-Kare Queen/King/Legend. May your next batch be just as creamy, dreamy, and worthy of 5 extra cups of rice. 🍚🔥
