🌄 BARAKO CAFÉ – A Hidden Gem in Dharamshala ☕️🍞✨
During our trip sa Dharamshala, my husband and I went to this cozy and charming café — Barako Café, proudly owned by a Filipina! 🇵🇭💛
Pagpasok pa lang namin, ramdam na agad yung warm at welcoming vibes ng lugar. The ambiance is so relaxing and unique, may view ng ice-covered mountains, malamig ang hangin, at perfect spot talaga para mag-coffee at mag-unwind.
We tried their, lemon cheese cake, chocolate cake, sourdough bread, and grabe, ang sarap! Yung Sourdough bread is Soft sa loob, crispy sa labas, at fresh na fresh. Meron din silang iba’t ibang klase ng cookies at cakes, lahat super tasty at freshly baked. My husband really loved his cappuccino ☕️, sabi niya “ang sarap, perfect sa lamig ng weather. And what I like is ginger lemon tea and tibetan buttermilk tea. 😋
Isa pa sa nagustuhan namin is yung atmosphere, simple, humble, and very homey. The owner Ate cherry and Kuya (her husband) is very humble and kind, at super approachable ng staff, kaya ang gaan sa feeling habang kumakain. May smoking area din sa labas kung gusto mo mag-relax habang tinitingnan yung mountain view.
If you’re planning to visit Dharamshala or McLeod Ganj, don’t miss this place! Hindi lang masarap ang food and coffee, but you’ll also feel the warmth and passion behind this Filipino-owned café. 💛
