BEST. SCALLOP. PASTA. IN. METRO. MANILA. I'd say it louder if I could. Hands down. A few weeks later and I'm still pleasantly buzzing with thoughts of their pasta. It's unique, generous and transformative. I've never had anything quite like it. The scallops were seared perfectly and tasted fresh and juicy. They were very generous with the meat. It's not very clear in the photo but there's A LOT of shredded meat in between the pasta threads. But what blew my mind the most was the different textures of the pasta noodles. It's like they put them in at 3 20 second intervals so you get different levels of al dente-ness but it works. Wow. Wow. Wow. Only sad part is they're too far away.

Popped in for a cup of coffee and was disappointed that most of their signatures were unavailable. Wanted to try the sakura latte but that was out. Settled for a chai latte while my companion had their Spanish Latte. We enjoyed our drinks. The only annoying thing were the workers in the kitchen and the cashier. The space is small and they were screaming at each other as if they were in a construction site. No wonder everyone else left immediately upon getting their drinks. I recommend delivery next time. The menu is very curious.
