The Way We Ate - Lugang Cafe

By She Said

What comes after all that holiday shopping? More shopping! she said was blessed to receive some cash gifts from family for Christmas and wanted to check off a few things from her Christmas wishlist. So off we went to SM Mall of Asia to indulge her with some retail therapy. Good thing I'm not paying this time!

I've been wanting to try Lugang Cafe in Greenhills for the longest time but I've never had a chance to since I live in the south- and if ever I happen to be around that area, it is for the sole purpose of visiting my 94 year old lola.

I'm so glad that Lugang Cafe now has a branch in Mall of Asia. From the famed Bellagio Group of Restaurants, Lugang Cafe in Manila is the first branch to be set up outside of China. Serving authentic Taiwanese cuisine, they have garnered recognition and is listed as one of  Philippine Tatler's 100 Best Restaurants for 2012.

The truth is, she said ended up not buying anything! But we had so much fun window shopping, trying on clothes, laughing and eating! Another perfect mother-daughter bonding experience for us :)
