WHEN an establishment or product has the word “green” attached to it, what comes to one’s mind? Organic? Vegan? The word “green” does not only mean organic but it also means the color of life, freshness, energy, growth, safety and nature.
Just like the unique cafe nestled on the second floor of Times Square Talamban, Green House Coffee and Dessert can refresh one’s senses because of its set-up—from its interior with wood-like walls, great yellow lighting that is very relaxing, tables and chairs, plant decors, and of course, its luscious food and drinks. It’s like one is eating and drinking outdoors but is actually indoors.
Aiming to give a home and comfort zone to every Cebuano, Green House Coffee and Dessert serves a wide range of food and drinks from its satisfying all-day-breakfast meals served with house blended coffee or tea to start one’s day, pleasurable desserts to brighten one’s mood, to its appetizing sandwiches to top off the day.
Aside from providing a home, it also allows its customers to travel to other countries through serving the following specialties: Cafe Saigon, a Vietnamese specialty coffee using ground dark roast Vietnamese-grown coffee with a small metal drip filter served with sweetened condensed milk; Cafe Oeuf, inspired by a Vietnamese drink prepared with double espresso and creamy egg foam; Kaya, a Malaysian coconut egg and jam sandwich; and Croque Monsieur, inspired by a French butter toast made with pan fried ham, melted mozzarella cheese and parmesan cheese.
One should also try its Bomb Espresso, Matcha Egg Waffle with Red Bean and Vanilla Ice Cream, and Hot Cake with Mixed Fresh Fruits. One can also order a whole cheese cake with the flavors of Blueberry, Matcha, Japanese and New York and crepe cakes with the flavors of Mango, Pandan, Strawberry and Matcha.
For a better dining experience, one may also enjoy a delightful and affordable Asian Fusion cuisine because on the other side of Green House Coffee and Dessert is Munch Bistro, an Asian Fusion Restaurant with an interior showcasing Hong Kong’s most popular films.
Its Linguine with Sauteed Shrimp in Tasty and Spicy Taste, Golden Squid, Fried Chicken with Tasty Shrimp Chili Sauce, and its Marinated Sliced Pork with Grilled Mozarella in Giant Bun with Potato Wedges are among the best sellers. Kids Specials are also available for the kids and kids at heart.
Green House Coffee and Desserts, and Munch Bistro are open every day from 9 a.m. until 10 p.m. to satisfy one’s cravings. Indeed, these places offer new opportunities for Cebuanos like breaking the usual cafe setting and trying out other cuisine and specialties.
