Coffee and make up

16:44 , , , , , , 3 Comments

I love my Mocha. I don't drink plain coffee but I love drinks with coffee in it. So far, my favorite mocha is the one of Starbucks' because my taste buds don't find anything weird when I take a sip - unless the barista got my drink wrong.


Last week, I went to Serendra to meet up with Guia for a free make up workshop that I happened to stumble upon on Boy Kuripot's blog ( I love how he posts contests and workshops! ). While waiting for Guia and for the time, I went around Serendra looking for a coffee shop that I know not of - I didn't want to go to Starbucks, Seattle's Best or Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf since I always go to these places. Then, I came across Echo Cafe:

Mocha P85
The place was cute, they had a small cafe inside a small shop. I sat down in the middle of organic products and it felt quite peaceful since it was a small place, there wasn't much noise. I ordered myself a cup of their mocha and when it arrived, I thought that it was cute, with the artsy fartsy presentation of their drink. I took my first sip and.. boy was I disappointed. I thought that there was a thin layer or foam so that the barista would be able to doodle on it but NO. My cup of mocha was composed of almost 1/2 foam and the other half mocha - this made it difficult for me to drink my mocha. I was not happy at all with my mocha but it was alright, at least I had the chance to chill in a quite place.


After I finished my drink, I went to meet Guia for our free workshop.

The workshop ran for an hour and Reiva Cruz - a make up artist from NY, was amazing! I love the way she gave the workshop because she was just really chill. I should really invest more on make up and practice on my face. Hahaha
