Last Thursday, we went to the Quezon City hall to conduct our User Acceptability Test as a partial requirement for our thesis.We initially planned to go back to Makati at around lunch time because we planned of having a lunch out at PS Bank's Cafeteria for the Binondo Day buffet. Because everything didn't work out as planned, and because we finished our UAT at around 12:30 in the afternoon we just thought of having our lunch in our favorite cafe around City Hall, Sunglass.
Reliving 2011: I initially knew about Sunglass back in January 2011. My boyfriend-turned-specialfriend-at-this-moment and I were both broke one Sunday afternoon so we decided to just go to the Quezon City Circle (since he just lives nearby) to spend time with each other. Super simple date lang, we went biking (pedicab ha, since I don't know how to balance the real bicycle), watched kids play around and ate dirty ice cream. Those kinds of date were better than those spent in expensive places, promise. We felt hungry that's why we looked for a place to dine in, luckily we found this spot. I ordered Chicken Tapa and I remember, he ordered beef. We were surprised when the crew asked us if we wanted to have a refill of our drinks. We ordered for a cup of extra rice since there were still food left on our plate and we were even more surprise when we got our bill. Free rice refills! The meal cost at 68 pesos before, unli rice and drinks inclusive! From then on, we've become a regular customer of this humble caf.
Reliving 2011.
Spreading the word: Since Quezon City has become our stakeholder for the study that we are conducting, we had to go to the city hall every now and then to conduct interviews, researches and surveys. Because of that, I introduced the place to my thesismates, Maica, Nan and Kenneth! I think they liked the food and place naman because we keep on coming back whenever we are in Quezon City.
There! So the place is just small, good enough to house like 8 people inside, and 8 people in alfresco dining. The place has its homey feel. They also have a television to entertain their customers while waiting for their orders.
Here are the pictures to give you a sort of "feel" about the place.
They don't have this before, good thing they thought of this now. I'm sure they will be able to attract more customers.
Their Menu! Our usual orders were on the side of the menu card. Hahaha.
Charan! Our order, Chicken Tapa! Unli rice and juice for only PhP 88 pesos. You can choose from Strawberry, Iced Tea, Melon, Mango juice.They also serve the healthy organic rice even in your next rice refills!
Ops! Dunkin Donuts not included! He he
And we had two cups of rice each, happy tummy!! Thank you Sunglass!
