Kooky & Luscious




Tucked in the midst of Ayala Avenue, this cozy little cafe offers a plethora of comfort food, from pasta to rice dishes as well as sandwiches, and of course desserts. Perfect for a quick lunch out or coffee break with co-workers along this busy avenue in Makati.



Living up to the name; cookies make up a part of their line of desserts. 



Roasted Vegetable Lasagne - 150 php


Breaded Pork Chop - 160 php


One of their best selling desserts, this frozen treat will please the pallet as well as the senses. The decorative raspberry syrup marries well with the bittersweet qualities of the cool & creamy chocolate mousse. One bite is all there is to realize the origin of it's name.

Chocolate Dementia - 150 php



Sinful almost to the point of dementia. I like to think of this cake as one of the must-try desserts in the heart of the business district.



The cafe has a 2nd floor to further accommodate more patrons.

Cuptails




Welcome to Cuptails! At first it looks like your everyday cute little cupcake shop...


With a huge array of colourful sweets...


cafe drinks...


a cup of hot tea perhaps?


more cute sweets...


..even a picturesque cupcake bouquet..


as well as varied savory dishes & salads...


But when one comes to the counter for a closer look...There seems to be a more grown-up vibe a midst all the fluffy cupcakery cuteness. Yep, its cocktails infused with alcohol! and the good thing is that you can enjoy these alcoholic lovelies during anytime of the day. Their cupcake selection is very extensive comprising of all the classic favourite cocktails in cupcake form, although the availability of some flavours depends on the rotation for the day. 




Chocolate cupcake spiked with vodka with a creamy frosting. So good! One of the best sellers!


Cosmopolitans. A Sex & the City staple! 


Also One of the best sellers: Screaming O cupcakes. It has Belgian chocolate, coffee liquor, vodka & irish cream~



Obviously one of the cutest cupcakes which comes with it's own miniature umbrella. It really lives up to it's name :D



Non-alcoholic cupcakes are available too which are equally as adorable!~




One of the best sellers in the alcohol-free cupcake division. How can you go wrong with chocolate and banana? yummyyyy



We tried their Screaming O and Margarita cupcakes. You can really taste the irish cream in the screaming O's and it was so awesome we had seconds :D The Margarita cupcake was a refreshing palette cleanser with the right amount of kick for the tastebuds. deeelicious!


Roasted Kalabasa with Malunggay pesto soup - 130 php

A medley of kalabasa, malunggay, & coconut milk with dollops of pesto. Yum!


I'm a fan of kalabasa and malunggay and having this soup in coconut cream was a different experience altogether. Great!


Baked dory pomodoro - 200 php

penne, pomodoro, cream, dory fillet. thumbs up!


Tuna Melt Sandwich - 150 php

Tuna, capers, olives and kesong puti in ciabbata bread. comes with a side of chips :D


Vegetarian Lasagna - 155 php

Lasagna, pomodoro, kangkong cream & cheese. Heavenly; if it weren't for the generous helpings of eggplant & veggies, I would have totally judged this as extremely sinful. 


Dark Chocolate Espresso - 130 php

One of their best selling drinks. For now it's only available hot, but its sooo creamy and delicious! Perfect comfort drink!


Cuptails is an awesome place to eat hearty meals, catch up with friends with a cup of coffee or simply just indulge in your favourite cupcake fantasy!


For the month of May, Cuptails is treating guests to a Cupcake Happy Hour(6-7pm) with discounts on their favourite cupcakes. Great time to have a cuptail!~
