Cold Layers at Northeast Square, Greenhills

This is a super duper delayed post thanks to all my backlogs. Last February 14 (yes, Valentines Day!) hubby and I had a nice lunch that beats dining at those overpriced places with set menus. What's more, we had the entire place to ourselves... haha!

Cold Layers at Northeast Square, GreenhillsI had purchased discounted Cold Layers vouchers at Cashcashpinoy late last year (paid P150 for P250 worth x 3). Since they were valid for 6 months I decided to use them for lunch since Cold Layers serves more than just desserts.

Cold Layers at Northeast Square, GreenhillsI liked Cold Layers' light, pastel-themed interiors and cute penguin mascot. It looked a lot like those Asian dessert places abroad.

There's an abundance of tables and chairs to accommodate customers.

Turkey Mango Sandwich at Cold Layers at Northeast Square, GreenhillsI ordered Turkey Mango Sandwich (P180, pictured above). Slices of turkey breast, sweet ripe mangoes, lettuce, and Japanese mayonnaise are sandwiched in between slices of panini. It also comes with potato chips and a side salad with the yummiest Japanese sesame dressing.

They don't skimp on the filling!

Breakfast Platter at Cold Layers at Northeast Square, GreenhillsMeanwhile hubby ordered the Breakfast Platter (P240, pictured above). It consists of two eggs, ham, frankfurter, toast, and a small bowl of fresh fruit. It's great because the ham and franks are not fried. They're boiled or something so they're not greasy but they're tender and tasty. The fruits were really good too.

True Love at Cold Layers at Northeast Square, GreenhillsFor dessert, we picked True Love (P135, pictured above) which is snow ice with milk, milk essence, and egg pudding (translation: fresh milk, condensed milk, and custard). Snow ice desserts are what Cold Layers is known for. True Love was a tad too sweet for my tastes.

First Crush at Cold Layers at Northeast Square, GreenhillsWe also had their bestseller, First Crush (P220, pictured above). It's made with soy milk, grass jelly (also known as black gulaman), chewy black tapioca pearls, and brown syrup (similar to what's used in taho). It's soooo good. The finely shaved ice just melts in your mouth. It feels very light and refreshing when eaten and it's not overly sweet. I'm officially addicted. This is now one of my favorite desserts.

Snow ice dessert at Cold Layers is perfect for the upcoming hot summer days! They have free wifi access too. :D
