Inside Hole in the Wall : Scout's Honor

-
After eating our way around Hole in the Wall, we were just about ready to wave the white flag. Before that though, we just have to visit one last store. I have been hearing raves about this yummy dessert store and I made it a point not to miss this. Not even when our tummies are about to burst from so much food, my visit will never be complete without checking out Scout's Honor!

Luckily, Chef Miko Aspiras was there for me to say hi! I saw him back when we went to dine at Fairmont Makati and I'm happy to see that he has finally opened his very own dessert brand.

Scout's Honor's menu is divided into three parts -- there's the Classic Scout Cookies, Craft Cookies and they got flavored Milk to go with your cookies too! First, Paul and I checked out the Classic Scout Cookies which are ready-made cookie creations which are not the ordinary.

We were intrigued by the Cookie Inception which is a cookie within a cookie within a cookie! Doesn't that sound just like a dream? :) Paul and Pan -- our family's two chocoholics, loved this very much! Mommy and I tried the Matcha Sesame which was yummy! We both love anything matcha and the sesame filling wasn't too sweet and perfectly matched the milky-bitter kick of the matcha. We also tried the S'Mores-Tag-Alongs which is perfect for all marshmallow fans like myself. The shortbread made the cookie very light which was perfect as the marshmallow gave the cookie weight and the sweetness already.

Moving on to check out the Craft Cookies, I was so excited that Chef Miko can actually create your very own cookie on the spot! There were 6 cookie doughs to choose from: basic chewy cookie, double chocolate fudge, molasses oatmeal cookie, vegan cookie, peanut butter cookie and herbed shortbread cookie. On top of that, there's a myriad of toppings to choose from! From nuts to fruits, there's candies, grains and chocolate chips too!

Here's the PaulFran creation! It's a simple (but super yummy) cookie creation using the basic chewy cookie with milk chocolate chips, almonds and roasted macadamia! It was so chewy and fudgey, Paul and I just loved every bit of it. We enjoyed it way too much that we forgot to save some for Pan. Ooops! *sheepish grin* Bad Achi and Ahia!

We had so much fun at Scout's Honor that I know this is one store I want to go back to pretty soon! I want to create more cookies with the other toppings and swirls as well. This is truly where sweet cookie dreams are made from!

 Hole in the Wall is located at the 4th floor of Century City Mall, Century City, Kalayaan Avenue in Makati. Call them at 801-1231

Franny Mommy Finds : Happy Noz Sticker Patch

As a parent, I have one thing that I dread the most and that's when any of my kids fall sick. From the moment we detect the faintest sniffle followed by sneezes and runny nose, we know one thing is for sure -- we will be having a couple of sleepless nights. For twins, it is very common that when one falls sick, expect the other one to follow suit in just a matter of days, sometimes within hours even.  A few years ago, my twins would catch a cold and we really would struggle because they'd become very fussy and cranky at night. They're sleepy and tired from the cold but with a clogged nose, they can't really have a restful night and this means, either one of us will have to sit up and carry them all throughout the night. It came to a point wherein both kids were sick and Paul and I eventually caught the bug too. It was just so hard to care for the kids while you're not in the best condition as well. This got me researching on remedies on how we can have a good night

Bag of Beans (Charito) in Tagaytay

I can't believe that we have been frequenting Tagaytay for more than a decade now and not once have I written about Bag of Beans ! I tried searching all over this blog and I found..nothing. To think that not a single trip to Tagaytay, back then, would ever be complete without stopping by Bag of Beans for lunch or merienda. I must have been to engrossed with their coffee and bread that I wasn't able to take photos of the place and their food thus no blog entry. They, after all, have one of the best brewed coffee in Tagaytay and the yummiest bread to go with it too. Bag of Beans has been an institution in Tagaytay. Just like us, other tourists and visitors would make sure to drop by in order to grab a bite or to take home some of their homemade goodies every time they find themselves in Tagaytay. Bag of Beans started with one branch along the Tagaytay-Nasugbu Main Road across Residence Inn Zoo and it wasn't even overlooking the Taal. While they may lack in having a scenic

Misto at Seda Vertis North

Happy Friday!  I'm not going to lie, Friday is one of my favorite days because it means, we're just a day away from the weekend! Who doesn't love the weekend, right? This is the day when I give my twins my uninterrupted attention. We would start the day with any breakfast of their choice (normally waffles for J, pancakes or peanut butter sandwich for L) followed by an hour of doing their homework and in the afternoon, we head out for their swim class! Sunday is more laid back as we would stay home and just laze around the house otherwise, we would go and visit my in laws and spend the day there.  Speaking of the weekend, I suddenly remembered one of the best weekends that we've had this year so far. This was when we had our staycation at Seda Vertis North  and the twins truly enjoyed every minute of it. Of course, they love our comfy and very spacious Corner Suite with an adjacent Deluxe Room as well as checking out the hotel's amenities and the Vertis North mall
