Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story. -Max Ehrmann, Desiderata

Bag of Beans

February 23, 2009

One of our favorite places in Tagaytay is Bag of Beans. So after a very good lunch at Hawaiian Bar-B-Que, The Boutique, we thought that it’s only fitting to cap off our Tagaytay weekend with a cup of coffee. We were quite surprised with the change. The place now seems…uhm… cleaner, not that it was a mess before. I think they moved and removed a few plants to make it look a lot more “organized.”

Since it was a weekday, a Monday no less, early afternoon, we practically had the whole place to ourselves. One of the things that we noticed was this small cabana with a daybed and wood flooring.

It had this lamp on top. I don’t know if it works though, maybe only at night, or maybe it’s only there for decorative purposes. But I like the stained glass; it somehow reminded me of my grandparents’ our old house in the province.

Another major change they had was the bathrooms. Nice and clean. Always a good sign. :)

We ordered two cups of coffee (cappuccino and cafe latte, I think)

and shared one big bowl of Banana Split. Yummy!

Thanks for this info. I think my wife and I should visit this place too.

You should, particularly since you’re very near Tagaytay.

I want that banana split! Probably I could make one this weekend, with a Nutella twist. =)

Wits: Inggit ako dun ah! We will be at the grocery later, will grab a Nutella too!

Sheng: Ministop has this ice cream cone for 15 pesos! Sarap din. One cheese cone please! Try mo maghanap.

Jeanny: Fave namin Tagaytay. We sometimes go there just to have coffee at Bag of Beans or Taal Vista. Buti mura na ulit gas. :)
