Transcript

00:00I'm here with Ms. Larisse, the studio manager of Post Ceremony Cafe and the cafe manager,

00:13Sir Francis.

00:14I'm curious, why is it called Post Ceremony?

00:17First of all, the owners of Post Ceremony, which is Sir Al and then Sir Mark, are wedding

00:24photographers.

00:25One day, they've decided to build a studio for their clients, mostly for engagement shoots.

00:32What they thought of was a studio at first, but then, they wanted to maximize the potential

00:38of the studio, which is, they thought of building a cafe.

00:43Tia seems excited about her visit to the cafe, because she will taste her favorite pastry

00:49in her food trip today.

00:52The Espresso Croissant.

00:53Let's slice it up in the middle.

00:58It's super good.

00:59You know, the really delicious croissant, when you taste it, it's like you're in Europe.

01:06This is it.

01:08I love it.

01:09So, let's try it with espresso.

01:12Alright.

01:13Mmm.

01:16Mmm.

01:17Mmm.

01:20I'm in Paris, guys.

01:25I feel like coffee lovers should really appreciate this, because you can really taste the coffee

01:31in this.

01:32For the rosé, I would recommend this for sweet tooth.

01:36It has a butterscotch syrup, popcorn syrup, put some milk, espresso shot, and then it

01:42has salted cream on top.

01:44It's very sweet, and you can really taste the taste of the buttered popcorn.

01:51It's good.

01:52I've never had a coffee that tastes like popcorn.

01:55For the right, it has condensed milk, milk, and then espresso shot on top, and then we

02:03put special cream on top, and then also top off with cinnamon powder.

02:10It has a nutty flavor, and a milky flavor also.

02:15Ay, ang pusita sa favorite ko, yung croissant nila.

02:19Ayun.

02:24Mmm.

02:26So, ito yung choco peanut croissant.

02:29Very balanced siya, together.

02:31Kombination siya ng chocolate, a nut as well.

02:35Ang gusto namin mangyari is, hindi mag-overpower yung flavor ng isa't-isa.

02:41Gusto namin yung balance lang.

02:43Paulit-ulit namin siyang ginawa, hanggang sa come up namin yung tamang recipe, and that's

02:49it.

02:50Galing.

02:52Super good.

02:53Parang hanap mo yung perfect partner mo.

02:56Ganun nun, balance out lahat.

02:58Galing.

02:59For the Lawn Grain naman po, ang tinaka special sa drink na to is, we use banana milk as a

03:06milk base, and then espresso shot as well, then meron on top na caramel and chocolate

03:12syrup, and then a graham on top.

03:15And dito naman ang Lawn Grain, and here we have the matcha croissant.

03:22Unahin ko ang Lawn Grain, again this is inspired by a designer, kaya Lawn Grain ang pangalan.

03:37Okay, I can taste the banana.

03:40Pag na-mix mo better with the crushed biscuits, mas narasahan mo yung balancing ng banana,

03:49yung milk, and then may texture malasahan mo.

03:53Well, syempre nasa bibig mo yung texture.

03:56Magandang balance sya pag na-mix mo very well.

03:59Cheers!

04:03Nasa Quezon City pa rin ang next stop ni beauty queen Tia Tomala, at pag dating niya sa kanyang

04:09dining destination, isang royal welcome ang natanggap niya mula sa Royal Indian Curry

04:14House.

04:18Ang Rich ay fine dining restaurant.

04:21Bukod sa masasarap na pagkain, the restaurant also hosts different shows featuring Bollywood,

04:27Indo house, and Punjabi music.

04:34Pero ang ultimate experience na babalik-balikan mo sa Rich ay ang kanilang authentic Indian

04:40food.

04:44This is curry, right?

04:45Yes.

04:46With that is cheese nana.

04:51Ooh, can you see the cheese?

04:53Can you see the cheese?

05:01Mmm.

05:04It's the best nana that I've ever had.

05:06It's making me speechless.

05:09Because it's very soft, it's really easy to eat and the flavor is just rich.

05:17Yeah.

05:18Very rich.

05:26This is chicken and chicken biryani.

05:27This is one of the best set of biryani.

05:30You can try this one.

05:32And tell me, how are you from?

05:34And this is the sauce with the, you call it raita?

05:37Bird raita.

05:40That's amazing.

05:41Because at first I thought, oh, it's just like rice, plain, and then there came the citrusy taste.

05:48This is aromatic rice.

05:49It looks rice, but there is many spices mixed in that.

05:54I could taste a bit of citrusy, and that's what you call aromatic, right?

06:01Yeah.

06:02And now with the sauce, it blends well with the rice and has a very refreshing taste.

06:06Is this yogurt?

06:07Yeah, it's yogurt.

06:08Mmm.

06:09You cannot feel heaviness.

06:11Yes.

06:12Guys, I'm so blessed to be here.

06:15It's super refreshing.

06:17It's something I've never tried before.

06:20It's very unique.

06:22This is palak paneer.

06:23It's peanuts with paneer.

06:25We call it cottage cheese.

06:27Cottage cheese is also homemade.

06:29Different from cheese and garlic naan.

06:36When you think about spinach, you think about a healthy taste, right?

06:40Yeah, yeah.

06:41This is not just a healthy taste.

06:44It tastes delicious.

06:45Delicious, yeah.

06:46Very rich and very rich in protein.

06:49Yeah.

06:50Right?

06:51Yes.

06:56So this is also a nice combination with the Indian food.

07:00We call it lassi.

07:01It's a yogurt drink, and it's good for digestion also.

07:06We call it tandoori prawns.

07:07Yogurt, then Indian spices, then it's like grilled prawns.

07:12It's grilled.

07:13Yeah, it's grilled prawns, but some Indian flavor.

07:16I love how we can just mix and match the sauces.

07:19Like, even if you try another sauce, it's perfect.

07:24Mmm, yes.

07:26This is called mutton seekh.

07:27Mutton seekh?

07:28Yeah, seekh kebab, yeah.

07:29Seekh kebab.

07:30Yeah.

07:31This is...

07:32And this is the condiments with that.

07:34This is mint sauce.

07:36Okay.

07:39And this is tamarind one, the sweet.

07:44Okay.

07:45And this is...

07:46You like it spicy?

07:47Not really.

07:48Not really?

07:49Is that okay?

07:50Yeah, a little bit.

07:51Oh, a little bit.

07:52All right.

07:55Is this...

07:56What's kebab made of?

07:57This is made of mutton boneless.

08:01We grind it with some Indian herbs.

08:04Then we cook it in...

08:05We have traditional oven from...

08:07We call it tandoor.

08:08It's from India.

08:09We import from India.

08:10Everything's from India?

08:11Yeah, everything's from India.

08:12Then we cook it in oven.

08:14So everything is, like, authentic.

08:18I love that when you make it with the mint,

08:20it has, like, a refreshing taste towards it.

08:22You can try with the chicken seekh kebab.

08:26Mmm.

08:28Mmm.

08:30I'm speechless.

08:31It's super good.

08:32Thank you so much.

08:33Because I never tried fish kebab.

08:35Yeah.

08:36So this is a first for me.

08:37It's very soft.

08:38Yeah, it's very soft.

08:46You like it?

08:47I really like it.

08:51So this is the final in India.

08:55If you go in any Indian house,

08:57after having so good food,

09:00without dessert,

09:01they will not let you go.

09:02So please, try this.

09:05This is basically,

09:06it's a sweet dish.

09:07Okay.

09:08Yeah, in India.

09:09You can compare this, like,

09:11like leecha plant,

09:12something like that.

09:13Yeah.

09:14Yeah, yeah.

09:15But it does, like,

09:16a bread texture?

09:18It's a milk.

09:19We use it milk powder.

09:21Milk po...

09:22Oh.

09:23That's why it's melting in my mouth.

09:24Yeah, yeah, yeah.

09:25There.

09:26Thank you so much, Chef Prana.

09:27Thank you for coming.

09:28Thank you for coming.

09:30It's super rich.

09:32Taste and texture,

09:34and everything.

09:36Thank you, thank you, thank you.

09:37So my overall experience is,

09:39first of all,

09:40it's so luxurious.

09:42From the design,

09:44I really appreciate the food,
