Coffeeshops
in Metro Manila are chiefly associated with hotels. After all,
every decent accommodation needs a place where guests can have
their breakfast, and that place is usually called coffeeshop.
In luxury hotels where speciality restaurants normally only open
for lunch and diner hours, coffeeshops are open not only for breakfast
but throughout the day and they don't only serve coffee but generally
full meals at any time.
There are
very few independent coffeeshops in Metro Manila. Among them is
the chain of Pancake House, with 9 branches in the metropolis.
The chain opened its first outlet in 1970 at the Magallanes Commercial
Center and has since then steadily expanded. They not only serve
fluffy and multi-flavored pan-cakes but also an array of waffles,
sand-wiches, salads, omelettes, tacos, spaghetti and desserts.
Pancake House
is popular with families and, the Philippine yuppie community
and the editor of this book. He regularly visits their branch
at the United Nations Avenue where buttermilk pancakes and double
chocolate sun-dae are his favorite orders.
