what the best  coffee in town...please share

[V_for_Victoria]

Any place that serves illy or Lavazza.

illy...I know Classic Confections (Greenbelt 5), Chelsea (Serendra), M Café (GB3), Cantinetta (Pasong Tamo extension).
Lavazza...Bizu et al.

I also really liked Old Manila Coffee House's barako.

I've never gotten consistently good coffee from places like Figaro, Starbucks, UCC, etc., but they're usually just all right.

My favorite coffee to make at home is Peet's Coffee.

[satya]

is the peets coffee avail locally?

[sola_gurl]

^^yeah..the coffe at bizu's good!

I also like UCC.
Dunkin donut's coffee is surprisingly good.  I never expected this one since it's cheap.

For instant coffee, I like Bon Cafe.  I think it's freeze dried something? Not your normal nescafe powder.

For canned coffee, I like Pokka (capuccino or milk) and nescafe latte only.  I don't like the other variants of nescafe. They're too sweet.

^ I like Necafe Latte & Mocha! I miss Nescafe Ice though-- it's a coffee powder mix but for iced coffee.. yummm!

I sooo love coffee.. not just drinks, but also on cakes, bread, etc.

^^ I'm the opposite naman, somewhat. I love coffee, but I don't like it as a flavor in other stuff. I don't even like coffee or mocha ice cream or tiramisu. (It's going to take a VERY GOOD tiramisu to convince me.)

Back when I was still drinking instant coffee, UCC was my favorite. Blends 117 and 118 are stronger (and better) than 113 and 114. 117 (the black label) is the best. UCC's Class One is also good, if you're on a budget. Maxwell House was also good.

is the peets coffee avail locally?

Unfortunately, not yet. I have to ask relatives and friends in the States to get it for me. I'll also be happy if it's available locally, kasi parati kong tinitipid yung stock namin.

Lavazza for coffeemakers is easily available, though, in groceries. illy, as far as I know, only makes espresso. I have yet to try UCC for brewing, but I'm sure it'll be good. Our everyday brewed coffee is Kirkland, which we get at S&R.

^ i love the coffee crunch cake of red ribbon.. and coffee buns too now i'm craving, LOL!!

selecta's coffee crumble ice cream is so yummy too! haaay..

for instant coffee, I like Nescafe (First Pick Limited Edition)/ Nescafe 3-in-1

I love Starbucks frappuccino too!!

Self-confessed coffee addict here.. breakfast ain't complete w/o a cup of coffee!

[mommy_me]

coffee addict also. solve na ako sa nescafe 3 in 1.

Now that you mentioned them, sis, I love those two too. I guess I can make exceptions.

How many cups of coffee a day do you ladies drink? I average about 2 12-oz cups, and my most was actually 3 12-oz cups, one for each meal. Although I would have decaf at night to help me sleep at night.

I find the dark roast coffee jelly frap of Starbucks a bit on the sweet side but I like it pa rin.

[angel_eyes_2nite]

Coffee addict here too..

Sa instant-I like the great taste-dessert edition-mocha mint flavor.

pag di me makapunta sa Starbucks to buy a mocha frap, I usually have a stock nung Mocha frap sa bottle na available na sa supermarket.

I love coffee crumble ice cream...

Coffee flavored Zagu

red ribbon's coffee crunch cake

and I even like tiramisu!

[marose17]

I love UCC's capuccino.

[hachi]

Coffee cake (becky's)
Cappuccino ice cream (fic)
Hot latte (las paellas)

[clueless]

i love coffee but i'm not a coffee addict. i need to have coffee every morning to jump start my day. but i can never drink black coffee. always with milk and sugar.

i don't know what brand of coffee is brewed sa office but i like it.

i also love brewed coffee with cakes or dessert crepes. i'm not so into mga fancy coffee mixes like the ones at starbucks.

we use folgers half-caffeine coffee a home for brewing.

love the coffee gelato at gourdo's and cafe puccini. and also the espresso gelato at amici.

[muahmuahmuah]

whats a good pete's coffee blend ?

i like brewing my own either dunkin original or coffeebean with half n half no sugar.

at starbucks i just go for a regular brew venti or iced coffee with cream.

sawa na ako sa flavored coffee but lately if theres vanilla creme i'll add a bit and ayaw ko masyado matamis but i will never back out on a really really good tiramisu or yung sa red ribbon coffee crunch tho bihira ko na ito matikman..and possibly coffee cakes not pastries.

i love coffeee its a perfect pick me up'er.

may naglalagay ba ng coffee with honey or bagay ba yun?

[numonorean]

coffee addict!

hindi ako pwedeng magsimula ng walang kape.  kasi kung hindi e bugnutin ako.

[V_for_Victoria]

^^ Ako rin! Kulang ang araw ko kapag hindi ako nagkakape.

That's also how I like my coffee! With some sort of creamer and no sugar. I don't like sweetened coffee anymore. I also just get brewed coffee at coffee shops, if not a cappuccino or americano.

whats a good pete's coffee blend ?

Colombian, if you like a medium roast that's naturally sweet and fragrant. It's also the least acidic, IMO. Same with House Blend. If you like it on the strong side, go for French Roast, Major Dickason's Blend, and Italian Roast.
The only blends I didn't like were Sumatra (tastes like wood to me, as I find is the case with most Southeast Asian beans) and the Holiday Blend, unless made very strong.

me rin, di complete if walang coffee sa morning!

i wanna try Becky's coffee cake.. i heard masarap nga daw.

[muahmuahmuah]

@victoria 'll try nga petes.sayang i just bought a couple of coffeenbean ground beans. found comfort in coffeebean eh.

nataamad ako mag gamit ng coffeemaker which we eventualy gave away mura lang naman yun so i got this makeshift coffee maker na parang funnel. mas mura haha you still need to put yung coffee filter and just buhos hot water good for 1cup. ok naman. convenient in a way na di mahirap maghugas.

i also got myself a frenchpress mug. coarse dapat ang beans medyo maeklat lang to wash haha tamad talaga but cant complain with the coffee taste...superb.

[V_for_Victoria]

LOL! That's also my complaint about the French press...a bit tough to clean.
