Press ENTER to submit your comment. After 47 years, the Hizon's ensaymada continues to hold its place as a definitive rendition of this Filipino classic. Light, airy, buttery, it's an indulgence worth every sinful calorie your conscience and love handles will nag you about. Their Londres (rhum cake) is just ok, but you must try their Yema Tostado - perfect for dessert. Made to order old school chiffon cakes are available. Oh, and the Lemon Meringue Pie makes for a nice coupling with their very bold and aromatic brewed coffee. Thankfully, they have expanded to Mall Of Asia and The Promenade in Greenhills, together with the outlet in the Makati landmark basement. But at the old branch of J Bocobo, you also breathe in a lot of history, and there's a charm to that part of the Metro that amplifies the dining experience. Swing by their toilet, and you'd know how fragrant it is inside a pugon (wood-fired oven) - weird, but amazingly true.
