[a taste of MANGO BRAVO]

We celebrated my eldest's 17th birthday by having dinner at CONTI's Katipunan, a cozy family restaurant famous for their delectable dishes & the MANGO BRAVO cake. Actually, the cake was the real reason we chose to dine there because we had a taste of how good it was during Anika's christening.

Anyway, it was almost Christmas around that time, so the place was all spruced-up for the holidays.

For our meals, we ordered these.

For our sweet-enders, which my hubby & I enjoyed over a cup of freshly-brewed coffee, we opted for a slice each of these.

OREO cheesecake

Finally, our piece de resistance, the MANGO BRAVO cake which we shared with my mom, sister & her children.
