Situated in a little nook by the bay, Unit 8 Cafe is a new hang-out place oldies and yuppies alike will enjoy. I’ll tell you why further into this review, because first and foremost, Unit 8 Cafe is a restaurant—serving a new, delectable and refreshing menu that you wouldn’t want to miss.
A couple of weeks ago, Marc and I were fortunate to be invited to try out Unit 8 Cafe and see (and taste) for ourselves what it has to offer. The travel from Antipolo to the Mall of Asia took its toll on me, and I was already a bit cranky (not to mention, hungry) when we got there a little after 1pm.

A few weeks ago, Marc and I were invited to taste the cuisine of Malacca, a new Malaysian restaurant along Jupiter Street in Makati. I was skeptical at first—I’ve long had not-so-satisfying experiences with unfamiliar foreign food—but Marc said we wouldn’t know if it was any good unless we tried. You see, Marc’s the one more adventurous when it comes to food—I’m not much of a risk-taker if it involves eating and drinking.
I have to admit that in this case, I’m glad I agreed and went ahead with the gastronomic tour at Malacca. Read more…
