For my first cafe hopping meetup, I chose the neighborhood I grew up in. Our Obrero Cafe Hopping Meetup was fun in so many ways.

Coffee Brewing and the Farmers Market [March 14 2025 Davao Video Diary]
On this vlog, I attended a Coffee Brewing Session at Glasshouse. And then, I dropped by the Farmers Market at Rizal Park. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=74BNU-vkfdw Coffee Brewing During the height of the pandemic, I was accustomed to brewing my own coffee. But most of the time, it was just me operating the coffee machine without much thought. I wanted to join the Coffee Brewing Sessions at Glasshouse because I found them interesting. Unfortunately, the schedule did not always match with mine. Fortunately, I finally had the opportunity to join last March. The session I attended was a special Women's Brewing Roundtable, a special session for Women's Month. This was an interesting session, albeit overwhelming. I learned a lot from it and I am now more interested in coffee brewing. Hope to join more brewing sessions more. During the session, I tried their Flat White and the Brown Butter Banana Cake.

But I have so far loved Hojicha and Black Matcha. And my cousin urged (more like forced, actually) me to try Strawberry Matcha and I liked it. So on this day, I ordered Strawberry Matcha. Strawberry Matcha by &matcha Pourover Coffee by &matcha I think this is the first matcha drink I truly enjoyed. Some may say it's cheating because it has Strawberry. Maybe so but I was sincerely happy to be enjoying matcha for the first time. And all the while we were at a work meeting, by the way. I had another glass of Iced Pourover Coffee as my second drink. &Matcha is on our list of Best Matcha Bars in Davao. They are located at Three Yards, Casiana Villa-Abrille Street, Juna Subdivision. Their main branch is in Cabaguio Avenue. Dani's Palace Shawarma and Grill For dinner, we headed to Limaria for Dani's Palace Shawarma and Grill. Chicken Biryani by Dani's Palace Beef Kofta by Dani's Palace Dani's is one of our go-to restaurants. And the Chicken Biryani is one of our favorite dishes there.…
