It has been a while, I know. I had been busy with my day job as of late and I have not been able to attend any events the past few months. I was so lucky to receive and invitation from the Rizal based foodies to join a foodie meet-up near Marcos Highway. The shop is called Coffee Time Cakes and Pastries.
Coffee Time Cakes and Pasties is a concept store that caters to the clients of their ATMT Car Care company that does professional detailing for cars. It’s a relatively small shop but it is so much more!
