A Sweet Celebration :)

Today (Sept. 23), M and I celebrates our 21 months of being a couple. Let me rephrase that, we celebrate our 21 months of loving each other and for the many months to come. Cheers!

He took me to a "cake date". He was supposed to give me a cake weeks ago as a peace offering for an argument we had that I already forgot what was about. I told him we'll just have a cake date on the 23rd and so we did. Instead of the usual Bob's and Calea we went to Miren's Dessert Cafe. I know Miren of Miren Dessert Express. I came across her on-line store 2 years ago. She was Manila-based then but I understand she went to Bacolod regularly. I ordered for a revel bar tray but she couldn't made it that time in Bacolod so I never had the chance to taste the goodies :( But not today! M and I ordered revel bar, chocolate cream cheese square, red velvet cake and a decadent chocolate cake. We all have those goodies just for ourselves! I like the revel bar best. I am just a revel bar person. By the way another revel bar I love is that of Kiosko (not sure of the spelling) in Dumaguete City.

Miren's Cafe is the minimalist kind. They just opened probably this month. The walls match the floor's color which is white. If I am to ask I don't think a white-colored floor is a good choice for a dessert shop. It can easily be stained. I know they are bound for improvements for their interiors soon so I wish them luck. The signage outside is attractive, it is not too flashy.

M and I enjoyed our moments together. We talked about our not-so-distant future. Oh, I feel so old! We talked about wanting our own espresso maker someday. After our "cake date", we walked our way to Robinson's mall which is a few meters away from Miren's. We did some window shopping until around 7PM and we both went home. It's really a happy day for us! Plus, it's one of my friend's birthday, Jade. We celebrated her birthday although she's hundred kilometers away. This is indeed a sweet day. I just love moments like this!

FYI: Miren's is located in Lopue's Mandalagan just beside the Riverside Medical Center Satellite Clinic. Prices of cake slices are around 70php to 80php while the pars are no more than 50php. They also serve cold and hot drinks, a tall glass of their drinks will cost you 80php, an average.

That's a tall glass of berry-something.
