Tired of the new rules, Carmina closed her Google Maps account — what pushed her over the edge?

It’s been months since Carmina last posted on her Google Maps. I started doing it just for fun, exploring new places to dine and travel, and sharing those spots with others. Back in 2017, I wasn’t even blogging yet. Over the years, I received numerous email updates about changes, but in September, the removal of followers on Google Maps felt particularly strange. There’s no point in complaining about it. I decided not to close my account, as it wasn’t an option, but I did delete all the photos I had contributed over the years. I have fond memories of seeing which photos were popular and had hoped to share them with you. It was surprising to see how many views my pictures had accumulated. While deleting them, I noticed that many restaurants and bakeries no longer exist, with some marked as unknown on the map. Most of my photos were from the pandemic period, a time when I could fully express myself and write about the food I enjoyed. Let's take a trip down memory lane with Carmina th...

Carmina's Review on Bread Pocket Café



Carmina went on a bread venture, searching for a new place to order her bread. Sometimes we get tired of ordering from the same place, especially when on a diet, and feel the urge to explore other options.

It took me quite a while to decide what type of bread I wanted this time.

I ended up choosing a variety to have more options for making sandwiches.

A half baguette costs PHP 44.00 ($0.92). Considering the size, the price is reasonable. The baguette is softer than others I've tried before, which is a great advantage, especially for keeping bread fresh at home longer. I removed it from the packaging, sliced it in the middle, and opened it on the side to make sandwich preparation easier. Then, I placed it in a clear plastic container with a lid to keep it fresh at home.



My favorite bread has always been Ciabatta. For PHP 44.00 ($0.92), it’s big for its price, soft, and absolutely enjoyable. The inside is moist and fluffy, and since it’s quite large, I usually can only eat half at a time.


Honestly, I had a hard time figuring out what a 1950's Footlong was. I had no idea there was a hotdog inside the bread until I checked their Facebook page to find out what type of bread it was.

It's actually pretty big and worth the price of PHP 169.00 ($3.52). The 1950's Footlong has a local hotdog inside, and the bread is soft, making it enough to split into two meals.


I treated myself to a Coffee Bun for PHP 56.00 ($1.17). It was something different, kind of reminiscent of a donut but in the form of a baked bun, with a flavor that combines coffee and chocolate from the top.



This coffee bread is unlike any I've had before, and I’m excited to try their other baked goods in the future.
