When Mom Violy wanted seafood, one name kept popping up: Breakthrough Restaurant. Would it live up to the hype?

After a road trip and exploring the area, Mom Violy requested some seafood and was given a recommendation to dine at  Breakthrough Restaurant . When we entered the restaurant, we saw it was bustling with customers, and Mom Violy asked for a table by the window to enjoy the beach view . The server informed us that we needed to place our order at the counter and choose the seafood to be weighed, similar to the process at Dampa . Tita Edna was busy snapping photos, while Carmina was filming as Mom Violy placed her order. Breakthrough isn’t air-conditioned, but they provide electric fans at your table for comfort. Mom Violy wanted sinigang and was deciding which kind of fish to have with her soup. Mom Violy requested the crab and shrimp to be cooked in butter and garlic. Mom Violy also ordered adobong pusit (squid). Tita Edna placed her own order, which was kilawin na dilis . Carmina wanted fresh lumpia , but since it wasn’t available, she opted for pinakbet instead. Everything seeme...

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.
