Taking a Bite at Slice

Slice is introduced to me by a friend while we are at Serendra, hungry and looking for some place to eat. Slice is located at the 7^th Ave., corner 29^th St. West Superblock at the Ground Floor of Bonifacio High Street, besides Jamba Juice and Cotton On.

Slice is a small store that has a homey feeling. But this small store will surprise you with the variety and arrays of cakes, cupcakes, cookies and beverages.

Aside from the display of cakes, you will also be awed by the posters and pictures displayed at Slice. You will see pictures of Sen. Pia Cayetano, who owns the place, and her different adventures. One that caught my attention is that they are because there is no wi-fi so they encourage you to talk with each other instead. They also have magazine that you can read while enjoying a sip of their drinks.

For our dinner we ordered, a slice chips that is composed of thinly sliced banana and potato chips together with an aioli dip. The chips although thinly sliced is tasty and soft that is not hard to bite. Although the potato chips are covered with cheese powder, it will not stick into your hand.

We also ordered for a Seafood Puttanesca, which according to the waiter is one of their bestseller. And she is not lying with it as being one of the bestseller. The pasta is covered with squid ink and has shrimps and salmon. There is no “umay” as we shared a huge plate of the pasta. We are three in the group and one serving of the pasta is enough to satisfy our hunger.

Of course our meal will not be complete if we won’t order some cakes. For the cakes we ordered a slice of the Tres Leches and Double Choco Yema. Tres Leches has a ultra-moist bread that will melt in your mouth. It is creamy like a leche flan and has a sweet taste. The Double Choco Yema on the other hand is a chocolate cake with yema between the two layers of bread. The yema is nicely complemented by the chocolate ganache covering the cake. The slices of the two cakes are also big that we don’t mind sharing it.

Aside from pasta and cakes, Slice offers breakfast meals that are served all day. They also have salads, burgers and sandwiches and rice meals.
