We didn’t have dessert at ‘Cue Modern Barbecue anymore because I wanted to try the much raved about choco yema cupcakes at Slice so that’s where we went to for dessert.
While my friends went straight to Slice I made a quick detour to Jamba Juice next door to use a coupon that was given to me.
My coupon was for a small acai supercharger. It wasn’t my first choice but I really liked the tangy berry flavors of the icy drink. We all shared this cup and everyone liked it too. Slice was nice enough to give us several espresso cups for us to have a shot of acai supercharger each.

Slice was just across ‘Cue in Bonifacio High Street.

We actually ordered a couple of morning glory muffins made with apples, carrots, walnuts and raisins but I wasn’t fast enough to take a picture before everyone descended upon it and it was gone. Actually next to the choco yema it was my favorite.

If you’ve been reading my blog regularly you know I’m not a big fan of cupcakes. I’m more of a cookie monster. But these cupcakes were just the bomb ย and my sweet tooth was very happy. Instead of the usual buttercream or cream cheese frosting which I don’t like these rich, fudgy chocolate cupcakes were topped with dulce de leche. The thick and almost chewy topping was so decadent without being cloyingly sweet. Freakin’ fantastic I tell you.

I’m not a fan of anything red velvet because I don’t want to eat so much red food coloring but since it was Tisay’s favorite she ordered a slice. It was quite costly at P240 a slice but she said it was pretty good.

I was so excited to see the cookies and it was my first time to encounter deep dish cookies. Alas it was too sweet for me and not chewy enough. My friends liked it though so after a little nibble I passed it on to them.

I think serving food and drinks in wood planks is a trend now in Manila. This is the third place I’ve seen these bulky wood planks used. All our coffee drinks were served on it along with a small dish of granola which they sell.
Tisay just adored her chocnut coffee. It wasn’t too sweet and the peanut flavor was quite evident. I want to order this next time just without the whipped cream and syrup.

Deb had the latte and I had the regular coffee which was strong and so delicious. We got rid of the wood planks or else it wouldn’t have fit on our table with all the desserts we ordered.

I would definitely go back for a choco yema cupcake and a cup of coffee. My idea of a perfect snack or dessert.
