Dessert at UCC Park Cafe

Our lunch at Lili Cantonese restaurant didn’t include coffee or dessert and we must have that to complete our meal.

I believe the best cakes are found in Manila. The choices from numerous cake shops and home bakers are endless and the majority are very good and affordable.

Updated: July 11, 2014 (all prices have been updated too) I wrote this post in  2009 and never found the need to amend it until now.
