Mentoré by UCC

Finally, I was able to set foot at the newest mall in Fort BGC, SM Aura. Allow me to congratulate my hubby who took part in the construction of the said mall. Though he would always say "konti lang naman ginawa namin dyan" (we only did a few), still I'm a proud wifey and will always be his number two fan in all his achievements. Number one now is of course my cutie patootie. :-)

Anyway, after checking out my favorite stores and a little shopping here and there, the hubby asked if I could wait for him all the way from Makati. I passed by Mentoré several times prior his call so I've thought of taking a seat at their al fresco area and relax a bit while waiting. This is right across Forever 21 and Uniqlo located at the 2nd floor.

It was almost a Saturday rush hour so the main streets have started to get busier. This is probably why some netizens raised their brows upon hearing that an SM Mall is to be constructed. It now showed how it fairly affected the bulk of vehicles passing by.

 

But I couldn't care less yet. After all, I'm enjoying the beautiful overlooking view of Serendra and the weather was perfect. Somehow, at the back of my mind, I wondered how does it feel to live in this kind of place, and how much you should be earning to afford a bare studio type pad. But since I wanted to relax and avoid over-thinking, I turned my attention to the menu. I wasn't even hungry at that hour.

 

I ordered Clair Mango for Php200. Clair by the way is a soft and waffle-like kind of crepe. This one was topped with raspberries, kiwi fruit, mango, vanilla ice cream and whipped cream. You can slice the clair in 4 equal parts then wrap the toppings with it together with the ice cream and whipped cream. I find it okay, unique in a way because it was my first time to try it but nothing really to rave about. Or maybe I just prefer the commonly known crepes that we have. If there's one thing that registered to me, that would be chewing the luscious raspberries.

 

But then, that was just one item from the huge and new variety they offer. Mentoré is a coffee shop + bar, so they house a lot of brewed/blended coffee and food items that are not offered in some other UCC shops. Plus, there's a mini golf putting area. There was no one playing though at that time. I think you only need to purchase a required amount to play. More reasons to give a second visit and try their house blends.
