Hanji House of Desserts, Timog

We tried Hanji after our dinner at Manong's Bagnet.

We saw their very bright signage lights from across the street.

Turns out, it was their first day opening and is on 20% off! Yay!

Coconut Juice Pomelo & Mango w/ Ice Cream P109

I was really excited to try this because I am a fan of the classic mango sago 

in chinese restaurants.

Mango & Gelatin with Ice Cream P109

Coconut Juice & Black Rice with Mango P98

But since it was their first day, their desserts were not yet that perfect.

For me, it lacked taste. Or it all tasted the same.

Mr. Hanji also gave us free gelatos to try.

Discounts are good but free is better. Ü

Mr. Hanji said that they are still adjusting their gelato, they make it themselves.

I made Bochogs try Bono after our Borough dinner.




I've been hearing a lot of raves about their gelato..




And I got curious what the fuss is about.

I chose this flavor.

Dark Chocolate P130
It was good the first few licks, it probably would have been better if I got 1 more scoop of a different flavor pang tanggal umay 


But I did not give up.
I tried it again with Tin after our Ginza Bairin dinner.

This time I got this.

Coffee Honeycomb P130
Better. But not as good as the people who raved about it described it to be.



But wait, there's more.
I tried Bono once more after ahya, mumsy and I had dinner at Santouka.

ღ Speculoos P200 
(2 scoops because mumsy is addicted to speculoos)

Now, this one was better than the last one I tried.
You just have to get the right flavor for your buds.

I first tried out Afters on April 9, 2012.

I heard raves on their gelato.. 

Dark Chocomint P95 

Cotton Candy P95

This is actually blue but turned green coz of the light.

It's good but I don't like the texture.

I also tried their coffee.

Iced Caramel P130 

I went back with Sweetie and Bey on May 10, 2013 for her birthday salubong.

Because they're open until 4 in the morning! ღ

Sweetie asked if they give freebies to birthday celebrants 

but the barista said none.

Cafe Latte P95

But Sweetie turned her charms on, 

after a few minutes, the barista handed her this.

Mint Chips (free! ღ)

I like the ambiance of this place and for a non-alcoholic drinker with insomnia,

this place caters to me.ღ
