Cafe Noriter in Manila - Cool Korean Coffee Shop near Taft with the Avida Food Hunt!

I guess this is the time to tell the whole world that I'm bound for Korea again soon :D It really has a special place in my heart and I guess I'm attracted to Korean-themed or inspired or food places, whether I'm in Manila or on a trip even to remote places like Puerto Galera. And so I was ecstatic when the Avida Food Hunt led me to this cool Korean coffee shop in Taft. I'm so happy that they brought the Cafe Noriter franchise and that vibe from Korea to the Philippines.

Manila Food Trip - Foodie Finds near DLSU Taft for the Avida Towers Prime Food Hunt!

I've always wondered how my life would have turned out if I went to La Salle instead of Ateneo haha. I got to sit in once and enjoyed the teaching method. J was from there and he took me to one of his favorite (and student-friendly) tambayans in Taft before. I've always loved beef and steak but I could never forget the sauce! It was a favorite memory and my equivalent of a Manang's moment near the Ateneo covered courts..

Fast forward to this year, I was recently invited to participate in the Avida Food Hunt Taft Edition and was glad to find out that this restaurant was still there and it was in their list. So basically, this post is about the restaurants that you'll come to love if ever you choose to reside in Taft (where the Avida Towers Taft is currently being constructed) and where you can head to if ever you just want a downtown Manila food trip or study in La Salle or one of the colleges nearby. Note: I call Manila City of Metro Manila, Taft and beyond as downtown Manila. Special thanks to Chef JJ for doing this tour with us!
