A Taste of Hawaii -- Honolulu Cafe, Coffee and Martini Bar

Last week, after eating at Lutong Macau, we saw this new coffee shop along Jupiter St., Makati City. It is called Honolulu Cafe, Coffee and Martini Bar. The place looks classy from afar. It's at the second floor of a building. It has a terrace for those who want to have al fresco coffee drinking experience.



I ordered their Nutty Hawaiian Latte. It's coffee with Macadamia and Coconut flavors. The mixture of flavors is interesting. Something new for me. I could taste the coconut flavor and I like it since it is not too strong. I can't say the same thing about the nuts. I mean I couldn't recognize it at once but I knew there is something there. The coffee drink is creamy. It has a smooth and at the same time frothy 'texture'. It is actually easy to drink.


If you drink coffee for the purpose of being awake longer to do other things, then this is what you should get. I don't usually get affected by coffee anymore in the sense that I can sleep fast even after having a cup. But with this one, I really had to exert effort to fall asleep -- that is considering it was already way beyond 12 midnight when I went bed. 

The  coffee is relatively cheaper than in other popular coffee shops in the metro. And aside from coffee they also have other cocktail drinks -- it is a coffee and martini bar after all.
 

The waiter was kind. He assisted us when we came in. He ushered us to the counter. He also helped us choose what to order by describing some of the drinks on the menu.

Honolulu Cafe can be found along Jupiter St. in front of Red Ribbon and Frank Provost salon.
