Insomniac's Mind: Amici Di Don Bosco

Amici Di Don Bosco

The place is recommended by Anton, Toni and Kuya Nick. D and I were

curious, we just had to try it for ourselves. After some prayers at the Blessed Sacrament and a visit at the Church we headed for Amici Di Don Bosco. This is the closest I can get to a Don Bosco compund by the way. In high school I was raised by the St. Scholastica's Academy Benedictine Sisters, we were an exclusive school , no boys from Don Bosco can enter our premises and the same holds true for theirs.

I was expecting a restaurant but it turned out to be a small canteen with a "self-service" set - up. We enjoyed watching the the hustle and bustle at the bakery next door where ensaymadas , bread loaves and cupcakes are baked and packaged . Italian is a perfect choice on a Sunday afternoon. We had Piccantina, pasta and their homemade ice cream. Delicious! D and I are are curious no more. Wink.
