For most of the people who live in the northern part of Manila, it is an unsettlingly quiet area where everything is too relaxed. But it\u2019s exactly what southerners love about the city: the villages never feel congested, people can go out in casual attire, everyone can roam around without being choked by traffic fumes, and there are so many tiny neighborhood gems to discover and love.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\">Usagi Cafe is one of these neighborhood gems. Set in a peaceful street of BF Resort, the Japanese-inspired cafe can be quite easy to miss unless you keep your eyes peeled for it. The cafe is recognizable by the colorful menu board outside and the bunny logo at the facade.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff\">&#8211;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-8655\" src=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/restaurant\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2015\/05\/Usagi-1.jpg\" alt=\"Usagi (1)\" width=\"638\" height=\"850\" srcset=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/food\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2015\/05\/Usagi-1.jpg 720w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/food\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2015\/05\/Usagi-1-164x218.jpg 164w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/food\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2015\/05\/Usagi-1-450x600.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 638px) 100vw, 638px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\">The menu board outside Usagi Cafe<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff\">&#8211;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\">Upon entering Usagi Cafe, one wouldn\u2019t be greeted by live rabbits. But the neat, well-lit interior filled with comfortable chairs and couches and the fabulous Japanese paintings and decor will more than make up for it. The cafe is also a good WiFi spot; that and the quiet ambiance makes it a good place to study, chill out, or catch up with family or friends.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\">Usagi Cafe serves a wide selection of affordable drinks \u2013 iced coffee, citrus tea, fresh fruit juices, and espresso coffee blends \u2013 but people come back for their excellent siphon coffee made with Japanese beans, and their rich, Instagram-worthy frappes. The <strong>Usagi Blend (P105)<\/strong> is a good fix for the caffeine junkies, while the frappes, such as the Iced <strong>Butterscotch Mocha (P120)<\/strong> and <strong>Nutty Banana (P120) <\/strong>are best for those with a sweet tooth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\">Snacks and meals at Usagi Cafe are also not to be missed. They have pasta, sandwiches, Japanese set meals and dessert on the menu, all freshly-cooked upon order. Patrons swear by their <strong>Spicy Tuna Pasta (P140)<\/strong> and <strong>Napolitan Pasta (P150)<\/strong> with homemade Japanese red sauce. For dessert, the <strong>Coffee Jelly (P100)<\/strong> is the bees\u2019 knees.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff\">&#8211;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-8657\" src=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/restaurant\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2015\/05\/Usagi-3.jpg\" alt=\"Usagi (3)\" width=\"850\" height=\"843\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\">Spicy Tuna Pasta (P140)<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff\">&#8211;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-8656\" src=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/restaurant\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2015\/05\/Usagi-2.jpg\" alt=\"Usagi (2)\" width=\"612\" height=\"612\" srcset=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/food\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2015\/05\/Usagi-2.jpg 612w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/food\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2015\/05\/Usagi-2-218x218.jpg 218w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/food\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2015\/05\/Usagi-2-600x600.jpg 600w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/food\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2015\/05\/Usagi-2-290x290.jpg 290w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 612px) 100vw, 612px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\"> Coffee Jelly (P100)<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;color: #ffffff\"><em>**<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\"><em>Photos from Usagi Cafe, article by Jess Jacutan<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Las Pi\u00f1as City.
