Catch Up Dates at Soi  Soi Thai Restaurant Review Soi Ground Floor, North Wing, Mall of Asia (MOA) Complex Pasay City Contact No.: 02 8364177   Payment: Cash, Credit Card  Facebook My friend Sylvie and I share a lot of common likes -- books, cute stuff, crafts and well, food. When she and I met a few weekends ago, we started our food tripping and mall hopping with a somehow late lunch at Soi, a Thai cafe in MOA. THE FOOD Chips and Peanuts | free While waiting for our orders we were served with free appetizers -- Thai chips and salted peanuts. Yum! I was ecstatic while lunch started.

Strawberry Cheesecake, Chocolate Caramel Carrot Cake, Tiramisu THE DETAILS I enjoyed my first minutes in this little cake cafe. Look at this wall frame -- everything chocolat. And here is their menu, hanged for every one to see. I like this certain portion of the menu, so I zoomed in to take a shot of it. Love the font and the wavy way which it was painted. Reading, you now know how to correctly pronounce Chocolat. Silent T.  They have these waiting numbers with chocolate quotes. I got a particularly famous quote about life and chocolates. Cute, huh?  OUR CAKES Strawberry Cheesecake for me. It's creamy and all, but it's not my type of cheesecake. Strawbe...
