Must Try TRI-MONA !!

TAGALOG translation: "Try mo na! Sige nahhh!"

Dancing wind chimes, hanging trinkets, parading native ecoproducts, conversing paintings and arts, greeted me at this shop, called TRI-MONA.

Sounds familiar? For the mall-goers in Quezon City, it does!  It's a "spin-off" from a popular mall with similar concept of offering various products to consumers, ONLY, Tri-Mona limit theirs with organic, natural, local.

The shop which partners with PGX, promotes FAIR TRADE (articles of the same are posted on its wall) and markets indigenous products of communities and people's organizations.

The interesting cafe with interesting stuff had an interesting MENU: I tried the Bacalao made of crushed premium "daing" labahita, sauteed in ORGANIC tomatoes, served with warm lightly toast pita bread. Perfect with freshly squeezed dalandan juice, sweetened with coco-sugar. That, as a starter!

For the main course, I devoured on Davao Tuna, crisp-locked Organic Vegetables and steaming hot Organic Rice! If only I had space in my belly, I would have enjoyed a succulent dessert... that is why I have to go back.. Go back on August 28th for the GREEN NITE. Will you come along? :)
