Table Suggestions: Dessert Break at MoMo Food + Drink

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cheesecake
I rarely I find my self in the city of Manila. So when the opportunity to explore the flavors of the oldest part of the city presents itself, I grab it. Sadly, I’m in between meetings and I only have time for a cup of coffee and a couple of desserts.
I’m fine with that. Besides as a friend of mine would say, dessert should always come first.
I’m headed to Robinson’s Manila and a little place called MoMo Food+Drink. Brought to you by the same people who created M Café, MoMo is corner café in the new wing of the mall. With its high exposed ceiling and wall-to-wall glass windows, this eatery exudes a New Yorkesque, lofty feel–a stand out in Manila’s urban jungle.
MoMo Food+Drink reminds me of something. I look at the menu on the wall and I realize it feels like Chelsea Café and Market–an array of comfort foods: brunch items, pastas, pizzas, sandwich, hot and cold drinks.

Smores Bar
A hit and a miss. Yet my experience at MoMo Food+Drink was like a relaxing oasis in a sea of concrete. Would I return? Absolutely. I’m looking forward to getting stuck in Manila again.

I used to love MoMo! But quality of service declined, serving sizes became smaller, prices went up, and the quality of the food was inconsistent. I haven't been there in two months, but there was a time I could eat there everyday.

I, too, super <3 the Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cheesecake. Momo is usually crowded when I come (maybe I'mjust unlucky) but this little thing is worth beating the crowd for.
That and the battered fish sandwich (fish and chips sandwich?).

Like one of the previous comments , I used to really LOVE MoMo. It was really something a great dining experience or hangout place during its earlier days. However, after a few months, the quality of the food declined, service was still okay, and the prices went up. :(
I went there today after 2-3 months and I guess I wasn't really disappointed with what I ordered (It was cookie dough sheesecake but not similar to the one pictured) but it's still not the same as it used to be.
