If you’re looking for a restaurant to eat at with good food and big portions at a cheap price then dine at Good Taste! This restaurant serves a variety of food and drinks at a reasonable price on a big plate so you know you’re getting what you paid for and maybe even more. The usual guests of the restaurants are with groups of people who are celebrating or having a family reunion because they serve in big platters for groups to share. They have 2 branches, one at Legarda close to Burnham Park and one at Rajah Natanda Street behind Center Mall, both good choices to dine in but Good Taste Legarda is preferred if you’re are eating with a large group.

Taho is a Philippine sweet delight made of fresh soft tofu, caramelized sugar, and clear pearls, but at La Trinidad’s Strawberry Farm you can have your taho in strawberry flavor; the dessert is made with the usual ingredients but has added Strawberry chunks and strawberry juice to the caramelized sugar, giving the brown dessert a bright red color.

Champorado is best eaten on a cold day while the rain is pouring, this dessert is a sweet chocolate porridge topped with milk but in Baguio’s Le Monet Hotel, their champorado is not brown with milk on top, but is a bright pink color with a strawberry on top. A must try if you prefer strawberries over chocolate.
