I was grateful to be invited to the grand opening of the Cerealicious Café in Megamall last Saturday! I am overly excited to come then because I’ve been a fan of Cerealicious bowls for over 2 years now. Introduced by my officemate, Khris, it became a regular treat for us to drop by Cerealicious Greenhills every time that we’re gonna have lunch there.
Started their humble beginnings in 2005, a group of 5 friends thought of serving cereals in a brand new way. And from there, the first cereal bar opened in the University of Santo Tomas in January 2006.
What caught my attention when I first visited Cerealicious was their menu. They serve from Pirates of the Cadbury-ean to Jelly Maguire to the Banana Jones and the Temple of Doom. Like c’mon! Who would not want to try cereal bowls with the coolest names ever? And if they are familiar to your ears, this is because these titles came from blockbuster movies that you watched. Awesome right? You can get a small “Trailer” bowl for Php60 or the big “Blockbuster” bowl for Php120.
I was so glad when I saw in their facebook page that they opened a café and that they are now serving sandwiches, pasta, entrées, salads and a lot more. Take note – everything has cereals on it!
Crissy Balatbat, my goodie good friend from Cerealicious made me try 2 of their entrées. So diggin’ starts now!
First, the Bubba Shrimps – Php185
Southern style shrimps served with their special Gambas Paprika sauce. This is served with herbed rice too! This is heaven. Crissy was in front of me when this vanished into thin air! Haha. I like their sauce. It brings a taste of Mexico to my senses. And i love it that the shrimps are very easy to eat. So if you guys are planning to try something new at Cerealicious Café, you have my recommendation on this!
Second is the Creamy Chicken Casserole – Php145
Look! Rice Crispies on top! Sweet!
It’s a new way on how to enjoy your favorite chicken vegetable dish. I like it that it has cubes of cheese which makes it creamier. Served with herbed rice as well. The rice crispies adds texture to the dish. A crunch -- which makes it more interesting. Not too salty, it’s just perfect. Heavy too! So this delightful entrée can be shared by two.
After I’m done eating my entrées, of course, I will not leave until I get what I loved first on them. A cereal bowl! Woooooh!
A Blockbuster Bowl of my favorite Hurt Loacker! Everyone should try this! Seriously! I mean it! This bowl has Milo Balls, Loacker Choco Wafers and M&Ms! Tempting huh? What makes a bowl of Cerealicious more special is their “Snow Milk”. If you pour milk on your cereals at home, Cerealicious has their Snow Milk at the bottom of every bowl. It’s like ice cream slash snow cone slash frozen milk. What’s in it is their secret of course but whatever this Snow Milk has, its for the win!
Cerealicious Café is a place for the whole family! Whether you’re a kid or a kid at heart. I’m pretty sure you’ll enjoy this place as I did and have fun diggin’ on those cereal bowls and come back again again and again.
Thank you Crissy Balatbat and to the whole Cerealicious family for inviting me over. It was such a pleasure! :)
