Monsees Cafe

Interiors of Monsee's

Monsee's Cafe is a quaint, humble restaurant located in Katipunan Avenue near the White Plains village. Upon seeing the exterior, you will be enlightened with how homey the place feels like. Entering the resto, you will be greeted with a light ambiance and the smell of freshly baked breads and pastries.

Pasta Bolognese

We ordered two dishes, the first being the pasta bolognese. 


Bolognese (n.)- meat-based sauce for pasta originating in Bologna, Italy


It is served with two slices of their own fresh loaf bread. It was very meaty, but the taste of the pasta itself was very bland. It would have been better if the pasta was able to balance the amount of meat and the tomato sauce they used, so the pasta wouldn't be dry. 

Four Cheese Panini served with Salad in honey mustard dressing

 The second one was the four cheese panini served with salad in honey mustard dressing. 


Panini (n.)- a sandwich made with bread roll, customarily from a roll or loaf of bread


The bread used for the panini was ciabatta and tasted freshly baked. The cheese, on the other hand, was salty because of its different flavors which overpowered each other. The flavor of the cheese was nakaka-umay to the point that we didn't even get to finish the whole plate. Another part of the dish was the salad in honey mustard dressing and we were delighted with the fact that the salad greens were fresh. The honey mustard dressing complemented the salad very well.
