Black Canyon Coffee opens its first branch in SM Southmall. |
Black
Canyon Coffee, one of the most successful names in coffee and dining in
Thailand recently opened its first branch in the Philippines. With over 220
branches in Thailand alone, not to mention their other branches across Asia,
it’s good to know that they have opened a store in our country. Located at the
Food Strip wing of SM Southmall in Las Pinas City, Black Canyon Coffee has a
cozy interior with blends of browns and colorful pastels. Their interiors alone
will tell you right away that the foods and specialty drinks they serve aren’t
boring—because they’re not your usual coffee shop.

A comfy and friendly ambiance with cool green and yellow pastel colors amidst browns. |
|
Just like any coffee shop, they do offer pastries, sandwiches and other sweets. |
What
makes them different from other casual coffee dining place is that they do not
serve only coffee and pastries. Black Canyon Coffee helps relive the rainy
season with a wide menu of delicious comfort drinks and International and Thai
food delights sure to leave anyone wanting for more.
An
appetizing fill of Grilled Pepper Salmon Salad will surely help brighten your
day. Generous slices of peppered salmon on a bed of green lettuce with
julienned carrots on top with dressing on the side.

Everyone
will surely enjoy Fried Prawns with Tamarind Sauce served in an appetizing new
way. It’s hard to resist that deep-fried crispiness served with sweet and tangy
tamarind sauce.

Their award-winning Pad Thai |
For
variety, try their award-winning Pad Thai and spicy Tom Yum soup. It’s comfort
times two. Eat both meals with gusto and your stomach will thank you for it. If
you’re in for something really spicy, order their Green Seafood Curry, it’ll
definitely wake you up on a sleepy afternoon. I should know for in my case, it
just did! And I had to tell you this, I’ve instantly fell for their Pad
Thai—it’s generously filled with shrimps with a sliced green lemon for that
sweet and nutty taste you’d surely love.

This Green Curry adds a bomb to your palate! |
Speaking
of love, I super love Black Canyon Coffee’s Cranberry Frappe—they’re just
right, not too sweet with generous cranberries on it. You could also try their
Mexican Iced Coffee served on a really cute shoe glass. It had Kahlua (a
coffee-flavored liqueur) on it, so it must be really good. I vow to order it
the next time though. For non-coffee drinkers, there are iced teas, green teas,
milk shakes, and fruit smoothies for you to choose from. There are actually 24
specialty coffee drinks and 40 special beverages available, so you’ve got
plenty of options. You see there’s really more to look forward to each time you
visit.

My Cranberry Frappe: two thumbs up! |

Finally,
find more comfort in a variety of choice for a sweet ending to cap off your
delicious meal: Premium Chocolate—chocolate ice cream with a bar of chocolate
topped with whipped cream, Tin Roof—vanilla ice cream topped with a pretzel
with whipped cream and chocolate syrup or Fruit Salad—strawberry ice cream with
different fruits and syrup with whipped cream.

I
was able to ask its owner, Mrs. Wilma Dy (President of Royal Thai Food
Philippines) if there were certain foods that had to be tweak in order to suit
the Filipino palate. She said there was none for customers can be assured that
Black Canyon Coffee prides itself on its very strict and consistent standards,
so what we have in the Philippines are as the same taste as it is in Thailand.
And best of all, the prices are very affordable and the serving are really
generous.

So,
forget the usual coffee shop, here’s Black Canyon Coffee giving you reasons to
enjoy good life with a belly full of happy comfort food and yummy drinks. I can assure you, it’s worth all the
travel to the South. But in a few years time, I could already foresee this
business thriving more and perhaps expanding to a place near me, perhaps
somewhere North. True
to its promise, Black Canyon Coffee is a drink from paradise…available on
Earth.J
Black
Canyon Coffee is now open at the Food Strip of SM Southmall, Las Pinas City.
