Frappe is a common drink for Filipinos nowadays. It is cold drink usually coffee base with whip cream. Here in the Metro we will find different coffee shops that offer frappes in different flavor.

And as first stop let’s talk about NYC Cafe here in LKG Tower Makati with my friends (em and rom). At first we thought NYC coffees are expensive but actually they are one of the cheapest in the metro(definitely an advantage… konti lang ang damage ^_^). It actually taste good but the down side is NYC doesn’t offer a variety of flavors not unlike other coffee shops and the fact that they only have few branches(2 pa lang nakikita ko sa Makati e).

If your going to ask me if I will have another Frappe on NYC Cafe, my answer is YES (lalo na pagtag-tipid).
