Food is delicious with great salad options, a good mix of what is familiar growing up like callos, stroganoff arroz a la Cubana and new stuff. Tilde has great breads and house jams and marmalade too! Perfectly sweet! Desserts are just divine: Pistachio Sansrival, Turtle Pie, Olive Cake, and the best Apple Pie! The environment is friendly too, a great place to spend a meal with family or to just be alone and get some work done

I've been intrigued by the camote pandesal, and I finally got to drop by earlier today and get me some. I thoroughly enjoyed them! I hope to dine in one of these days and sample the coffee, too.

Ordered the French Toast and it was super good! Considering it worth the price. My friends ordered the Vietnamese Iced Coffee and according to them, it was really good, too.

Only sad thing about this place is that it closes at 7pm. But this is probably the best Cafe to hangout in Poblacion.

We visited this cute and cozy cafe on a rainy day so it was a wonderful time to just relax here. I had the Bacon Bolognese which was good and they had big servings as well. The bread that came with it was wonderful. The sour dough bread here is good! They're actually famous for their sour dough bread. 😍

My fave snack here though was the one with the home made sausage and the brioche toast. The brioche toast was great! Plus the home made syrup that came with it was fantastic! The home made sausage was just 💕💕💕

I love the ambience of Tilde’s Cafe. It looks so cozy and quiet. It’s good place to study or meet friends. I ordered Cappuccino cafe in hot. The cafe staff asked us to try some cookies including sesame cookies, butter and chocolate. So nice of them! Was able to try their turtle pie too!

Diverse menu- whether I'm craving a caesar salad or squid ink pancit it's got classics and twists on local and western fare. Consistent quality. Good environment for individual work, group meetings, or just hanging out to see who passes through from the cast of neighborhood creatives.

This has to be your must-visit cafe in Poblacion! Everything is made in house or sourced from handpicked locations. They take real care and pride in what they serve.

Tilde Salad was awesome - greens, beet, pickled carrots, walnuts in raspberry vinaigrette dressing. Quality ingredients and lovingly put together.

Smooth Siphon Coffee - one of the best blends I've had with bold aroma and smooth taste. The beans are sourced from Bukidnon.

Kimchi Reuben Sandwich - shredded corned beef, kimchi, pears and melted cheese in home baked sourdough. Comes with a side of salad and fries. This could be my ideal lunch. Nice blend of flavors with the spiciness of kimchi balanced with sweet pear.

Also picked up a can of excellent Salabat cookies. Very crispy, bite-sized and just the right sweetness

Turtle Pie - amazing chocolatey taste with pecans.

How about breakfast at Tilde? I loved the wagyu tapa and their take on the "sausage mcmuffin" is inventively delicious. The place is normally quiet and perfect for a solo diner. Don't forget to take home their cookies -- the mango shortbread is addictive!

I decided to try the CHICKEN SANDWICH. It was just okay, the chicken filling was cold and had way too much mayonnaise.  I'll try the sourdough bread next time and the Apple Pie. 

Also, since we're still waiting for Holy Smokes to open, we tried the other types of cake and cookies available:

- Turtle Pie: so good! I cannot! 
- EVOO cake: I didn't know they used to sell this cake in Yardstick. This is also good, not your usual cake. It may look simple and too plain but this one's refreshing and light to eat.

- Lychee cheesecake: not really a fan but Lychee lovers will surely like this one because you can really taste lychee in every bite.

- Cookies: they have salabat and champorado. Both are interestingly good but our favorite was the Cashew something. Sarap!!! :)

We also pre-ordered their "BESTSELLER" which is the CHOCOLATE TRUFFLE for an occasion and to let my family try it. I was kind of expecting a lot since the Turtle Pie was really good (like really good) but sadly, the chocolate cake wasn't that great. It was good, not too sweet which is perfect for someone who like me, doesn't like sweets! But it was not moist and there was nothing extraordinary. I guess we were all just expecting more since it's pricey for almost 1300 for a whole chocolate cake. Considering the price, I don't think it's worth it.  :(

Ony also pre-ordered TURTLE PIE because he loved it too. But again.. his family did not liked it as much as we did. :(

It was another bonding session with my buddies. We decided to walk to this cafe because according to Google Maps, it was a good 8-minute walk from our 1st stop. Little did we know that it would take more than that to find this. Not sure if it was the route we took but we eventually found it. This cafe is located in the quiet and residential side of Makati. There’s a nearby school which is a good indicator that you’re near this small cafe. Its interiors were very simple. The first half seemed modern with all those chairs but at the back, that’s where it becomes a little quirky. We decided to sit at that corner since we were the only ones at that time. Some customers came but mostly to take out food. They have a lot of offers aside from their pastries which includes some cold cuts.

Tilde is one of your hole-in-the-wall coffee places with homey interiors. They have these fancy, colorful chairs but I wasn't able to get a decent photo.

I ordered a cold brew ☕ and it was okay. On the other hand, one of my friends ordered a handcrafted strawberry soda and didn't quite like it.

I also bought a jar of malted cashew cookie and it didn't disappoint. Even my parents (who hates sweets) loved it. 🍪

A few decades back one would not scout the busy streets of Poblacion for food.  Expats usually hang here due to the sheer number of bars in the area.  This is Makati's answer to Olongapo. 

Fast forward to today,  only a selected few is privy to the metamorphosis of Poblacion.  A couple of years back,  small business owners started to set up shop here.  I ain't sure if the ones in Felipe Street started it all but whoever the instigator is...I am eternally grateful.   Poblacion is now known for a place where to get good food.

Unlike the popular foodie destinations,  wherein a long stretch of restaurants can be found in one street,  Poblacion is a place meant to be explored by foot.  Think of it as a maze where in one would have to explore every nook and corner to get to the pot of gold.  Similar to the old adage,  good things are hard to find.

One of the reasons why i fell in love with Poblacion is it's colorful history and it's rebirth.  Food and history makes a good combination. 

One of Poblacion's hidden gems is Tilde Café.  

| Chili Con Latte.   Hot coffee warm milk dollop of vanilla ice cream with a sprinkle of chocolate and chili.   Two of my favourite things fused together -  coffee and chili!  Yay!  Who would've thought that coffee would taste 10x awesome with a lil heat?!!  The coffee is smooth,  perfect proportions of coffee and milk.  The chili.... Uhmmm,  i can't really explain but it eorks well and it's delicious.

| Lychee Cheesecake.  I have never heard of lychee infused cheesecake till now.  This tastes like the actual fruit!  Man,  i loved every bite.  I like the fact that it is not too sweet and the crust is not too thick.  The cheesecake filing is smooth with some lychee bits.  I think that lychee is not fir everyone but a gamble wouldn't hurt,  believe me,  this is worth it. 

Oh,  expect more reviews as i went back multiple times.  I'll be reviewing their Lime Cheesecake,  Orange and EVO Cake,  Turtle Pie and the Malted Cashew Cookies.  Yes, I like Tilde a lot.

My Ateneo batch mates were looking for a place to take a visiting classmate, Gilby to dinner when Mon suggested Tilde in Poblacion, Makati. Mon says the food is food but the place a a bit small and parking is a bitch.

But we settled on Tilde since most of them have chauffeurs to drive them around. We reserved the big table in the middle.

The food didn't disappoint. We had the callos, duck confit with fried rice cooked in duck fat, wagyu tapa, mushroom stroganoff, pumpkin soup, Tilde Salad. We loved it all!!!! And Tilde has craft beer. Green mango beer. Yum.

And the desserts are to die for! Genie the owner used to own Sugarhouse. So now you know the desserts in Tilde is to die for.

Tilde also sells ready to heat meals, bottled products and delicious sinful cakes.

The atmosphere was very chill, it's like hanging out at a friend's house - but with a whole over level of food. 

My favorite out of the dishes I'd sampled was the French Onion soup, I love French Onion soup so it was a good thing that it was awesome in taste and presentation.. The dips were also good, such as the spinach and the artichoke - I honestly could just eat them and have the soup.

There's also the pasta. I had the Sisig Carbonara - now that dish confused me a little, since I'm used to sisig having an actual egg in it. The Mushroom Stoganoff is definitely something I'll be going back for, I tried some of it and wanted more - but sadly they ran out (it was near closing by the time I visited).

The Lychee Cheesecake was definitely yum. I love cheesecake, and it did not disappoint. There were a lot more choices, dessert-wise, but I was happy with my order and too full to order anything else.

Service was excellent, with staff very near you, not hiding behind the counter or in the kitchen. They're approachable.

The pastry and coffee options are excellent! You really feel the love in the way they prepared it. For the main dishes, I'll have to give them a 2nd try. I was a bit underwhelmed with the pasta. Overall, it's worth checking out the place. :)
