Mercato Centrale

We tried out Mercato Centrale, the newest addition to the weekend markets in Manila sometime before Christmas. The good thing about this place is that they have both saturday and sunday markets.

 They organized all the participants in a few tents based on which category they belong to like organic food and supplies etc, and there is an outdoor area for the food being cooked. I liked how they organized this because it gives you enough space to go around without bumping into too many people in Christmas season or smell like barbecue trapped indoors.

Some things we tried out in Mercato Centrale:

Desserts from Low Cal. Perfect for those with high blood sugar like my sister Choking. She can have cake without thinking too much if our mom will kill her. We liked their carrot cake and calamansi cheesecake.

Bale Dutung's Pan de Bagnet and Pritchon wrap. I liked the pritchon wrap with different textures and flavors exploding in your mouth. I think the pan de bagnet needs more ooomph!

Triple beef burger from flamed. Not perfect more me since I want veggies on my burger too but meat lovers would love this.

Fresh Lumpia.

Milk Tea.

Plants vs Zombies cupcakes...now this is cute!

They placed around signs to clean as you go and this gave me a proper place to eat the goodies.

They also have non-food stuff. I got christmas presents of water-based citronella spray from All Organics. There are more you can check out too.

Mercato Centrale can be located at the Fort near Bonifacio High St (The Spa and Agave side) and is open on Saturday and Sunday mornings. They're going to have a midnight Mercato soon to cater to the graveyard shift people at the Fort area.
