Llaollao (pronounced as ‘yao yao’) is a Spanish frozen yogurt brand, which started in 2009 and now has over a hundred branches in Spain alone. llaollao is best known for their Sanum cups topped with fresh seasonal fruits, sauces, and crunchy toppings. It’s for people looking for delicious desserts minus the guilt because it is healthy and even gluten-free. It’s not for people who prefer regular, sweet ice cream. We recommend the 3-layered Sanum yogurt cup that comes with 3 fresh fruits, 2 crunches and 1 sauce.

Tori Chizu offers different flavored cheesy baked rice with combined flavors of the East and West. Their Doria, or Japanese gratin/baked rice, are freshly prepared as soon as you order! Once you take that first spoonful of rice, expect a beautiful cheese-string pull that’s so hard to resist. It’s for people who are in love with cheese. It’s not for people who are allergic to dairy. We recommend the Beef Yakiniku, TC Original Chicken, and Chicken Curry Doria. Our insider tip: they also have milkchiz ice cream!

Lugang Café is a Shanghai-based café focused on providing quality and contemporary Taiwanese cuisine. It’s for singles, couples and groups looking for a place to have casual brunch, lunch, afternoon tea, or dinner. It’s not for intimate affairs. We recommend the Steamed Pork Xiao Long Bao, Honey Garlic Squid and Stewed Beef, Tendon and Turnip in Clay Pot for mains and the 12-inch Bellagio Breeze for dessert. Here’s a fun fact: Originally called Bellagio Café, the owners had to rebrand to Lugang (the literal translation of its Chinese name) because Bellagio has already been trademarked.

The Giving Cafe offers Asian cuisine serving coffee, other drinks, snacks, pasta dishes, sandwiches, and more while supporting local coffee growers. Let a sip of coffee or a bite of comfort food warm your heart because they bring together your favorite pick me ups, all while giving back to the farmers and communities where their coffee comes from. It’s for people who want to relax and unwind over good food and coffee. It’s not for party groups as it may be difficult to look for seats. We recommend the Champorado, Beef Broccoli, Sweet & Sour Pork and Frozen La Trinidad. Here’s a fun fact: TGC’s craft coffee comes from the Bloom line, “a special range crafted to support programs that solve issues preventing La Trinidad’s coffee farming community from harvesting quality coffee.”

Gringo is a homegrown restaurant serving Latin American and Tex-Mex specialties such as ribschickenburritos and more. It’s a quick and casual concept brought to us by the same group behind the Tokyo Bubble Tea franchise. It’s for office goers’ lunch breaks, quick bites and afterwork drinks. It’s not for foodies looking for many rice meal options. We recommend the Southern Spice Chicken, Gringo Baby Back Ribs, Truffle Queso Quesadilla, Crispy Taco. Our insider tip is they also have kids menu for the little ones.
