You can either love ’em or hate on ’em, but hipster restaurants are definitely here to stay. Gone are the days when we would go straight to commercial shopping malls for lunch\u00a0because hole in the wall restaurants are\u00a0on everyone’s cool radar. Now, whoever said sushi and burritos combined can never be a thing lacked imagination–because this restaurant in Quezon City just made history, at least in Manila.<\/p>\n

Booky Tip:\u00a0<\/strong>They only accept cash transactions for now.<\/pre>\n
Speaking of their drinks, a hipster joint wouldn’t be complete without hipster items. Westwood serves their wholesome non-alcoholic drinks in<\/strong>\u00a0Erlenmeyer flasks<\/strong>. Choose from\u00a0a colorful drink collection —\u00a0Blue Potion, Cucumber Citron, and fruit shakes (also available in yogurt-based options).<\/p>\n

But apart from their affordable meals and Instagram-worthy interiors, it’s really their\u00a0desserts<\/strong>\u00a0that stood out and took center stage for foodies who have already visited Westwood.\u00a0Sugar levels are definitely on high with their cereal bars,\u00a0specialty chocolate-dipped wafer cones<\/strong> and ice cream sandwiches<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
Some of their ice cream flavors include Blue Monster, Mudpie, and Pistachio, while cereals can be Milo, Fruitloops and Rice Crispies.<\/p>\n
