Hello everyone!
I recently returned to my hometown, the Philippines!
The time when I returned was during Holy week, which is like a public holiday in the Philippines, where the country is largely Christian.
During Holy Week, all stations will be closed for four days and most commercial facilities will be closed or will operate on reduced hours.
Meanwhile, Starbucks was open 24 hours a day during Holy Week, which is longer than usual, so I decided to stop by!

Enjoying Starbucks on the terrace in the morning... it feels so elegant lol
I ordered a chicken barbecue sandwich.
Apparently there are similar products, but they are not available on the menu in Japan.
Anyway, it was delicious! I wish I could eat it in Japan...lol
For my drink, I ordered something called chocolate chip Creamer. The reason is that I don't really like Coffee.
In Japan, there is chocolate Coffee made with chocolate powder and chocolate sauce, but at Starbucks in the Philippines, they offer a chocolate Frappuccino instead of a Coffee!

By the way, my companion forgot the exact name, but he ordered a drink made with passion fruit and dragon fruit called something like Passion Dragon Refresher!
Passion fruit and dragon fruit! A very tropical, Filipino drink!

After enjoying a delicious Breakfast, I bought a Starbucks tumbler with a Philippine exclusive design as a souvenir, and took a stroll around the hotel, feeling like I was in the Philippines for the first time in a long time.
We visited markets and night markets in the Philippines and enjoyed the laid-back atmosphere that can only be felt during Holy Week!!
