My Mom has been in the food business ever since she started working in Rustan’s Supermarket. She and my Dad started it in 1970. My Dad always recalls that he was opening the supermarket when my Mom was pregnant with me so I know the year! 🙂 Mom started Bon Apetit Patisserie and Cafe when there were no other cafes opening in Manila. It was a very popular place to eat in. Up to today she is still in the food business, this time for catering. This is just one of the many things my Mom does. Now I know where I get my knack for wanting to get into everything – though no one beats my Mo! She can multi task and be so energetic to do so many things all at once!
This is her little office and place where she has the food tastings and you can also have private functions here
From the 2nd floor you can see the commissary where everything is being cooked
And this is a little room where you can have a private meal with a small group. The tastings with clients are also done here
I remember that as a young girl, I loved going to The Yum Yum Tree! It was my favorite back then. There was a Yum Yum Tree where there’s a Rustan’s Supermarket.
