Perhaps reading from a number of previous entries you can easily decipher my constant interest in Banapple. Ever since the days it only had one branch right up there in Katipunan extension, I've been a big fan of the cafe/restaurant. More than just the desserts and the courses they serve there, the ambiance, the homey-feel and the service the provide definitely makes lining up for seats worth it.
I actually discovered Banapple around 3 or 4 years ago via Dessert Comes First. Been a fan of this blog for quite a while actually - constantly looking for unique places to eat. :) Just last week, when I stumbled upon the blog, the author, Lori Baltazar was conducting an online contest with a dinner for two at Banapple as the prize. Being both fan of the brand and a believer in digital PR, I jumped right in and joined the contest. :) haha! Well, I didn't win the dinner for two but I won a consolation prize of a keychain + umbrella. :) For a fan, that's not baaad at all.
Next thing you know, I went to newest branch at the Ayala Triangle Gardens with my friend Tina to claim my prize. So much for having it as "consolation". Because apparently, the keychain gives me 5% discount across all Banapple branches! :) Yes, panalo! :D
Oo na, mababaw na. haha. Ganun talaga minsan pag fan. :)
Thanks Banapple! Thank you to the owners, GJ and Maricel! More power!
