Craving For Something New At The Krave Café

“And the idea of just wandering off to a cafe with a notebook and writing and seeing where that takes me for awhile is just bliss.” J. K. Rowling

The term café is actually a French word that means coffee. A café is a restaurant that typically serves snacks and, of course, coffee. Cebu has its share of coffee shops or cafés that have opened all around the city in the recent decade. Be it small niche cafés to large US-based coffee shops, there is at least one coffee shop in every major commercial area in the Queen City of the South. While some cafés offer basically the same thing as other shops, there are a few aiming to mix up everything up to provide their customers something new every once in a while. One of these places is the Krave Café.

Krave Café

The Krave Café is a quaint coffee shop located along Salinas Drive, Lahug, Cebu City. The exterior of the café gives you an idea that it is not your typical coffee shop since it looks like a container van that was converted into a café. The interior also follows the same design concept giving the place an industrial chic ambiance.

The Menu

While Krave Café offers some of the usual coffee shop staple, it does have some menu items that are not typically offered in other places. One of these items on their menu is the champorado with crispy fresh danggit. If you are a regular coffee shop customer, you would not imagine a shop offering this on their menu. Another uncommon item on the menu of Krave Café is the yema cheese cake, which tastes as good as it looks. In addition, they also offer honey-roasted bacon, maple sausage, and saucy beef tapa.

​The out-of-the-ordinary menu items at the café shows the aim of the owner and chief baker of the place, Kimberly Pato. She wanted to have a simple and unintimidating place catering to people of all ages. In addition, the café also aims to change their menu every so often. The design of the place also complements the idea of preparing everything in the store. Kimberly also said the design facilitates flexibility and allows them to change the mood of the place by simply changing the accents.

​Krave Café also offers homemade fluffy pancakes that come in three variants: Red Velvet, Cinnamon Roll, and S’Mores. For the less adventurous types, they can order the red velvet and carrot moist cupcakes at the café. You may also want to get the chocolate chunk cookies of Krave Café and pair it with a glass of warm milk

​The Berrynana Smoothie of the café is also a must-try item since it is made from real bananas, blueberries and strawberries. Another drink you can try is the Krave Special Hot Chocolate, which is made of local dark chocolate or the tablea and topped with homemade marshmallow and sweet cream.
