Noriter: a unique cafe in Taft Manila

Noriter is a unique establishment along Taft, showcasing the inspired playground cafe. This was established in 2010 with the designed that was conceptualized for their customers. This is my second time in this cafe, and frankly, there’s a huge improvement from the first time I stepped foot in this place.

The place has stuff that was customized by their customers- mostly students. There are notes on the cups, sticky notes with lots of messages, vandalized chairs and walls. I can say that this is a nice place for students to have their time off school, or if not, this is where they can study or do their homework. Good thing is that they can stay as long as they want, no time limit.

Aside from this cozy place, there’s a lot of food choices, too. From pasta, rice meals to clubhouse and more…

Club House (Php180) – This wheat loaf bread has some bacon, egg, lettuce, tomatoes, and cucumber. Great pair with a cup of coffee.

Carbonara with Donkatsu (Php299) – Look just how creamy this is. The aldente pasta is indeed swimming in white sauce, topped with crispy and tender Donkatsu.

Donkatsu with Rice – If you are not a fan of pasta. Get this combo with rice, Donkatsu and shredded cabbage on the side. The tonkatsu sauce is just perfect giving it with sweet-salty taste to the meat.

Beef Soy Bulgogi (Php199) – That’s tender and flavorful beef with eggs and vegetables on the side.

Noriter Cheese Rice (Php220) – Cheese lover? Then you must order this dish. That’s rice topped with melted cheese and then baked. My personal favorite.

Spicy Noodles – This noodles tasted just like the instant noodles there is. Nothing special, just probably the cheese and chili flavor in it.

Honey Bread (Php180) – Now, that’s a thick bread topped with some ice cream and cinnamon. I love this so much as it really is so filling.

There are so many drinks to choose from at Noriter. I ordered the Choco Chips and I liked that it was not overwhelmingly sweet.

Coffee Jelly (Php155)

Choco Chips (Php155)

Caramel (Php155)

Overall, Noriter has got some great food and drinks but some were just ok for me. What I appreciated the most is that the price range is affordable for students near the area.
