Head on the Eastwood for fab food finds

Over two dozen home-based specialty food shops line up the Eastwood Mall Weekend Gourmet Market, which opened last April 24. Pastries, cakes, rare gourmet cooking ingredients, fine liquor that were known before only through word of mouth or online stores, have found a home that their loyal buyers can go to regularly.
From spices to sweets, greens to pates, there is a fabulous food find for foodies in this gourmet market. Cakes, chocolate, and cookie corners are present, with Filipinos’ natural penchant for sweets. Connoisseurs will enjoy the nut-filled butter cookies sold at the Russian Cookie House, while the more adventurous taste buds will be intrigued with the distinctive taste of Anatolia Cuisine’s Turkish pastries. Bringing out the kid in everyone are Candy Cakes’ sweet concoctions inspired by the world’s most loved candy bars such as Reese’s peanut butter chocolate cheesecake, Ferrero tart, Snickers cake, and S’mores cheesecake.
The Weekend Gourmet Market at Eastwood Mall is open from 11AM to 11PM on Saturdays and from 10AM to 10PM on Sundays, and will run until the end of June. For inquiries, contact 709-0888 or 709-9888.
