E’s Updates on Katipunan
Just short updates on what’s new along Katipunan Avenue, QC.
- A new building has just been recently finished called Oracle Building. It’s beside FBR building and it has Sizzlin’ Pepper Steaks on the first floor along with soon-to-open Tapa King.
- Music 22. New videoke place in the first floor of Elizabeth Hall. This is where Watson’s used to be.
- Around a year old already I think but still I think it’s worth mentioning as a new addition to Katipunan Avenue: Petron Station with all its new food & dining shops. You’ve got Chowking, Starbucks, Gonuts Donuts, Ineng’s BBQ, a steak place and an Italian place (I’m so forgetful already) and I bet some other somes I failed to mention.
- Also a year old (or more?) is Perspolis, a Persian restaurant on the 2nd floor, on top of World Topps and Bento Box.
Will do more updates on each of these places once I get to take pics… I’ll be happy to receive any comments on this though! Just comment below!

Breaking News: Fire at Barangka
Black smoke is spotted around 4:30pm beyond the Ateneo campus, near the Riverbanks area. Since I have no confirmed reports yet, we assume it is in Barangay Barangka in Marikina. See pictures below:
Sweet Inspirations
Sweet Inspirations is a restaurant and bakeshop located just in front of the Ateneo campus, on the other side of Katipunan Avenue.
It has been there forever, as I remember it in my high school (or even grade school?) days. I think it’s one of the long-lasting food establishments there along with Cravings.
They have quite a selection of food ranging from Pinoy to Korean to Italian dishes. They have Asian, Italian and other Western food on the menu. Combo meals and merienda meals for the thrifty student are also on the menu, ranging from P80 to P140.
They’ve got good sinigang and bibingka too.
They’ve also got a Mongolian buffet. Although it seems like the regular buffet, they don’t have the look-through glass screen to see the chefs actually cooking your selection. However, they do have a glass display of all their cakes and pastries. Yum! Try out their mud pie and banana cream pie. They’ve got sylvannas and yema too. They also make their own pan de sal along with several other bakery products.
Price Range: P80 to P280 (for a meal/merienda with drinks per head)
