Sweet Inspirations has been a staple of Katipunan residents & students for many years.I always see that bright white chef's toque logo whenever we pass by the area. I finally got to experience it when I had a power lunch with a friend.
First impressions: time seems to have stood still as seen from the interiors. Not necessarily a bad thing but it does need to be as bright & inspirational as its name. The a/c feels like it's overdue for maintenance or replacement as it was not cool enough. The fridges fridges & display cases filled with various cakes & breads are inviting you to taste them.
Food: Menu ranges from Filipino breakfast & rice staples to Mongolian bowls, as well as desserts & beverages. I got to try their customizable Mongolian bowl and it's great value for money. It comes in 2 bowls as the serving is about 600+ grams. So best for 2.
I also saw their serving portions of breakfast items & other staples from other tables and they looked good. Something to look forward to on a next visit.
Service: There's 4-5 servers for about 100 customers from the looks of it. Service was a bit on the casual side, so it took a while before they got to take our order. Still, service is commendable.

Overall: 3.5 / 5. Worth visiting for a date or with...

It was a long time back when I last ate here with my family so I kind of forgotten how the food tastes like. We avail their breakfast buffet and it was awesome! 5 stars for the taste! It was like a made at home typical filipino breakfast. There were dried salty fish, omelet, arroz caldo, garlic fried rice. For desserts, they had puto bumbong and bibingka, seasonal mixed fruits. The viands were accompanied by seasonings special mention on the vinegar and fish sauce apart from the salt and pepper. We left the place with our tummies so full and good enough to skip lunch. They may have a 5 star review if the airconditioners are working fine. It was pretty hot making it uncomfortable for the customers. But overall, you get value...
