Cafe La Bonne Vie

I've always been so curious of this place: Cafe La Bonne Vie. La Bonne Vie, is French for "The Good Life" and they serve good food as well. My friend Paulie already told me about this place and gave really good reviews, so this week I went there with a friend to test it out. I found out that this is actually owned by my grade school classmate, Adrienne Umali, who went to a culinary school and is now the chef of this cafe.

It's too bad that I was not able to take really good pictures with this place because I was not planning to blog it. I just took photos with my camera phone, so pardon me for the low res pictures.

I have nothing but good things to say about this place. I love that it's so cozy and private and so relaxing even though it is located along Lopez Avenue. I suggest that you try it.
