I had a hard time getting here cos it was a bit hidden from the roadside and the driver had zero idea where Dona Aurora St. is so if you're planning to visit, your best bet is to stop by Penaranda Park and from there get directions from the locals or better yet, pedicab drivers.
SMALL TALK CAFE
051 Dona Aurora St.
4500 Legazpi City, Philippines
Mmmm. Nothing really special about the place, the interior is okay. Tbh the only thing the place had going for them is the food, which is, as advertised, Italian cuisine with a local flair. The service though, idk if it was just me but they kinda seem distant, like they'd rather be somewhere else. idk they're not welcoming, a smile is hard to come by unless I smile at them first, not really pro active. It'd almost like they're thinking even if they don't go out of their way to make the customer's visit a warm and happy one, people would keep coming back because they're all over the internet. Which is a shame. I hope they were just having a bad day that time. BUT, i thoroughly enjoyed food, all, except the Bicol Express.:))
