My friends and I had a very scrumptious dinner at Puffs N’ Tarts Cake Factory and Restaurant last Thursday. My friend Weng has been asking me for ages to try Puffs N’ Tarts but we only found time to go there the other night. Besides, what are we to do? It’s Negros Day and blackout in most areas in Bacolod. Having dinner at Puffs N’ Tarts was perhaps the saving grace of a rather boring day spent at home.
At first I thought they were only serving cakes and pastries because of the name but they actually have pizza and pasta. The food was really good and we have to thank Chef Ryan Sy and staff for that. We had Caesar salad, Pizza Hungarian, Pasta Arabiatta and Pavlova and Banana Cream Crepe for dessert. Their pizza is unique because they are rectangles instead of the usual circular shape.
I was told their best seller was Pizza Roma which unfortunately we were not able to try. Blame my companion who’s not into veggies. Anyway, if their not-so-best-seller was already good then you might say their best-seller would be better.
Don’t be fooled by the facade of the building. It may not look like a fancy restaurant outside but inside it’s very cozy and suitable for a quiet dinner for two or even a big family dinner. Perhaps due to its location, where it’s not along a busy street, the place is not crowded and you have a little privacy from the prying eyes of bystanders.
I was surprised by the price since I did not expect it to be very affordable. Bacolod City is not short of restaurants with really good food but it’s still nice finding a place where you feel you paid for the food and not for the over-rated ambiance.

I haven’t been to this resto but it sure looks nice. The one I’ve constantly visited before is their branch beside Lopue’s Mandalagan. It has a very important meaning for me and my bf. This is actually the first place where we have dated, and at the same time that was the day when we became a couple.
Since then, we had always been visiting the place for some quiet time together… Actually, this is where we got our endearment for each other. He calls me “Puff”, while I call him “Tartz”. hehe we’ve been together for 3 yrs already. I just hope the resto will reopen again someday. I’d love to be there with him again.
Camille, nice love story! It’s really a pity that they closed Puffs n Tarts. I’m not sure if they still maintain a small area at Lopue’s Mandalagan for their cakes.
gee, thanks glady. actually the one beside lopue’s mandalagan has closed down, too. maybe it’s been a year already. i hope they’ll consider reopening the cafe. it makes me sad to see the doors closed everytime i pass by… anyway, thanks for appreciating my little story
