Ria and the Monster Choco Caramel Cake

Who is Basti? That was one of the many questions answered during the press conference held last October 5, 2009 at the Basti’s Brew Legaspi Branch. Basti is short for Sebastian, son of Bong and Des Aportadera, one half of the couple of couples that own and manage Basti’s Brew. The other half is composed of Randall and Vanessa Ann Ong.

The two couples, along with journalist cum PR girl Jojie Alcantara, hosted the event to announce the exciting surprises that Basti’s Brew has to offer on October 10, 2009 when they celebrate their 10 years of serving good coffee and delectable food to the Davaoeños.

And they will be selling sinful MONSTER CHOCO CARAMEL CAKE for only P199 per slice. A sweet delight for all Basti’s Brew patrons. Imagine four thick (as in THICK) layers of moist chocolate cake with rich caramel sauce in between all covered by a fudgy chocolate icing… SINFUUUUL!
