On most Sundays, this is one of my go to places after worship service of 10:00 AM. This has long been a pending post, but allow me to share my review or paghatol to one of the most accessible tea houses along Nueno Avenue Imus.

| Imus Branch - Bon AppeTea |
Top 5 Things I Like About It
1. Ambience and Convenience
Tables, lighting, background music quality, Aircon (AC), chairs - name it... they got it all. It appears that the management franchisee of this branch meticulously engineered the design to have it easy on the eyes, and drops a positive vibe on its first impressions.
The close proximity, a walkable timeframe of 2-3 minutes from our church is one of the reasons why i go here to chillax and wait for the next part of my church duty -- the Choir practice.
2. Outlets
Availability of this feature is not at all "tinipid". It's basically everywhere at the nooks and crannies set-up strategically for a diner to use an electrical outlet as needed. Which is one of my major things to look-out for whenever i'm staying for a while. These days, i think it's a must to install these in order for customers to immediately get to juice up their devices.
Yay or Nay!? i bet you agree with me that nowadays, all small businesses such as this should provide or at least cater for electrical outlet for the purposes of charging and plugging in our smartphones or tablets.
3. Waffles Breakfast
It's called the wicked waffle - and it comes in variety; with my favorite as Ham, Egg and Cheese at only 140 pesos. It's above the normal serving size - it'd be like somewhat 3/4th of an American size serving. Once you down it, you get to be full, given you have drank a glass of water or got served with your favorite house tea of your choice.
4. Yakult Tea
'tis like drinking a huge yakult - for real! And when i say it's the real yakult thing, it really is. You should try it for yourself. Go for the Green Apple Yakult Tea.

Top 5 Things I Don't Like About It
1. Loud Background Music at times
This disrupts even the normal conversations that you're about to enjoy with a friend or whoever your date is. At times, we have to speak a tad louder than the usual normal speaking tone for us to hear each other.
Kaya, ang ending... i would stand up and humbly request the barista to lower down the volume. In fairness earlier, the audio volume is pleasing to the ears, it's not at all blaring - not even soft but it was spun to a scale where you can enjoy a conversation and at the same time the music being played without intruding the clarity or focus of your thoughts.
2. Price Range of Teas
While it's common that milk tea and PH Tea houses range from 85 pesos to 100 pesos exclusive of sinkers or add-ons, I would say that Bon Appetea is no different. Their price range is a bit higher a compared to the market.
I wish they lower it down to a more reasonable price range esp the large size.

| Morocco Nights Milk Tea |
The Morocco Nights Tea is a cross of menthos and lipton, ha! ha! ha!, so if you're a fan of a mint flavored tea, go check it out.
3. Rest Room
The unavailability of this is killing me. There was this one time - my bladder was so full, only to find out that their in-house restroom is not yet fix or somewhat under renovation. This was like 3 months ago. And until now as of November 24, 2019 - the facility is still tagged as "unavailable".
I am really unsure - if that is truest in its sense or they aren't just not feeling for customers to use it publicly. I do hope they get to fix it soon.

Final verdict: 4 out 5
It's not a close-to-perfect rating. From my own perspective and opinion, this tea house is above average or it lands to a somewhat kind of classy and feel-good diner all in one. I would still definitely recommend it among my friends. But if you're a high-schooler or college student who gets to depend from your parents the lux of spending for your milk teas, let alone the same is true for your dabarkads. I would suggest you go across the street and try the less expensive ones.
Until next time,
