TARA Filipino Diner is celebrating its birthday with a Purple Pancake for only P1—yes, you read that right, you can get one Purple Pancake for only one peso!

Masa Madre: Unlimited Croissant Sorbetes

If you cannot stand the unbearable summer heat, Masa Madre Bakehouse has a flaky, butter-loaded coping mechanism in the form of Croissant Sorbetes. It's exactly what it sounds like: a flaky, buttery croissant stuffed with sorbetes in flavors like Cheese, Ube, Mango, and Cookies & Cream.

According to the mechanics, each customer receives a croissant for the first serving, and for the next order, a maximum of three dinner rolls may be claimed. All succeeding sorbetes claims will be served in a cup.

The Unli Croissant Sorbetes promo runs on the remaining Saturdays of April (18 and 25), from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., exclusively at their BGC Cafe branch: Cocolight Building, Taguig City. It’s strictly one person per order (no sharing!), and the promo is automatically forfeited once you step off the premises.

And naturally, the restaurant is celebrating with its signature Halo-Halo (also J-Hope’s reported go-to), which you can score for free with a minimum spend of P2,200, whether you’re dining in or taking it out to go. The only catch? You'll also need to show your ARMY membership card (digital or physical). This Manam promo is available until April 13.
