So the concept is very much practical to the typical Filipino - you can way enjoy getting a full meal or a delectable coffee/cake meal without getting broke. The place is also big and inviting enough to get a group of friends to chat or whole parties to celebrate. Plus, after enjoying great dining in Nezz 74 Café, you can hop around Obrero St. with all the bars and restos it has to offer.

I didn't believe the account of my sister was credible. But who wouldn't say no to a free meal, eh? My sister, a down-to-the-core Lachi's fan, always tells me that the restaurant serves the best meals in Davao. It is also the supplier of cakes for most of the coffee shops in this city. It is located in the suburbs - away from the bustling downtown area. When my sister and I went there, the place is kind of underwhelming. It was very small and simple looking of a place, very typical of a Filipino karinderya.

I was wrong…very, very wrong …

When I had my first taste of their Unforgettable Spare Ribs, it was heavenly bliss. The spare ribs are soft, juicy, and flavorful - you can eat it to the bones. Every bite of the spare ribs and you'll enjoy your heart out. I could write a novel of how great the eating experience was, but it all goes down to how my feet were fleeting under the table. The meal only costs Php 93.00 (converted to dollars that would be barely USD 3.00!!!). My sister ate a Mozzarella Cheese and Tomato Chicken and that one is also not to be missed. I enjoyed the evening bonding with my sister - talking about our dreams in life and the depressions being swallowed by the plate full of viand and hot rice.

The spare ribs were really unforgettable…

My sister and I also had a couple rounds of dessert. We had their delectable Sylvanas - creamy, crunchy, and the right amount of sweetness. We also had some of their cheesecakes that melt in your mouth and not in your face! We also had their symphony cake - music to the mouth with the combination of chocolate, chiffon, and nuts.

As we waited for a taxi outside to get home, it was interesting to find that they were a lot of people who waited outside the little restaurant. They were waiting for their turn to eat the Unforgettable Spare Ribs, since Lachi's have very limited seats. Even writing this review right now makes me crave for the unforgettable again…

Oh my, my mouth is beginning to water again…I am now a certified head-over-heels for Lachi's.

The coffee shop offers hot and cold coffee, beer, fraps, cakes, pastas, and other meals - so you have a lot to explore. You should check out there banana coffee - which after drinking makes you feel that you have eaten a whole bunch of bananas! My friends and I tried on some of their cakes (Mango Cream Cheesecake, Blueberry Cream Cheesecake, Cheesecake on Oreo, and Tiramisu) which cost from Php 60.00 - Php 120.00 (converted to dollars that would be barely USD 1.00 - USD 4.00 each!). But never mind the price, each bite is heavenly and it complements well with their hot coffee (I had some Café Americano at that time). I shall say it was all bliss, happiness, joy, fun, love, and extreme exhilaration for me. I love fine dining with the camaraderie of your greatest friends on the table…
