cesar's cakes & cafe

top notch food at an affordable price.. as a guy, there are few places i can eat and really be full for under $10. its hard to even eat out for less than that, but at cesar's you can still get a "-silog" breakfast of fried rice, eggs, and a choice of meat for that price point.

i have also tried their pancit canton (kind of like a filipino noodle/chow mein) and pasta dishes. everything is delicious and served with a smile.

and as for the sweet side of things, i'm sure other reviews should suffice. yes, all that stuff isgoodtoo.

just eat here.

came to the store last week around 7:40pm. i am having cravings of pork steamed bun and sisg due to my pregnancy so i took my chance to find some in your store. the cashier non-empathetically answered me they could no longer cook sisig which i understand and also told me that if i can't find siopao on your shelves then it's gone. it was my first time visiting your store and this isn't agoodexperience. i checked the shelves, there was this siopao label but that row was filled with buns. i don't want to go back and tell the cashier because she might give me an attitude again. just ended up buying brazo de mercedes but a bit disappointed that the middle part is dry so we just ate the white part of it. just sad that my expectations were not met.

verygoodphillipino food. i tried the adobo chicken combo and green apple bubble tea. the service is quick and this place has left a lasting impression on me. shall definitely come back.

we had a reallygoodmeal here. we had the coconut and mango bubble tea, which were delicious, perhaps the best bubble tea i've ever had. we shared the lampia shanghai, which were tasty. i had the pork adobo combo with fried rice and noodles. really good, but saltier than i expected, which might reflect my tastebuds more than the dish. partner had the fried chicken and rice combo, which i believe he enjoyed. would like to cone back for some baked goods.

all their bakegoodare amazing! their cheese bun are asgoodas ever, the bun is so soft and fresh! the filling inside is cream cheese and cheddar cheese! it might sound simple, but it is unbelievable good. also they have the purple yum bread, it is sweet but so special! one of my favourite item. i have try almost all their cake in their display, the mocha cake, the cake layer is so soft it is sponge like soft. the cream layer is a little firm with real cream in it. so delicious! not to mention their brazo de mecredes and their leche flan! all just so good. i have yet to be disappointed by any of their dessert, including their weekend special that they have on their counter! every time i am close to the confederation mall, this is my must go to place to pick up their bread and cakes to bring home and enjoyed.
now onto their adobo pork combo, just like everyone said it is amazing! everything on that plate from meat to rice to noodle, no other word but just absolutely delicious. the meat is perfectly done and seasoned. their portion is huge as well. one of the best place in saskatoon with taste and the portion to match!
if you still have room, their halo halo is a great after-meal dessert! best to be eaten there, instead of take out, might get messy try to scoop things from the bottom to enjoy.

wow......... this place is the best from the garlic rice to the marinated meats cannot get enough only problem is the adobe and tapislog breakfast are so crazygoodits hard to try others i've been back probably 3 dozen times since discovered this jem and got through most items all very good. if your so lucky to get a chance to try the breads and buns on the baking rack your not gonna regret it. this place is unique and one of the best to eat in my opinion.

first time andgoodselections. - courteous staffs,goodatmosphere.
- breakfast favorites looksgoodand popular
-goodpinoy selections (tinola, sinigang, adobo etc and some specialties like dinuguan)
- tried the pakbet - not so good, eggplant and squash or kamote texture does not feelgood(seem chewwy/magayot), greenbeans is green but magayot rather than crunchy - i dont know why. also, there is meager strips of pork - i know we like it with some taba, just like how we have it back home.
- utensils, am not sure if theyre machine washed or manually, some remnants cling to my spoon (didnt use it) and knife (had to scrub it), i dont want to call attention so kept it to myself.
- had fresh lumpia,goodtaste, i would prefer less garlic thought and more veggies. i just had a concern since this is close to being a salad, careful if you easily get tummy trouble, i dont but i don't feel well during the day after lunch not sure why. its probably just me, but i bought extra to take home/share with my neighbor (i have to check with them tom).
- bought pandesal,goodtaste - mild sweetness on the bread, not sure when was it baked, can't find the date stamp - the bread texture seem more than a day.
- service could take long particularly during busy time,

overall i would rate 3 out of 5.
i would come back for pinoy specials, i provided a balance review for improvements.

one thing, i cook well and have wide spectrum of taste bud (many cultures).

mabuhay!. i've had cesar's on my wishlist for a long time, since it was at its downtown location. finally i was on the west side and had a change to have lunch there. i've never had filipino food except what i've cooked myself. so i ordered the pork adobo combo with pancit and garlic rice. my brother ordered the chicken adobo combo and we exchanged some of the pork and chicken. both were tender and flavourful, and the chicken was falling off the bone. loved the pancit, but the garlic fried rice was a surprise. i have always wondered how it would work, but it does! the portions were large and i couldn't quite finish the plate. so full. so happy. another one of us had the canadian breakfast. breakfast is served all day.

i will be back to try a few other dishes like caldereta, menudo, and lumpia. and halo halo! i actually wanted one to go, but was way too full. i wouldn't be able to work if i did. would need a nap instead. also, everything from their bakery looks amazingly good. i'll have to try the siopao. have always wanted those. and they have a selection of goodies from the philippines there as well.

i recommend it for anyone that wants to try something different, but they also have burgers, etc, that i hear are verygoodand with fresh buns from the bakery.

good way to start the day. for $5 i have a great breakfast there regularly. the place is bright and clean, the waitress is very friendly, and there is usually a spare paper to read at the counter. its agoodway to start the day.

crazy burger. i had the $6.95 lunch special deluxe burger and it comes with everything. cheese, bacon, onions, mustard, ketchup, mayo, lettuce, tomato, and pickles. it wasgoodbut super messy with all the condiments.

definitely get your money worth with this burger.
