Great hand made French food

Dec 2019 • none

If you ate looking for a great hand made french food, bread and pastry this is the place to go. The owner is French and is passionated, better to call for booking in advance.

A Secret Delight!

May 2019 • solo

We dined here by chance as the premises seemed bright and airy, inside the staff were helpful and friendly explaining the dishes to us in a very professional way, we weren't hurried in any way and really enjoyed our meal, a big plus was the air con was not intrusive at all, delightful and lovely experience. We will be back

Great Food

Very good food, beware credit cards often don't work due to the bad telephone service. The menu is extensive.

the tarte tatin was good but the mille feuille was the one that made it for me

Jul 2018 • none

Maybe I'm just not the tarte tatin kind of person and this is what this place is known for. My friend and I made the journey (everything is "far" in Cebu because of the traffic) for the this pie but it was the mille feuille that I took back to Manila. Excellent!

Tymad.. makes my tummy mad. Mad for more!❤

Sep 2018 • family

One of the factors I consider in choosing a cafe to dine in or chill apart from its mouth-watering desserts and deliciously rich coffee, is the perfect ambience. I love everything about Tymad ❤ The desserts are to die for. Coffee is.. well, good. Or better. The best one I tasted so far is from another coffee shop, Cebu-based. But the Tymad coffee doesn't really go far below the level of richness from A 😊 It is still good, I must honestly say. I love its serene location, far from the noise and chaos that city life brings. Oh, did I say that the desserts are yummy?!? I guess I did. Worth the reiteration tho ❤

The search for "soups" in Cebu city has been a disappointment. Too watery, too salty, too bland, list goes on (trust me I know, cause I cook most of my food). Last night round "10-ish", out of the idea of convenience, I took a walk down on my street on my hunt for soups nearby, everything in were just merely closing, so I kept walking a few more steps and finally stumbled to this lively looking bistro. Their staff was friendly, warm, and very alert even on a packed night, their Menu was very well organised. Their were two main soups that were offered, tho I requested for the "chef's specialty of the night for soups", my waiter wasn't startled as the usual Filipino " oh crap I don't know let me just scream to my buddy on the other side of the room" which for quite awhile I got used too that seeing NOT seeing this was very surprising. He was confident enough and told me with a smile they have pumpkin soup for tonight. Didn't had to wait long for my food to arrive even on a fully packed night. On my first sip, I was astonished how everything was just right. The creamy texture, the temperature, the presentation, the broth didn't indulged too much with the pumpkin, nor did the pumpkin made the soup too sweet. They contemplated each other which is a bit hard to pull off with pumpkin cause its either too sweet, too sour or too watery. And in my surprise they even added a bit of mussels which goes VERY WELL with the soup. It was so delightful to have this in my mouth that i ordered another bowl to go. And in glee I also took one of their "cheesecake" and I was not disappointed either, the texture was PERFECT, not too sweet tho not too bland as well. This place is spot on "just right" with their food. And I am very glad to have found you.

Decent mains, great pastries

Jun 2018 • family

Took some family to this place during a recent visit to Cebu. The food was very good and the dessert pastries, which is their specialty, were really fantastic. For starters, we ordered foie gras which was really good,. Two of us ordered the steak (onglet) - medium which was more medium-well and medium rare which was closer to rare. The beef was good but they just missed on the right level of cooking doneness. One of us ordered the lemon sole which was excellent, while another ordered the Lapu-Lapu Tymad, which was somehow a bit tough. The pastries we ordered to close off the meal were excellent - the chocolate dome (which was a mousse), the mille feuille and a blueberry cheesecake. The wifi was unfortunately pretty useless.

A little piece of France in Cebu

Apr 2018 • couples

My wife and I held off going to this place till our last night... big mistake! The food is amazing, and we wish we went their earlier so we could keep going back! Initially we went just for dessert after a meal elsewhere... I ordered the strawberry and vanilla cake and my wife got a crepe... the quality of the desserts were so good we made sure we made time to go back the next day before catching a boat to Bohol. I’m not going to lie, both my wife and I have a sweet tooth so we ate mainly desserts but the croque monsieur was delicious and the Mille feuille was just to die for... but all the other food that was sent out around is just looked and smelled amazing! A must try place if you love your French food...

Best French Bistro & Cakes in Cebu

Dec 2017 • family

I'm not much a sweets person but their cakes are divine! They focus more on the quality of ingredients and their cakes aren't overly sweet from sugar especially their cheesecakes and their chocolate cakes. They're just perfect. They also have a great breakfast menu and their servings are quite large.

Excellent!

Oct 2017 • friends

Had superb meal last night with really good service. Would recommend the sole meunière - simple but easy to get wrong. It was excellent! Followed by the dark chocolate 'bomb' (I hope have that right) a rich deep mousse with a chocolate crunch / biscuit base - amazing! Rich, smooth & delicate. You can taste the 'care' that goes into making it, a chocoholics dream! Can also recommend the croissants & pain au chocolate for breakfast, a great way to start the day in Cebu city!
