Landi without labels.

Ever find yourself confused with where you stand with somebody? You might think you’re on a date, but the feeling might not be mutual. Logically speaking, we’d tell you to just ask the person if they consider it a date, but unfortunately, we’re not an advice column. So, instead, we’ve curated a list of restaurants in Metro Manila that serve both coffee and cocktails. You know, just in case the romance turns out to be one-sided. Here’s where you can break the ice:
