It was my first day of class and my professor was absent so I had some time to chill. I was roaming around the Recto area when I spotted Cobo. It looked like a happy and lively place with its modern interiors and loud music.
Upon entering, I glanced the menu by the counter and realized that I was in a milk tea place. They had a lot of options so I asked the cashier for her recommendation. She told me that Cobo Milk Tea is their best seller so I took her word for it and ordered one. She asked me if I wanted to have Chew Pearl or Chewdle or both. Curious of what the Chewdle were, I instinctively answered both. I was handed my receipt with a number in it.
I found myself a cozy seat and waited until the counter just beside it called my number. The place had a really jolly atmosphere. The music was modern and the lighting were the colorful ones that you'd find in a bar. As I glanced around, I found myself surrounded by students. It wasn't a study place for meeting. But, it was a hangout where they could chat along as they enjoy their teas and snacks.

Tsinoy Foodies Verdict
Cobo is a nice place to hangout with its happy and cozy atmosphere. I am impressed with their ingeniuty in offering 12 oz. sizes (39 php to 49 php) to make their teas more affordable to students. I noticed every table ordered the 12 oz. sizes. I will surely come back and try their other offering when I have the time. I'm looking forward to try their Premium Milk Tea and Koffee Kraze selection and their Cobo Crunch snacks too.
