Czaczacza Signage

 Step into CzaCzaCza (think Cha-cha-cha!) and discover a culinary sanctuary brought to life by Chefs Czarina and Marvin Sevilla, the creative minds behind Avocadoria. Tucked away in the lively heart of Marikina, this inviting, air-conditioned cafe has been charming guests for five years with a colorful menu of elevated Filipino dishes, handcrafted cakes, and genuine warmth. Whether you are a young professional treating yourself or a family eager for new flavors, CzaCzaCza invites you to savor a dining experience you will never forget.

 

Why The Taste of CzaCzaCza Stands Out in Marikina’s Food Scene

Located just beside Rodic’s and within the periphery of Marikina’s capitol, CzaCzaCza offers more than just a meal – it’s a destination. The shop’s exterior features cheerful, patterned colors, while inside, cool lighting, tasteful decor, and gentle pipe-in music greet you immediately. With seating for 25+ guests, it’s intimate yet lively – perfect for socializing, relaxing, or celebrating life’s little moments.

 

But what truly sets CzaCzaCza apart is its unwavering commitment to quality, innovation, and community. Every dish showcases the freshest ingredients, artisanal flair, and a deep respect for Filipino culinary heritage – reimagined for modern palates.

 

Meet the Visionaries: Chefs Czarina & Marvin Sevilla

Behind CzaCzaCza are the dynamic chef-partners Czarina and Marvin Sevilla – also the proud proprietors of Czarina Restaurant, another Marikina gem. Their combined passion for culinary arts drives everything from the creamy truffle pasta to the celestial cakes baked with precision.

At CzaCzaCza, their mission is simple: to serve quality, innovative dishes that celebrate the essence of Filipino cuisine while creating a thriving community where friends and families connect.

CzaCzaCza serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

 

Signature Cakes That Steal the Show

No visit to CzaCzaCza is complete without indulging in their legendary cakes. Each slice is crafted with premium ingredients and baked to perfection. Here’s what to order:

  • Knafe Chocolate – The specialty Dubai-inspired flavor with delectable pistachio bits inside a cake form. Also available as Knafe Cake Balls. Take your pick!
  • Oreo Cheesecake – Creamy, crunchy, and utterly irresistible.
  • Triple Chocolate Cheesecake – For true chocoholics.
  • Chocolate Rum – A boozy, rich delight.
  • Tiramisu – Classic Italian elegance with a Filipino touch.
  • Black Forest – Layers of chocolate, cherries, and cream.
  • Triple Biscoff Cheesecake – Caramelized lotus bliss.
  • Cake Platter – Perfect for sharing (or not!).

These cakes aren’t just desserts – they’re the reason many become regulars at CzaCzaCza. You might even see them joining in the various banchettos being held here around Marikina.

 

Savory Staples: Modern Filipino Comfort Food

While the cakes are celestial, the savory menu at CzaCzaCza is equally stellar. Each dish reflects the chefs’ dedication to innovation without losing the soul of Filipino cooking.

  • Creamy Truffle Pasta – Earthy truffle meets silky cream sauce. An elevated classic.
  • Beef Caldereta Pasta – A fusion of rich, spicy caldereta and al dente pasta. Bold and unforgettable.
  • Crispy Pork Kare-Kare – Traditional peanut stew with a crispy pork twist. Served with bagoong on the side.
  • Czaczacza Garden Salad – Fresh greens, local veggies, and a zesty dressing – a light start to your feast.

 

Refreshing Drinks to Complement Your Meal

Pair your meal with one of The Taste of CzaCzaCza’s signature beverages:

  • Blue Pea Ternatea – A floral, color-changing tea that’s as beautiful as it is soothing.
  • Fresh Cucumber with a hint of Calamansi – Crisp, citrusy, and ultra-refreshing.
  • Smoky Butterscotch Frappe – Sweet, smoky, and satisfyingly cool.
  • Minty Chocolate Cream – A decadent, mint-chocolate dream.

Prosecutor to Farmer: Respond to Subpoena Now!

With the knowledge that farmers or the masses have no means to get good defense lawyers (except from the Public Attorney's Office or PAO whose officers hardly follow the examples of Attorney General Persida Acosta) fast, if they ever get one at all,  Deputy Provincial Prosecutor James Gerald R. Florendo issued the subpoena below requiring respondent - a farmer from the rural barangays of Santo Domingo in Ilocos Sur, to respond to the accusation of cyber libel, the same day that the farmer received the subpoena delivered by the police in Wednesday, January 7, this tear   The respondent was required to answer the allegations of the town's Municipal Agricultural Officer (MAO) Randy Jose Reburon who filed the case.

Built a Nation, Abandoned by It: The Silent Battle of the Jeepney Pioneer

Francisco Motors Corporation  (FMC) is one of the country's pioneering jeepney builders. Over the years, FMC transitioned from refurbishing war-era jeeps to designing its iconic models, including its modern electric jeepney launched around 2018. FMC’s modern electric jeep costs around ₱985,000/unit— far cheaper than government-endorsed modern jeepneys priced between ₱1.3 and 3 million. 85% locally built (body, motor, chassis); batteries still imported, but for the first 1000 units only. These modern jeeps are designed with urban routes in mind, offering a 150 km range (approximately five trips) and utilizing 50 kWh batteries, which can be charged via the CCS2 standard. As add-on options, the package includes modern features: AC, CCTV, GPS, cashless fares, wheelchair ramps for PWDs, speed limiters, and emergency exits—while keeping the classic jeepney aesthetic. Although FMC produces affordable, culturally resonant units, several obstacles hinder its inclusion in the governmen...

Why This Café Is the Next Big Franchise Opportunity for the New Generation

  The name “I Want Cofi” was inspired by a simple, everyday craving—the moment when you want something comforting and familiar. While coffee is at the heart of the brand, I Want Cofi was created to be more than just a coffee shop. “It’s a journey in every cup.”   At first glance, the cafe may appear as a cute dessert spot where you can hang out and relax. Nonetheless, upon closer inspection, IWantCofi Maginhawa operates a single storefront service similar to one of the Philippines' largest fast-food restaurants.   You can order at the counter, scan its QR code, use the automated machines, all of which offer several options for your convenience, or use the QR code on our visual with the IWC Maginhawa logo and address on the lower right of the photo.
