Happy holidays! I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas break. As for me, it's the usual downtime of the year filled with get togethers and catching-up and, much to my chagrin, eating!!! Bingeing and over indulgence this season is not for me, as I must exert effort not to add to my poundage to avoid any rework and panic dieting weeks before the wedding. Hoho!
For today, I'll be sharing our experience with Pan de Amerikana when we decided last minute to have our prenup in their Katipunan branch. This humble bread shop, with its main branch located in Marikina, is noted for its quirky upside down shop.
Original location for our pictorial is at Ninoy Aquino Parks and Wildlife, but we had to change locations due to the gloomy weather that greeted our morning. Good thing Pan de Amerikana Katipunan was available that day.

Rating Scale: 1 - 10 (10 being the highest)
Service: Prenup Venue
Peso Power: Free (You must eat at their place though)
Rating: 7
Pros:
- Highly accommodating. We checked with the shop just freaking 2 hours before the shoot and we were so lucky that they don't have a scheduled shoot that day and so we were approved with our request.
- Budget friendly. No fees to pay for a shoot. They just request the couple and suppliers to dine at their shop.
- Affordable food. Yes this is counted because this is part of the requirement for any pictorial request.
- Interesting outdoor structure. This will be a good backdrop for a shot from across the street. Sadly we weren't able to do that since it was raining that day.
Cons:
- Katipunan branch is small and limited. This is quite a disadvantage because it directly affects any photo shoot.
- Quirkiness indoors is not so apparent and hard to capture in photos as most of it (the quirkiness) are hanging from the ceiling -- or should I say floor? Hehe.
- The place is quite dark for a pictorial.
Despite all these, Pan de Amerikana still saved us from rescheduling the shoot once more.
