Carmina's Late Lunch Vegetable Cream Chowder from Old Baguio Cafe, Quezon City, Philippines

Carmina doesn't need to go to Baguio City to get some fresh vegetables. All she needs to do is purchase food that is ready to eat. Carmina went looking for vegetables soup for her meal. Carmina decided to order vegetable cream chowder from  Old Baguio Cafe . I had placed my order through Grab Food Delivery arrived with a brown paper bag and inside a plastic container it was sealed up no spillage.  The vegetable cream chowder was still hot placing it in a bowl.  It has bread floating on the vegetable chowder soup. The price of the cream vegetable chowder soup 250.00 pesos ($4.55) not including delivery fee. The serving is big enough to fill me the whole day. It was very good not to worry not eating any seafood in your cream chowder. I am on a challenge staying away from any meat or shellfish.  It depends on if you're a type of person if you eat a lot or someone like me can get full easily. NOT SPONSORED.
