One of the places we frequent in Cebu is Vanille Cafe & Patisserie for their yummy cookies and chocolate bars. On our recent trip there, my sister-in law, Juvvy, introduced us to their delectable french macarons and now we're hooked! Pretty french macarons on display. Only P40.00 each. Our picks: Tablea (brown), Peppermint (green) and French Lavender (purple). ... READ MORE
Awesome Cobo!
I was introduced to Cobo's bubble burst tea during our recent trip to Cebu to celebrate Liam's 2nd birthday. It's called bubble burst tea because this tea drink has bubbles that "burst" when you bite into it, releasing a sweet-tasting juice. I was able to try the Mango-Peach Green Tea + Mango Burst and it's awesome, indeed! The mango peach green tea was very ... READ MORE
Sugar Art with ‘Made in Candy’
There's something new at Rockwell and everyone's checking it out: It's Made in Candy - a Singapore-based candy kitchen specializing in hand-made candies. Often called "sugar art", these candies are hand-made by candy sculptors or "candy artisans". They come in different tastes, textures and colors - but the ultimate surprise lies inside the candy ring in which you ... READ MORE
Pan de Naga (Pugon Pandesal)
My sweet friends from Naga brought me these oven bricked (or "pugon") pandesal today - hand-carried from Naga City which is 7-8 hours away from Manila (by land). I've tasted lots of pugon pandesal here in Manila but the one from Naga is more delectable. It's also a bit salty, which is how I like my pandesal. After all, it's call "salt bread" in English. I like my ... READ MORE
Chocolate Pecan Muffins
Our breakfast this morning - Chocolate Pecan Muffins from S&R: They're big, have the perfect sweet flavor (that means not too sweet, in my palate), perfectly soft and moist texture (not dry unlike other cheap muffins), and are generously topped with bite-sized pecan nuts! You can buy them in packs of 4 at only P189.95 (or about P48.00 per muffin). You can ... READ MORE
A Surprise Gift from Eirene
They say big surprises come in small packages but not this one from Ms. Eirene of Eve's Cakes and Sweets who dropped by our office today to deliver a cake order to an office colleague, and she left me this very delicious gift: It's Eireen's version of Sans Rival (french words for "without rival") which, as you can see in the picture above (taken in my new Sony Experia P ...

I found the best Blueberry Cheesecake at Facebook!
I LOVE cheesecakes. My ultimate indulgence is the New York Cheesecake from Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf, but my ultimate favorite is the blueberry cheesecake, which I get from the Red Ribbon Bakeshop. It used to be that I buy blueberry cheesecake only at Red Ribbon. I love their blueberry filling very much, as well as the rich, creamy taste (and texture) of the cream ... READ MORE
Wok Inn (Malate)
AJ and I happened to pass by the old Wok Inn restaurant along Remedios Street, Malate on our way to Robinson's Place Manila yesterday and decided to take our late lunch there. We used to frequent this place at its Makati branch (the one in Parksquare 1 just across Dusit Thani Hotel) but that one has long closed so this one is the closest we could get to. You could ...
