Enjoying Life’s Little Pleasures at Magnum Manila

11.15.2014 by Leah //

Would you believe that AJ and I visited Magnum Cafe 3x last month?  Parang sabik lang sa ice cream, ano?  Hehe! The first time we were there, we tried not only their celebrated dessert menu but their savory dishes as well.  I felt like being transported to one of the scenes in Chocolat, where Vianne prepared a full course menu for Armande's birthday, and there ...

A Spooky Halloween

11.07.2014 by Leah //

Our office had its annual trick or treat last week, and I think a lot more kids were spooked this time because there were far more eerie decors set up and some even looked real, pati ako nagugulat! For this year, our group decided to put together ghosts, bats, giant spiders and skulls in a graveyard setting.  The creative team (hi Ricky, Jen, Myrna and Rhea!) made most, if ... READ MORE

Discovering the Rich Indonesian Cuisine

10.26.2014 by Leah //

Sometime last month, I received a basket full of food stuff from Indonesia (thanks so much, Mba Dyah!): It was my brother who hand carried them all to Manila (thanks Dino!) and I got really excited after seeing all those boxes of Munik seasonings.  AJ and I are already fans of Indomie instant noodles (they have really interesting flavors!) so being introduced to Munik ...

The Good Stuff #6

10.22.2014 by Leah //

It's been a while since I last wrote about food, and it's not because I have ran out of food discoveries to share.  I guess I got too comfortable instagramming my food and sharing it real time, instead of making an effort to write about it in the blog. And because I'm not creative at all when it comes to captioning my Instagram photos, I would leave out a lot of details that ... READ MORE

An Afternoon of Stationery and Cupcakes

08.23.2014 by Leah //

After months of searching, I finally found available Cath Kidston paper products at National Bookstore today! Saw these at their branch in Rockwell Powerplant, but I'm not sure if they're available in their other stores as well: But guess what?  I surprised myself by not buying anything!  Nalula kse ako sa prices nila.  I can't find one that costs less ...

Power Breakfast with Nesvita

08.13.2014 by Leah //

I've not been diligent in updating my blog these past few days because I've been bringing work at home again (and answering emails at 10 p.m., yikes!), plus I've been 'home alone' for a week now because AJ is on a 3-week technical training abroad. It's our first time (as married couple) to be away from each other this long, but thanks to Viber and Skype, we are able to stay ... READ MORE

A Taste of Vietnamese Banh Mi in Makati

07.30.2014 by Leah //

Thanks to my Ninang Caro, a food aficionado like me, AJ and I were introduced to this small, unadorned eatery at Mayapis Street in San Antonio Village, Makati serving really delicious Vietnamese banh mi or bread sandwich: Bon Banh Mi. "The National Geographic has ranked Vietnamese banh mi as one of the most 15 delicious sandwich of the world. According to Richard ... READ MORE
