AJ and I managed to take a little break from the holiday rush last week, and holed up at the lounge of the New World Hotel in Makati for a simple afternoon tea. Simple because we just had some English Breakfast tea (it's TWG, natch!) and scones from the hotel. The English Breakfast tea from TWG was divine and luxurious, but the scones were ... READ MORE
Food Post: Suzukin
Oh, let me tell you about Suzukin. We always pass by this little Japanese restaurant on our way home but AJ and I were only able to try it sometime last year with our wedding Ninang, Ninang/Mami Caro. Too bad the place was not well-lit. It looks really small with its low ceiling and dark-colored chairs and tables. I soon forgot about the cramped space when the food were ... READ MORE
Food Post: Red Engine Diner
This little diner is located at The Columns in Ayala Avenue. The first thing you will notice from the outside is this poster of a big burger, which was very effective in making us feel suddenly hungry. The diner has a loft which serves as the eating area, and the chairs are dressed up in red-and-white leather for that diner's look. I am totally digging this look - ... READ MORE
Ramen Bar
It's been a while since we've been to Venice Piazza and we're happy to be back there 2 Saturdays ago - just for this: I felt so at home inside this restaurant. It's very minimalist in design, with orange walls that create a lively space ideal for casual dining. The menu, which is printed in table place mats, is also "minimalist" in content. There are only ramen bowls, ... READ MORE
Som’s Noodle Haus (Authentic Thai Food)
We always pass by this restaurant with a weird name on our way home from Rockwell. But it was located inside a gated residential area in a street called Alger Street, and for a long time we never figured out how to get there. And we finally did one Saturday night when we were near Rockwell and saw that it only takes a right turn from the main road to get to Alger ... READ MORE
Sunburst Fried Chicken
Sunburst Fried Chicken is Cebu's version of Max's Fried Chicken. Their fried chicken is known for being crispy on the outside and juicy inside. And that's just about it. I have read food reviews saying that there's nothing exceptional about Sunburst fried chicken, except the crispy skin, and I can agree to that. Their version of fried chicken is not at all ...

Durian Pie
I don't eat durian mainly because of its strong and penetrating odour, but when I tried a Durian Pie during a work trip in Davao City 3 weeks ago, I just couldn't believe it has durian in it. And how could I? It doesn't smell funny and it looks so heavenly: The taste simply blew me away! It tastes like a custard pie but distinctly original because of the ... READ MORE
Vanille Cafe & Patisserie
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
