The past week had me really craving for fastfood. Kinda unusual since I would rather have real carinderia or canteen food than stuff that can be handed to me in two minutes. But I guess if you're a mom like me, buying Happy Meals with toys can't be avoided or finishing off the kids' plates of their leftover Chickenjoy and spaghetti :) Tropical Hut, an old burger brand in the Philippines, isn't really in my radar. But I have to admit their poster for their new offering called Sili Burger piqued my interest. At this age, am still a sucker for good ol' ... Continue Reading...
Manila’s 10 best ramen restos 2014 listed
So there's a list of Manila's 10 best ramen restos going around, and am bound to believe it because it's compiled by a Japanese, and second, because the article author Mr. Gaku Nakamura proclaims himself to be a "ramen consultant." Considering the number of restos and international ramen franchises sprouting up, this list is surely helpful to help us separate the chaff from the grain. Also, being a ramen consultant, I hope Mr. Nakamura is not biased towards some of his "clients." ;) I am sure everyone on this list have their own merits and have the word ... Continue Reading...
List of Manila’s 2013 best new restaurants from Esquire
Esquire Philippines does a portrait of John Lloyd Cruz's not-so-well known back in its February 2014 issue. Oddly enough, there's not a single photo of the heartthrob's face on its minimalist cover, for a change. But the info about his growing reputation as a valued patron in art circles is revealing, if not refreshing. Most of us don't know that JLC seriously dabbles in art and there are photos of all those paintings and sculptures in his apartment. At a street price of P200, Esquire is kinda out of my budget (LOL) but I realized I can pay even P500 for a dose ... Continue Reading...
Pinoy food alert! Sarsa Kitchen + Bar @ BGC
Pinoy taste buds are getting so sophisticated these days, what with all the international restos in Manila offering genuine French croissants, ramen, tonkatsu, yakitori, IHOP pancakes and soon the venerable cheap dimsum joint Tim Ho Wan. But there are times when you just want to escape from the culinary clutter and go back to your roots. Read: savor down-home Pinoy comfort food. This is what I felt when I dined at Sarsa Kitchen + Bar in Bonifacio Global City. The SARSA owner is thirty-something chef JP Anglo who gained fame as a judge of Junior Master Chef ...

Luna Specialty Coffee @ BGC
We're spending the weekend in Bonifacio Global City because my daughter was sick and had to be confined in St. Luke's. It's a golden time to discover the cozy little nooks in the area which I wouldn't find time to check out, otherwise. One of the spots on my radar was Luna Specialty Coffee at NAC Tower (which is owned by Rep. Lino Cayetano who is the brother of Sen. Pia Cayetano of Slice at Bonifacio High Street Central). If you wonder where this is in BGC,NAC is beside the new Globe building. Entering the coffeeshop, I immediately warmed up to the cool ... Continue Reading...
