Pampanga will always be a culinary haven for me. On a recent trip to the Clark Freeport Zone, we made sure to try some restos the family has never tried before even though we were there for just an overnight. Ordering room service at the hotel isn't just my style ... I gotta get out! :D We arrived late afternoon and scheduled our dinner at Binulo restaurant. Their branch in Clark is quite spacious, suitable for drinking and conversing.They take pride in serving authentic Kapampangan food and am glad they didn't disappoint! Service was good too. Mostly, I took the ... Continue Reading...
Xmas desserts from Bizu
Nothing says posh and exquisite than your very own dessert arrangement from Bizu for your party. One of Manila's top patisseries is laying out a Land of the Sweets theme with each branch festooned with toy soldiers, dolls, candles, flowers and even the Sugarplum Fairy and her Cavalier. In the photo (right), we love Gaspard - a Christmas chocolate ornament ball on top of a classic financier cake. Inside, when cracked, is a medley of flavors – hazelnut praline mousse with passion fruit and orange cremeux. Surround your Christmas table with Macaron de Paris ... Continue Reading...
Watami now in the Philippines!

I dig the fact that they have a half serving of their in-house Watami Salad at P220 which already looks like a full serving to me. This salad can be a meal in itself ... Continue Reading...
at Va Bene Pasta Deli on a Sunday
I have my list of restaurants to try before the end of 2012 and one of them is Va Bene Pasta Deli. Their location in Petron Gas Station EDSA beside the Dasmarinas Village Gate in Makati looks like a good place to hang out since they are beside notable bakers Cuerva Bakeshop, San Lo's Famous and Karen's Kitchen.Too many outstanding choices in one roof, too little time! Va Bene it is, even though we already ate brunch in Aida's Manokan. I wanted to see what makes the place so raved by foodies. True enough, the small place was packed and we had to wait for our turn. ... Continue Reading...
