Never mind the traffic on Sucat Road. I always find myself in Alabang for this restaurant. During the day, it is a warm, airy bistro with high ceiling that invites you to savor homegrown Chinese food favorites with a twist. At night, the lights get a little darker and you can easily drown in the chatter of friends by the long bar. Okay, some people have this impression that PF Chang's is out of their price point. This is no longer the case as the bistro recently launched their Cheers! cocktail hour plus affordable lunch meals. That's really a bonus for a ... Continue Reading...
IHOP – International House of Pancakes – to open in BGC!
Something to look forward to in the first quarter of 2013: IHOP or International House of Pancakes, the California-based family restaurant chain will open in Bonifacio Global City. It will be IHOP's first branch in Asia and the franchise will be owned by the same corporation behind California Pizza Kitchen/ PF Chang's China Bistro in the Philippines. I've never been to IHOP in the US but its large, delicious servings of pancakes and other treats should be worth salivating. It's also a big plus for us who love to indulge in our breakfast/brunches. Just look at the ... Continue Reading...
Private dining in Makati at Puey’s Penthouse
We loved our recent dining experience at Puey's Penthouse. It is nice to get away from the hustle & bustle of restaurants and feel like a guest in somebody else's home. Particularly if the private resto owner is also a fashion designer. You can shoot two birds with one stone. I had fun fitting on some of the clothes in Puey Quinones's bedroom prior to enjoying my five course meal :) Character is what the place has. First, the place is right smack in Makati Avenue's red light district. Familiar landmarks are the burger place Filling Station and a girlie bar teasingly ... Continue Reading...
What we ate in Bicol
I love Bicolano food (spicy, often cooked with coconut milk) and I was glad to get a sampling .... in Bicol itself. First stop was Sibid Sibid Food Park which was near our hotel. This came highly recommended, and true enough, the food didn't disappoint. Servings were generous too, at a reasonable price. I feasted on this Tinutongang Hanit (mud crab with smoked coco milk & coco heart which was only P195 per serving (crabs are otherwise much more expensive in Manila.) I was surprised this dish wasn't spicy. Still, I savored every taste even though eating this ... Continue Reading...
Healthy treats at Oat Square Tomas Morato
During one of those rare times when am in faraway Quezon City, media colleague Jerry Liao proudly showed me the entrepreneurship project of his three kids CJ, Jam and Jaya. They've opened a stall named Oat Square in Tomas Morato which focuses on delicious oat-based drinks and food products. I immediately liked the logo. The first thing that crossed my mind was: glad it's not another milk tea joint! I like the whole concept of focusing on oats since as the owners say, oats are proven to prevent diabetes, high blood pressure and the build-up of cholesterol. Not to ... Continue Reading...
