Straight from the organizers of Mercato Centrale, Soderno @ Molito - the newest weekend market in the South of Manila - made its successful maiden run last November 18-20. The official address is the Molito Lifestyle Center at the corner of Madrigal & Commerce Avenues, in front of Alabang Town Center and Ayala Alabang Village. I was supposed to be at Soderno last Sunday for my food project Chicken Delish but 'chickened out' at the last minute :) Excited isn't really the word. Frantic is more like it as I prepared for this project without taking a leave from my ... Continue Reading...
Mama’s Bar & Restaurant Boracay: the largest servings this side of Phili …
And by Phili I meant Philippines. The mouthwatering Philly cheesesteaks at The Cheese Steak Shop in Manila is another thing :). Anyway, when in Boracay, I recommend you try Mama's Bar, Restaurant & Chillout Lounge. Located in the area called Yapak, it's a little out of the way from the mainstream restos of White Beach but worth the penny if you're hankering for good sausages and great German food. This little dive is currently listed as the No. 1 restaurant in Boracay in Trip Advisor, the top travel review website by independent travellers (where am a senior ... Continue Reading...
Hanaichi Japanese restaurant @ Fort Bonifacio
Unlike other districts in Manila like Makati or Malate, there aren't too many Japanese restaurants yet in the Bonifacio Global City. That's why we happily tried Hanaichi at this condotel called The Luxe Residences on 28th street corner 4th Avenue. I felt something familiar about the place the first time I stepped there. And then I remembered that this was where the short-lived Spasso Italian Wine & Tapas Bar used to be. The sight of young Japanese women dining on the night of our visit warmed me up to the place. It establishes trust when I know, for ... Continue Reading...
Achiote Taqueria, Rockwell : Mexican food in Manila
Achiote Taqueria by Chef Robby Goco of Cyma Restaurant fame has opened in Rockwell Powerplant Mall beside Mamou Too! Chef Robby was with Ristras during its heyday until he bailed out.With this new food stop, his concept is to serve hefty Mexican fare with healthy ingredients. For example, the organic vegetables & naturally raised pork are sourced from Costales Nature Farm, free range chicken from Magnolia and kitayama Wagyu beef from Bukidnon. The resto is homey enough and there's an open kitchen for diners to see what's going on. Be warned though that the place is ... Continue Reading...
Kushiten: the best yakitori in BF Homes Paranaque
Last week, I was glad to find my Little Tokyo in the culinary wonderland that is the South of Manila. It was even good enough to transport me back to our time in Osaka where okonomiyaki and simple things like skewered asparagus with pesto sauce all tasted divine. Kushiten Yakitori and Kushiage is a cozy nook (almost like a hole in the wall) along President's Avenue, just a few steps away from my other favorite Japanese place, Kenji Tei. I get baffled by the name and only tried this place because of someone else's recommendation. Kushi refers to skewers (think ... Continue Reading...
