Deco's is the inventor of the famous La Paz batchoy - an Ilonggo comfort food consisting of noodles in a hot bowl of soup, topped with pork meat, liver and sinful bits of chicharon. I was certainly glad to learn that I don't have to fly as far as Iloilo to partake of this mouthwatering treat because there's now a Deco's branch right outside the Magallanes MRT station in Makati. Here, special batchoy can be had for as little as P67 and can be paired with the so-called pre-war pan de sal for P3.50 or the Manapla puto @ P6.50. ... Continue Reading...
Westgate Center Alabang food tour : eight restaurants in eight hours
Alabang has become nearer to us ever since the family moved south of Manila. And in this district, I discovered a charming place which endeared me the first time I went there. It's called the Westgate Center in in Filinvest Corporate City (FiliCity), an all-in-one complex to shop, dine, play with the kids, indulge in beauty routines or spend on one's favorite hobbies like bikes and cars. The Kanin Club was the first restaurant I discovered and where I savored my first taste of crispy dinuguan. I remember how I promised to myself then that we'll come back to try all ...

Too bad I didn't get into the habit of memorizing the menu, being on honeymoon mode, LOL. But just to give you an idea, here's what a divine breakfast at Bistro Coron looks like , at P250 or so. Nothing makes a more perfect morning than a ... Continue Reading...
A YUMMY dinner at Tosca, Dusit Thani Manila
I have been a fan of the local YUMMY Magazine for the longest time. I always make it a point to buy the latest issue from the nearest Ministop or 7-Eleven, and have gotten a kick from trying out some of the recipes as well. I have just one complaint from this magazine: viewing its pages never fail to make me hungry. The pictures seem to leap from the confines of colorful paper and ink, looking ready to be eaten! My friends agree as well :D That is why when the invite from Yummy came for their media Christmas dinner (thanks Fran and Ro!), I was excited to attend. The ... Continue Reading...

It was a weekend of food events and after our cook-off, it was time to taste the specialties of Manila's best bakers and cooks. Am glad to have been invited to Our Awesome Planet's Ultimate Taste Test 3.0, although kinda sad that I missed the first two. The event was simply teeming with culinary discoveries and food finds! Kudos to our blogger-friend Anton Diaz and his wife Rache for organizing the successful taste test which gathers together Manila's best and upcoming food suppliers, to be rated by a bunch of discriminating foodies. The proceeds of the event will go ... Continue Reading...
