Just when I thought I was becoming tired of the Greenbelt restaurants comes now Mr. Jones. It was certainly nice to meet "him" that warm Thursday afternoon, looking every bit like the hip diner I can hang out for hours and hours in. Hmm, I wonder if they have free wifi ~ my attention seems to have been focused on all the food awaiting us. With two appetizer rounds, a sampling of three main courses, dessert and an ice-cream filled drink, the tasting that awaited us was particularly heavy. I should have skipped lunch :D We were in Mr. Jones coz it collaborated ... Continue Reading...
EK Biki Waterworld opens at Enchanted Kingdom
This long, hot summer makes us wanna beat the heat, literally! We're now left with two choices, it seems: stay indoors with the airconditioning in full blast, or dive in where the water can caress our skin. For the latter, we can now choose to go to Enchanted Kingdom in Sta. Rosa which has opened the first and only world-class inflatable water park, in cooperation with BikiWorld of South Korea. The latest attraction is called EK Biki Waterworld which consists of six giant inflatable pools with water slides, games and rides that families can enjoy in a safe and ... Continue Reading...
Hello again, Mario’s!
There were two reasons that would make preggy ol' me brave the rush-hour traffic to Quezon City on a Thursday night: our wedding emcee, Spanky, and his invite to try the delectable dishes awaiting us at Mario's, one of the most enduring restaurants in the Tomas Morato area (operating for 30 or so years now, wouldja believe?) It was time to meet again owners Mrs. Nenuca Benitez and her son Mr. Fil Benitez who were quite excited to introduce their new house specials. One thing about Mario's (in the few times I've dined there), their food doesn't disappoint and their ... Continue Reading...
A P600 four-course meal at Harry’s Bar, Venice Piazza, McKinley Hill
We've eaten a few times at the fairly new Venice Piazza in McKinley Hill, the latest restaurant strip to open near the Fort. I hear the whole complex has a Venetian theme and there will even be those faux gondolas in the future. It all sounds exciting, but the restaurants we've tried on this strip has so far been wanting. Old Vine Grille was a costly disappointment and Stackers burgers weren't really as juicy and tasty as one expects to be. I am forever waiting for Ristras Mexican Grill to open, mostly because San Juan is a long drive from where we live. But the ... Continue Reading...
The new Barbara: revealed! (updated)
She looks good enough to be a movie star! So this is how Barbara Cruz, Manila's latest "mystery girl," looks when totally transformed and made over. During a "reveal party" held at the Baypark, Manila, Barbara was finally identified as a 21-year-old I.T. consultant in a BPO company. She first caught the attention of many people due to her thick brows and old-fashioned (Maria Clara) way of dressing. ... Continue Reading...
