Kusina Selera: Davao City’s best new restaurant
Travelling to Davao City is such a pain for me. I figure I can already go to either Hong Kong or Taipei with the one hour and forty five minutes it would take me to get there. But there was something during my last trip that made me excited to go to Davao again. And the reason is this cozy little new restaurant called Kusina Selera. In a city filled with seafood and grilled (ihaw-ihaw) places, the new resto comes like a breath of fresh air. It was opened only last May and seeks to specialize in Filipino fusion dishes. It forms part of a compound which includes a ... Continue Reading...
Crabstick omelette bento

Karaniwan, pag sinabi mong dry o "tuyo," walang appeal sa atin, pero na-enjoy ko talaga ang trip na ito dahil may halong adventure at communion with nature. Ito ang landscape bago namin narating ang bulkan na ultimong may emerald lake. ... Continue Reading...
Chocolate overload in Cebu
After our dessert overload in Bacolod, it's now time for my little chocolate interlude in Cebu. It's not really intentional. Just so happened that when every time I asked the waitstaff about the house bestseller, they always pointed to chocolate cakes on their glass display counter. Don't ask me which among Bacolod and Cebu won in the dessert category. The only thing I can say for certain is that overloading on their sweets can make you (willingly) fat :D I have to admit that since Cebu is a bigger city, the food scene there is more exciting. In fact, I wanna go ... Continue Reading...
