El Mundo Cafe: a new place for your “me time”
Imagine your life as a big, colorful mosaic and “me time” is the dazzling little gem that brings it all together. It’s that little window when you hot pause from life’s demands, you dive into your favorite book (or just some random read), binge that series guilt-free, or simply savor a quit cup of coffee (or in my case, with a plate or two of yummy meals). And sometimes, the literal place you go matters. Again, in my case, I like staying in a hotel. This time, I tried the U Hotel in Makati and I really enjoyed their El Mundo Cafe. Since I started vlogging, I take more videos…

Good food and good memories at Cafe Janealo, Intramuros
In 2018, we discovered this cafe just beside the Manila Cathedral. We got together there with my family and closest friends to celebrate over lunch Mnemo’s baptism. It’s called Cafe Janealo. And I visited there twice more after the baptism lunch, but since the pandemic lockdown, I think it’s just now that we got to eat there again. We planned to have a picnic in Fort Santiago, but the rain came killing the joy. So we hopped restos instead. A little bit. We had our coffee at Papa Kape inside the Fort Santiago, and for dinner, we checked out the new Cafe Janealo which felt nostalgic lol kala mo katagal…

Coffee and chill at Papa Kape, Fort Santiago, Manila
The City of Manila is one of our go-to places and if my family and I feel like picnic-ing, we go to the famous Intramuros. It was a very sunny day in Pasay and we thought let’s go have a picnic and enjoy the sunny/windy feels in Manila. Twelve kilometers after, the rain came and we never had the chance to sit on the grass and enjoy a cup of coffee or whatever. Good thing is, as we walked along Fort Santiago we saw this new coffee shop which apparently just opened first quarter of this year. The ground was still wet, but at least we found a home at…

Family Valentine Dinner at Neil’s Kitchen, Glorietta
I’ve read sooo many good reviews about this restaurant in Alabang. Good food, good ambiance, perfect for all kinds of dinner dates with our loved ones. However, it’s too far from our place (probably will cost me 700php+ per Grab trip) so I wasn’t able to visit the restaurant with my family. So I was super excited when I learned they’re opening a branch in Glorietta, Makati, where I and my family usually go when we’re bored at home. I mean yey andito na yung sinasabi nilang masarap! Plus my sister really loved the food there and in fact suggested it for our next family food trip. Sitting just beside…
