    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…

    Enjoy affordable Japanese eats at Kaito Japanese Carinderia in Makati

    I looooove Japanese cuisine, though I haven’t been to Japan yet (omg, I just realized I have to go there soon). But I know I’m having an authentic Japanese dish when Japanese friends invite me to a Japanese restaurant. I’m not sure about you, but I noticed Japanese people are a bit picky on what they eat and are very sensitive on different spices we commonly use for our Pinoy meals. So I am really a fan of those who can pull off a full-menu fusion of not just dishes but flavors from different cuisines and cultural taste. Most of the good (and even best) Japanese restaurants in the Philippines…

    Forever FavorEATS: 9 creative MESA dishes we love

    Filipinos are admittedly “foodies” in nature. We love cooking, we love trying out unusual dishes, we eat out and get inspirations from different foreign cuisines we love. In fact, people from around the world are starting to fall in love with our Pinoy food favorites as well. How cool is that? Since the market of the food industry is growing fast, it really is fortunate that we Filipinos don’t just love eating, but we are also passionate about leveling up our Pinoy cooking resulting in many innovative dishes offering world-class flavors and quality. Just notice those Pinoy restaurants that are operating for decades already and still attracting new customers while…

    Finally experienced love at first bite with Fat Fook Kitchen

    Taiwanese cuisine has many variations, and just like what we enjoy with Pinoy food, it also got its flavorful taste from the influences of different Asian countries like China and Japan. What’s more interesting about Asian cuisine? The distinctive and mouth-watering taste of Asian spices. Not craving yet? Well, aside from Savor Restaurant and Skewered from different parts of Asia, today, I am glad to share that I fell hard in love once again with Asian cuisine. All thanks to Fat Fook Kitchen. (P.S. I fall in love with food every single day, tbh. Lol.) By the way, we already are transferring to the new building! I haven’t mentioned this…

    Lunch At Nono’s

    Hmmmmkay. So Nono’s has been making noises since they expanded and built more branches. Many blogger friends have attended events in some of their branches and almost everyone is saying Nono’s food is indeed good. Did you know that Nono’s started it all off with a classic cake? One of her famous work is Nono’s Chocolate Oblivion, named after her father. Right now, Chef Baba Ibazeta Benedicto is focusing not only on desserts, but comfort food in general. Currently, Nono’s have four active branches in Makati, Quezon City, Muntinlupa, and Mandaluyong. And the one I’ve just visited was in Three Central, Salcedo, Makati, which is just a couple of kilometers from…
