We all know that one of the must-tries when visiting Cebu is Rico’s lechon. In fact, Rico’s is very famous, it already became a reason why we go to Cebu. But hey, there’s no need to fly out from Manila as Rico’s is now in the Metro! One of the newest branches of Rico’s is in Glorietta Complex, Makati, in case you’re craving for roasted pig and its crispy skin. Well, there’s more than that crispy skin and juicy meat.

Unleash your inner “camper” at CAMP Curry at Ayala Triangle, Makati
I am a traveler myself and I looove camping. At our age, you gotta make the most out of life, try being adventurous, and experience new things before you run out of time. It’s been actually more than a year since I last escaped the city life and hiked and camped. So the news that we were going to experience “camping” in the city made me really excited. If I’m not mistaken, this is the first and only campsite-themed restaurant in Makati, specifically within CBD (Central Business District). Located in Ayala Triangle Gardens, CAMP Curry is perfect for travelers like me (and for non-travelers as well) to experience the camping vibes…

Find your new Pinoy food favorites in Savor Park Cafe in Makati
The usual Filipino food is usually a variety of influences from different countries such as Spanish, Chinese, Malay, Indian, American and many more. Coming from these inspirations we came up to signature dishes like adobo (usually chicken or pork marinated in a soy-vinegar base) and lechon (roasted pig). Filipino cuisine goes beyond meat, though. People appreciate seafood dishes as well as vegetables and even fruit. Since the country is very wealthy of spices, we can cook almost everything from delicious bowls of soup and plates of crispy-fried produce. Since Filipino favorites are usually served all over each and every area in Manila, some of us are honestly getting tired of…

We all are already familiar with Tim Hortons coffee and sweet treats. But did you also know that they offer great sandwiches and wraps available all day at any of their branches? On a busy weekday, we got to try their Chipotle Chicken Wrap (140php) which is quite touched by Mediterranean flavor, and their Italiano Bagel (180php) which quickly became one of our favorites.

Other than the dishes we tried, they also offer Chicken Bacon Ranch Wrap, Tuna Wrap, Steak and Cheese Panini, and Tuscan Chicken Panini. If you haven’t…

Jipan: more than just bread and coffee
Jipan is well-known as one of the homes of good breads and other pastries. I mean, no one can deny that Japanese breads are one of the most loved pastries in the market – soft, tasty, and affordable. Itching for new eats in the metro? Me and my sis never thought of dining in JiPan like ever because we knew it only with their breads. Jipan, apparently, is a cafe/ bakeshop offering authentic and quality Japanese food served fresh on the table. From breads, to sushi, ramen, even mochi donuts. I have to say that this is one of the best Japanese cafes I’ve ever been to. Glorietta is one of our…
