Margaret River Day 1 – Rooftop Apartment

When we decided to go to Perth Rochelle and Chris did some research on where else we can go. They stumbled onto Margaret River. I’m glad they did. Margaret River is surrounded by beautiful beaches, caves, wineries and so many other natural and man made sights. We did an exhaustive search on where to stayContinue reading “Margaret River Day 1 – Rooftop Apartment”

Singapore Airlines food- Manila to Perth

. All the pictures starting today were taken with my new toy, the Panasonic G1. It was heavy to lug it at times but the pictures were worth it. We took flight SQ 917 from Manila to Singapore.

I’m back!

I just got home tonight from Singapore. The Singapore airlines flight was great as usual.

But the elation I felt was immediately squashed when I saw hordes of people in the middle of theContinue reading “I’m back!”

Dinner at California Pizza Kitchen

After watching Angels and Demons last Friday we went to CPK for dinner. For me it’s the best, albeit expensive pizza in Manila. These pictures were taken by my trusty assistant Wilson using my new Panasonic G1 camera. We ordered this neapolitan pizza which had an ultra thin crust. This was truly fabulous. All theContinue reading “Dinner at California Pizza Kitchen”

Dinner at Via Mare

We had an impromptu girls night out the other day. The venue was Rockwell and the only choice to eat at was Via Mare. Well Pat requested it since she still craved for Filipino food. I didn’t mind since I always crave for Via Mare’s bibingka. Their pancit luglog was a big disappointment. It didn’tContinue reading “Dinner at Via Mare”

My New Toy – Panasonic Lumix G1

I was obsessed about the Panasonic Lumix G1 for months. I’ve never considered getting a dslr before because of the weight until I saw this gorgeous, red, petite dslr that’s not a dslr. But that’s a long story. So I finally gave in and ordered it from B&H photo. Ariel brought it home for meContinue reading “My New Toy – Panasonic Lumix G1”

Interesting Fast Food at Robinson’s Galleria

Robinson’s Galleria is another mall in Ortigas Center that’s even nearer to my store. We are lucky or unlucky to have 3 big malls- SM Megamall, Robinson’s Galleria and Shangri-la Plaza and 1 small one- The Podium in the area. Imagine the traffic jam when all these malls go on sale at the same time.IContinue reading “Interesting Fast Food at Robinson’s Galleria”
