I have a love/hate relationship with pizza. I love it to death but I hate the fat and calories that come with it. I did the ultimate sacrifice by not eating pizza for 1 year and now it’s time to get reacquainted with an old love. Where else should I celebrate this momentous occasion butContinue reading “A Slice of Pizza Love @ Nolita”

Dinner at Tanabe Japanese Restaurant
Before watching Lady Gaga’s concert last May we went to Mall of Asia for dinner. Deb asked me where I wanted to eat. I asked her if the Japanese restaurant I ate at when Mall of Asia was newly opened was still around. She excitedly said, “Yes, Tanabe is still open!” To say I wasContinue reading “Dinner at Tanabe Japanese Restaurant”
Dinner at El Cirkulo
In Manila new restaurants open and close as fast as you can blink. Some restaurants are so popular that they reach their peak too soon and lose business in a year or so. In my opinion restaurants which serve consistently good food stay open much longer. Such is the case with El Cirkulo.Whenever the questionContinue reading “Dinner at El Cirkulo”
Dinner at Brasserie CiÇou
The first and last time I ate at Restaurant CiÇou in Makati was in 2010. I really liked the food despite lots of mixed reviews I’ve heard and read. I was sad when they closed since I wasn’t able to go back.When I heard they opened a new restaurant in Greenhills I was ecstatic. ImagineContinue reading “Dinner at Brasserie CiÇou”
Breakfast Buffet at Shangri-La’s Boracay Resort & Spa
I would never deliberately pay for breakfast buffet since I always eat a simple and boring breakfast and all the choices would simply overwhelm me and tempt me beyond reason. But since buffet breakfast at Shangri-La Boracay’s Vintana restaurant was included with the room I might as well enjoy myself.The small shots of mango lycheeContinue reading “Breakfast Buffet at Shangri-La’s Boracay Resort & Spa”
What I Ate in Shangri-La’s Boracay Resort & Spa

Lunch at Boracay Crab House
As soon as I finished taking pictures of the rooms at Shangri-La’s Boracay Resort and Spa we hightailed out of there for a much needed late lunch. We couldn’t wait for the resort’s free shuttle so we hired their van to take us Escondido Beach Resort to eat at Boracay Crab House. The van droppedContinue reading “Lunch at Boracay Crab House”
Breakfast Buffet at Discovery Shores Boracay
I eat low fat yogurt with fresh fruit every single day. The only time I let loose is when I stay in a hotel that has buffet breakfast included. I was so excited to show you the pictures of Shangri-La’s Boracay Resort and Spa that I forgot to post the breakfast buffet at Discovery Shores’Continue reading “Breakfast Buffet at Discovery Shores Boracay”

We hadContinue reading “Shangri-La’s Boracay Resort & Spa”
Dinner at Kasbah, Boracay
One of the best things I liked about Kasbah was it’s location. It’s right next to the Discovery Shores hotel where we stayed. We didn’t need to go where the crowds were. A short walk on the beach with the cool breeze blowing our hair and in a minute we were there. It was myContinue reading “Dinner at Kasbah, Boracay”
