Dinner at Orris

Last August I was in Los Angeles for only 2 nights and my cousin and his family arrived on my second day there. We had to make up for lost time. We had to leave my two adorable nephews behind and went to dinner 30 minutes away. As my cousin Sidney told me years ago,Continue reading “Dinner at Orris”

Oishi Wafu & Strip Fries

I love Oishi’s products. I’ve featured their gourmet picks potato chips and Sponge, Plunge and Pillows. I’m not connected in anyway to Oishi except that my cousin Kevin works there. He always gives me the heads up on their new products so I can order and sell it in my store, Small Office Solutions. LastContinue reading “Oishi Wafu & Strip Fries”

Dinner at Red Lobster

When I went Los Angeles last August for the last leg of my US trip I stayed with my cousin Sidney in Valencia which was about 30 minutes from L.A. Unfortunately when I arrived his family was still on vacation in Napa. Good thing I had yaya Lorna for company. We went to the nearbyContinue reading “Dinner at Red Lobster”

Lunch at 26 Beach

Just by looking at this burger you can probably guess that I was in Los Angeles. After spending more than 6 weeks in the USA last June to August my trip was about to end in L.A. If you’ve been following my blog I started out my trip in San Francisco and ate my wayContinue reading “Lunch at 26 Beach”

Dinner at Vapiano

Happy Valentine’s Day everyone! For my last meal in Virginia I chose to eat at Vapiano. Sharon and I already ate there a week before but I didn’t have my camera with me. I liked it so much that we went back with La and her kids so I could shoot and eat again. VapianoContinue reading “Dinner at Vapiano”

Lunch at Founding Farmers

After visiting Newseum I walked to the restaurant my cousin Sharon chose for us to have lunch at. Sharon told me I could take the bus or the Metro but I decided to walk the 14 blocks from 6th St. to 20th St. It didn’t look that far from Google maps which said I wouldContinue reading “Lunch at Founding Farmers”

Newseum

Last July 2010 I went to the USA for an extended vacation. After more than 4 weeks of shopping and eating in Virginia and DC it was time for a break. I went to Newseum, a museum dedicated to news and journalism. The night before I did some research on their web site and foundContinue reading “Newseum”

Palaganas Bakery and Carlo’s Pizza

After reading Lori’s entry on a bakeshop that sold raisin bread better than Baguio Country Club’s famous raisin bread we went looking for it. We got a little lost following Lori’s instructions. So here’s how we got there. After exiting Camp John Hay’s Loakan gate turn left and after approximately 1.5 km you will seeContinue reading “Palaganas Bakery and Carlo’s Pizza”

Lunch at Wood Nymph Korean Restaurant

While doing research on where to eat in Baguio I saw Lori’s glowing review on Wood Nymph Korean restaurant. So after our visit to BenCab Museum we headed there at around 2:00 pm. Korean bean paste and sesame oil w/ pepper dipping sauces It looked fatty but it was actually leaner than the beef afterContinue reading “Lunch at Wood Nymph Korean Restaurant”

BenCab Museum

Back to another Baguio post! Contrary to popular belief we didn’t go to Baguio just to eat, eat and shop. We also took in some culture by visiting the Bencab Museum. Although we took more pictures of ourselves in the museum than actually look at the artwork. The entrance fee to the museum was P100Continue reading “BenCab Museum”
