Manila – Page 23 – Shoot First Eat Later

Lunch at Gotti’s

I’m very easy to invite to eat out. Just send me a text and I’ll be there. That’s what my high school friends did. They were kind enough to treat me for their birthday. Who am I to say no? There are so many restaurants in SM Megamall’s atrium that I haven’t tried so IContinue reading “Lunch at Gotti’s”

Buffet at Marriott Cafe

Another hotel another buffet. I’m not a big fan of buffets but I was eager to see Resort World and Marriott Hotel. As far as I know this is the only buffet in Manila that had free iced tea and 4 kinds too. There was the St. Patrick’s iced tea which was green and tooContinue reading “Buffet at Marriott Cafe”

Lunch at Jasmine, New World Hotel

I had always wanted to try Jasmine the new Chinese restaurant at the New World Hotel in Makati. When I got the invitation from my friend to eat lunch at Jasmine on a holiday Monday last October I enthusiastically said yes. There were 6 adults for lunch and we ordered mostly dim sum, soup, 1Continue reading “Lunch at Jasmine, New World Hotel”

Golden Spoon Frozen Yogurt

The only good thing about my birthday dinner at Cantinetta last September was dessert after at Golden Spoon Frozen Yogurt. Before I even tried Golden Spoon I already heard from some friends that it didn’t taste like yogurt, it wasn’t tart, etc. When I tried it I loved it! For me it was like eatingContinue reading “Golden Spoon Frozen Yogurt”

Dinner at Cantinetta

Cantinetta has been around for quite a while in Makati. I only got the chance to try it last September when we went to their Podium branch to celebrate my birthday. There were very few people that night. We were off to a good start. The complimentary bread was warm and crisp and the liverContinue reading “Dinner at Cantinetta”

Dinner at Omakase

Last November 2 of my college friends who shared the same birthday treated us for their birthday. Sorry guys it was an all girls night out. It’s funny but I pass by Omakase in Greenhills every single day on the way to work but it was my first time to eat there. Tes and IContinue reading “Dinner at Omakase”

Army Navy Burger + Burrito

Last October Army Navy Burger + Burrito opened right across the building where my store was. I was so excited to try it. Since my favorite fast food burger, Hotshots closed their branch in the same street I didn’t have any place nearby to get my burger fix. Army Navy and Yellow Cab pizza areContinue reading “Army Navy Burger + Burrito”

Lunch at A Taste of L.A. Cafe

It was Db’s turn to treat Rochelle and me for her birthday and she chose to have lunch at A Taste of L.A. I was surprised to learn that it was still open. The last time I ate there was in the late 90s. When DB suggested A Taste of L.A. I had my doubtsContinue reading “Lunch at A Taste of L.A. Cafe”

Sunday Buffet at Senju

We couldn’t get a reservation at Inagiku, Shangri-La Makati’s Japanese restaurant so we decided to try Senju at Edsa Shangri-La. Just like Inagiku, Senju had a wide variety of sushi, sashimi and cold salads. They were good too but not as creative and fabulous as the ones at Inagiku. California Maki This was my favoriteContinue reading “Sunday Buffet at Senju”

Dinner at Cyma

After appetizers at Sumo Sam my college buddies and I moved to Cyma for our main meal. Cyma is one of those restaurants where I know I can always get a good and consistent meal. It’s been around for several years and is still going strong. The dip was very garlicky and tasted like creamContinue reading “Dinner at Cyma”
